The Paper Towel Theory was popularized by Bob White.
Bob creating the Paper Towel Theory.
Get two identical rolls of paper towels. Put one on the left and one on the right.
The left side is you at the beginning of your fat loss process. Think of this as your “before” photo. It will remain unchanged.
The right side is you in real time during your fat loss process. The core of the roll represents lean you. The paper towels are the fat that’s covering lean you.
Each day, after successfully following your fat loss protocol, you tear off one sheet from the roll on the right. This represents a tiny bit of fat lost. At the end of the week, do a side-by-side comparison. What do you see?
NO NOTICEABLE DIFFERENCE!
That’s right— the two rolls look exactly the same.
“BUT, STEVE, I STUCK TO MY NUTRITION PLAN, WORKED OUT THREE TIMES, WALKED MORE, SLEPT WELL! WTF! THIS ISN’T WORKING! YOU’RE A THIEF AND A LIAR! YOU’RE IN CAHOOTS WITH BIG PAPER TOWEL! BIRDS AREN’T REAL!”
Easy does it… Take my hand and step back from that ledge, my friend.
After questioning your entire existence you agree to trust the process for another week. This week you obsessively compare the two rolls, sometimes many times per day.
At the end of the week, you’re seven sheets closer to lean you. Still no major difference visually. BUT… you feel great. So you decide to stay on the path.
Weeks go by. You tear off more sheets and make more deposits into your Health Savings Account. You’re living your life and realize you haven’t even compared the rolls in a month.
“Ah, what the hell… let me take a look at the side-by-side...”
HOLY SHIT!
You’re noticeably leaner, stronger, sexier, more confident, your crop tops fit better… you’re feeling great — better than ever, actually.
“He’s just a friend from work…”
You continue following your systems & processes— the EXACT SAME systems & processes that got you this far (with minor tweaks along the way)…
Then, one day, there are no more sheets to tear off. You’re lean you! Congratulations!
“Ok, now what?”
Lift weights, carry groceries. To maintain lean you, do the same stuff that got you here. It’s paramount that your health & fitness systems are enjoyable & maintainable forever. There’s no going back. It’s an infinite game.
Key takeaways from Bob White’s Paper Towel Theory…
Fat loss is a slowww process. It’s one sheet at a time. Just keep tearing!
Trust the process. Don’t stress over the day-to-day changes (or lack thereof). You won’t notice visual changes for a while. That’s expected!
BE lean you right now. Make the same choices now that lean you makes when you’re lean you.

At the end of last week’s article “11 Things I learned by watching ‘Stephen Curry: Underrated’ & ‘Hot Ones’” I talked about improving my chin-ups.
I wrote: “I [almost] never went to failure. I usually stopped 1-2 reps short of failure (you learn what this feels like by doing it). Instead, focus on making sure every rep is as close to perfect as possible. Remember that all exercises are learned skills and you get better at a skill by mastering the fundamentals and practicing with perfect technique. This translates into getting stronger.”
Well, the below video is a “typical” set for me and what “stopping 1-2 reps short of failure” looks like. I knew I was doing a drop-set beforehand. I got 5 good, clean, full range-of-motion reps with the 90’s and might have been able to get a sixth (but probably would’ve failed on 6).
Then I grabbed the 75’s (the only “rest” was switching out dumbbells) and got 4 more high quality reps, really focusing on squeezing/contracting my chesticles. I might have been able to get one more rep but my form would’ve suffered and injury risk would’ve increased.
