This article focuses on my friend and co-worker Luke, a 22 year old member of the United States Air Force. We were recently deployed to Iraq together (a beautiful country in the Middle East) for 6 months and made it our mission to improve our bodies. Luke’s motivation (combined with my expertise and guidance) helped him lose 31 pounds over the coarse of that 6 months. He didn’t subscribe to any extreme weight loss methods or complicated plans. His secret: move more and eat less.
