WHEN you want to lose weight, the first thing you think to cut from your diet is fast food.
Forget the pizzas, burgers, fizzy drinks and sugary cakes for a while — not if you want to hit that target on the scale.
But one guy decided to buck the trend and took on the challenge of eating Domino’s every day for a year.
Brian Northrup took on the project in order to prove that you can stay healthy even if you indulge every single day.
The challenge, which he dubbed “PIZZAPOCALYPSE,” proved successful as he managed to actually lose weight and maintain his muscle tone.
Northrup documented the project on Instagram throughout the year.
In an interview with LadBible, Northrup explained he wanted to prove that diet isn’t everything when it comes to staying in shape.
Northrup explained he had heard a lot of fitness experts and doctors say that you “can’t outwork a bad diet,” but he believed they had underestimated what can be achieved with hard work.
“Just look at Michael Phelps; the man became arguably the greatest athlete in the world on a diet he claimed consisted of pizza as well as a lot of other commonly labelled ‘bad’ foods on a daily basis,” Northrup said.
“I think a good diet is highly dependent on the individual and it is more important to focus on making sure your diet includes everything you need, than what you need to cut out.”
Northrup took the precaution of having regular check-ups and insisted that his salt and cholesterol levels were both healthy.
He achieved the remarkable level of fitness with three to four weightlifting sessions every week and 20 to 30 minutes of cardio exercise a day.
