Even when hes not playing World of Warcraft for an audience of several thousand dedicated internet fans, Tucsonan Josh Lujan still treats his body like hes a character in a roleplaying game.

When youre gaming up and you get your character from level 10 to level 11, you feel really good, he said. Well, you can do that in real life, too. Im leveling up my food, my level of fitness, my muscle thickness. These are the metrics you can level up in real life.

While his undead mage, Xaryu, benefits from giant mana potions and conjured loaves of bread, Lujan frequently snacks on nachos, pizza and burgersbut you wouldnt be able to tell by looking at him.

To put it simply, he looks more like a lean knight in shining armor than some portly tavern barman.

Whats the secret behind Lujans physique? How does he spend a dozen hours a day on the computer and still look like Hercules? Like any good mage, hes got a few secrets up his sleeve. And like any mage worth his weight in spectral dust, he wrote all those secrets down in a book.

Luckily for us, hes willing to share.

Lujan recently released The Xaryu Cookbook, a collection of the meals he eats on a weekly basis along with step-by-step recipes and instructions for preparing each. Essentially, its a book Lujan wrote for his 14-year-old self.

Its all the stuff I like to eat, and we changed around the ingredients to make it healthier, Lujan said. Hopefully, these gamers, when theyre 14 or 16 years old and gaming all night long, instead of going and making nachos with nachos cheese and Tostitos, they make it in a way that actually helps keep them substantiated and healthy.

What do healthy nachos look like? Try rice thins instead of chips, reduced-fat, low-moisture mozzarella instead of that goopy, store-bought nacho cheese, some beans and well-seasoned chicken, salsa and lime.

All of the sudden the nachos that were previously almost no protein, pretty high carbohydrate and high fat become low fat, medium carb and high protein, Lujan said. Its a meal you can enjoy eating and actually make some gains with. Same thing with the burger, same thing with the pizza. We just mess with the macros, mess around with the ingredient list but still make it taste good.

I was thinking the same thing. No one cooks these days anymore. That's why obesity has risen so high.

You don't need a special title to tell people to work out. If they don't want to, they're not gonna.

He isn't telling people to work out, he is telling them to cook their own food and not be lazy and buy fast food. Make your own healthy nachos. Make your own healthy pizza. Etc.

Most of the more popular video game streamers are in decent shape at least weight wise. When I've got time and want to play video games for the next few days I'll eat maybe once a day if even.

Expected Henry Cavill again.

someone tweet this to boogie

i prefer my own exercise regimen when it doesn't rain. 5 miles of pokemon go per day (takes about 4 hours to complete) because all the stopping and catching.
easily can hit that with a few miles from the dog (we love that dog).
