⁣
My client here is a perfect demonstration on how eating more food can help you create more long term sustainable habits.⁣
⁣
Client Details: ⁣
⁣
Went from: ⁣
🌱Eating roughly 1600 calories to 2210 Calories while dropping inches⁣
🌱Strictly going to HIT classes to 2-3 strength sessions a week⁣
🌱Dropping about 20 lbs with proper nutrition protocols ⁣
⁣
⁣
How we went about this:⁣
⁣
We focused on habits first, and then started increasing her total intake as time went on.⁣
⁣
It’s important to understand as a coach and even as a client that MORE doesn’t always mean better. ⁣
⁣
Sometimes the thing that’s stopping you from achieving results is what you are currently doing…. Not what you are NOT doing. ⁣
⁣
^^ Read that twice. ⁣
⁣
When going about a transformation asking yourself:⁣
⁣
Can I handle more on your plate? ⁣
Can I take more time to go to the gym?⁣
Can I cook some more homemade meals?⁣
Can I take time to move my ass more during the day? ⁣
⁣
There will never be a one size fits all approach to Sustainable fat loss, it takes awareness, data analyzing, and executing on well periodized programs.⁣
⁣
But, with good time, a great coach, and two open ears, it can happen in due time. ⁣
⁣
If you feel like you are still running in circles; have lost weight but gained it back over-and-over again, not making progress in gym (let alone have a plan going to gym, or just want to learn more about your body…⁣

Quick and easy fix✌🏼 ⁣
⁣
⁣
⁣
I struggled with my weight for a LONG TIME. ⁣
⁣
Anda it wasn’t until I learned how important protein was for not only building muscle… but helping with maintaining a healthy weight! ⁣
⁣
In a world where, obesity rates are climbing higher than ever before. It’s important to understand the basic things you can do to help yourself out. ⁣
⁣
⁣
Here’s a little reminder of why protein should be something you make a habit out of: eating enough of it, getting a variety of different sources, and staying consistent. ⁣

Tips to help you keep more food on your plate ✌🏼⁣

The desire to lose weight, “eat less and exercise more” has been beaten into our brains for too long now by fitness, nutrition, and medical professionals. ⁣
⁣
This dogma has made the number of calories the dominant factor in our minds when it comes to weight gain, fat loss, let alone just eating in general! ⁣
⁣
Calories are the standout component on nutritional labels, diets, and food guides, as well as the deciding factor in many of our food choices when we are “dieting”⁣
⁣
As we’ve seen over the last decade, the weight loss equation of calories in versus calories out is oversimplified and, in most circumstances, just creates a bad relationship in the long run. ⁣
⁣
Yes, it is a great tool to understand your baseline and to move from there. But - metric driven as we humans are - we tend to take it a little far with it. ⁣
⁣
I’m a big proponent of ditching the calorie counter with my clients as they achieve their goals and are now ready to enjoy their hard work without being stuck on MyFitnessPal. ⁣
⁣
So, here are a few ways you can go about losing body fat without feeling the need to cut more and more food out of your life! ⁣

As a former 80lbs overweight guy...⁣
⁣
⁣
Here is my “360 Metabolic Reboot method” put to work after a long haul of trails and errors through the years. ⁣
⁣
⁣
Swipe right ➡️ then read on⁣
⁣
⁣
Story time first, as a lot of you may know I was once a heavy weight child; loved eating my donairs, pizza, and made sure of it to do it in front of the television. ⁣
⁣
With some family members being diabetic, I was constantly reminded of the repercussions that would soon follow my unending weight gain. ⁣
⁣
I won’t lie, the last thing I wanted to do was lose weight when people told me… especially my family. ⁣
⁣
There comes a time when enough is enough, and I had enough of wearing the clothes that didn’t fit me well, not feeling as energized as I know I could, and not feeling attractive to other people and more importantly myself. ⁣
⁣
This is not me telling you to lose weight, or start exercising more, this is my sharing my personal story with anyone who feels like they are alone in their journey. ⁣
⁣
I have nothing to sell you. ⁣
⁣
So, if there’s anyone who resonated with this, simply like this post, send us a message to have a great conversation on how I went about changing my life for the better, and the steps you can take to do the same.⁣
⁣
Always happy to give you the freedom to feel your finest. ⁣

A little down on my luck…⁣
⁣
Where to start?... Last week was my birthday and I got rear ended early that morning. ⁣
⁣
I was stopped at a red light when my car was hit from behind. The car was pretty much totalled. ⁣
⁣
Over the weekend my locker was broken into at a sports facility. I had my wallet, phone and keys stolen. Then I ran outside and of course the rental car was gone with more of my important belongings. ⁣
⁣
When these sort of things happen back to back, it’s hard not to look at everything as being “sh*tty" or having “bad luck”. And we think the world is against us etc...⁣
⁣
This is a reminder that life is not always going to go your way but there is always a way that to find light in these situations. ⁣
⁣
Of course it sucks, especially in the moment. But remember that sometimes the things you lose are just things that can be replaced. ⁣
⁣
⁣
Here’s to constant growth, becoming more responsive to a world that wants reactions out of you. And to a better week ahead (fingers crossed ha ha).⁣
⁣
Let’s have ourselves a great week ✨⁣

Thoughtful Thursday! -

Cannot believe it is already mid-July! With summer being halfway through I've been finding myself waiting to start building some more free resources when everyone gets back from vacation... But, I thought what the heck, since I've personally been enjoying a couple more drinks on the patio, eating a....
