Eva Mendes crossing the street

Harley Pasternak is everywhere and his 5-Factor Diet is everywhere else. The Hollywood trainer extraordinaire has been behind the behinds of stars like Eva Mendes, Alicia Keys and Jessica Simpson. Now, Harley is using the constant celebrity buzz surrounding his diet routine to push it on us normal folks. But is it really worth the money? Here’s what Harley had to say about his plan:

Harley Pasternak: You don’t have to be a celebrity to use this program. Truly. I designed the 5-Factor Diet to work with any hectic lifestyle — including YOURS hot mama!

It’s five meals and snacks spaced throughout your day. Before your eyes glaze over from seeing five meals — let me tell you, this good stuff is totally quick to prepare, and your family will totally love it too. Each recipe uses no more than five main ingredients, and prep time is always just five minutes long. I know it may not feel like you have five minutes in between ballet class, soccer practice and picking up dry cleaning — but in those five minutes you can lose weight and change your life.

As for exercise the five-day exercise plan is simple and quick, as well. Just five sessions that take just five minutes to do. No excuses sister, there are five minutes in your day to take care of yourself.

Before you dismiss this as another ‘eat carrot sticks and that’s it’ plan, let me tell you that a HUGE part of my 5-Factor Diet is the Cheat Day. For six days, you eat my way. Then on the seventh day — your way. Big Mac? Supersize! Huge gooey sundae with massive amounts of whipped cream? Scarf that sucker down at your kid’s birthday party. No reading labels, no counting calories, no meal planning — no diet crap. It’s designed to give you a break — and get you focused. You’ll get right back on the program the very next day. [Source]

Back when I was boxing, I always looked forward to the day after the fight because it’s when I got to gorge myself on all the stuff I had to cut out to cut weight. But now I’m not entirely sold on the cheat day idea and whether or not it’s a reality given the craziness of modern life. But maybe that’s just an excuse and I suppose the diet is working for people. Best of luck building your diet empire, Harley!
