About this episode
In this episode we talk about nutrition periodization and how to make your 'diet' cycle match your lifestyle so you can not only get results - but sustain them. Think of this in term of NFL season Right now the NFL players are in season > the season for nutrition is either cutting (dieting for weight loss/fat loss) or gaining (building muscle mass) Next they are going to be in postseason > this is maintenance / metabolic restoration *This is why we cycle between the two to make sure your body doesn't adapt to low calorie intake and we can only go lower to get more fat loss. Then they will be in off season > this is the event/ vacation/ mental break and here we may just work on continuing good habits/eating mindfully and relax on tracking food and focus on practicing the things you've learned . *What most of you have been doing during the holidays, having several wins around doing better than before and mostly maintaining progress :)) Then preseason comes and they start to prepare/practice > this is where we may begin to think about going back into a cutting phase, we don't just jump right back in because thats not always possible. So we may start to track food again, start to meal prep again, have conversations with family/support people. * What I want you to be doing this week as we head into the new year. Periodizing your 'diet' is essentially breaking up fat loss cycles into phases to match your lifestyle so it can be most effective while you enjoy life!
