When tracking macros (actually tracking, not just loosely eyeballing it), many people still enjoy meal prepping.

I’m not a huge fan of leftovers, so I really like the “cook once eat twice” method. I always cook an extra serving of dinner, weigh it out, and pack it for my lunch the next day.

Tonight for dinner I made Parmesan crusted buffalo chicken (so easy!), jasmine rice, and steamed broccoli.

For the chicken, I used my ninja foodi on the air crisp setting (air fryer). Coat chicken breasts in buffalo sauce (I use franks red hot, great macros). Sprinkle coated chicken breasts with Parmesan (I use the kind you would sprinkle on pizza, that comes in a shaker. It ends up with a bread-crumb like consistency, and has little fat so doesn’t impact the macro count of the chicken very much). Air fry at 375° until chicken is completely done and crispy on the outside. I use thin sliced chicken breasts so usually 23-25 minutes.

Easy peasy, delicious, nutritious!

If you want to build muscle, you have to eat protein.

If you want to have a “toned” look, you have to build muscle.

If you have more muscle mass, your metabolism is higher.

If you have a higher metabolism, you can eat MORE!

No amount of dieting is going to pay off if you’re under eating protein.

If you’re losing weight because you’re in a calorie deficit (required to lose) but you’re also in a protein deficit, chances are you’re losing the muscle mass you already have, along with a little bit of body fat.

This means: your metabolism is SLOWING DOWN. So you’re going to have to either do more exercise, eat less food, or both, to continue to lose weight or maintain the weight loss you have already accomplished.

Ever wonder why people diet, lose weight, gain it back, over and over and over?

Because the majority of people are under-muscled. You MUST eat protein and you MUST build muscle in order to be able to sustain a healthy body, and a diet that allows you to eat enough to fuel that healthy body!

Working out makes you a better:
Spouse
Parent
Friend
Employee
Employer
Neighbor

Think about it!

Resistance training makes you stronger both physically and mentally.

It makes you feel happier than when you started.

It allows an outlet for you to release sadness, anger, and anxiety in a healthy way.

It increases your confidence.

What’s not to love? These benefits (and more) are all available to you immediately. And free! You don’t have to have a gym to get started. Because at first, body weight is enough resistance.

The only thing keeping you from unlocking all of these benefits is…. You! Get started today! Change your life in a positive way!

Greers Ferry! Summer break is here!! If I hosted a couple of group fitness classes (outdoors), would week day mornings OR Saturday mornings work best? 1 hour long classes.

Equipment needed: a towel or yoga mat, water.

I would provide resistance bands, light dumbbells, kettlebells, etc.

Me: I’m going to take some great photos to go along with my infographics!
Also me: doesn’t 🤔😋

Last year I read atomic habits by and then I didn’t really implement changes to systems the way I should have.

Sooo here we are, in a hectic season of life where so much is changing— I’m reading it again!

Have you read this incredible book? Are you finding success in making small changes to implement healthier habits or break bad ones? 🙂

Picture it: You've been going HAM for 2 weeks in the gym, hitting your macros (or sticking to your meal plan), and you're just so, so proud of yourself. You feel AMAZING.

And then, you step on the scale. WTF? Your weight actually went UP? Or maybe its not as dramatic as all that, but you didn't lose a single stupid pound.

Sound familiar? I hear it all the time. It sucks to be tied to a number! So today I want you to think about ditching the scale (you'll be so much happier) and using pictures, measurements, and how your clothes fit as your guide.

Exercise puts stress on your muscle fibers, causing micro tears, or micro trauma. The body's healing reaction is to retain water, which can cause your actual body weight to go up. Talk about mind games!

My favorite way to track progress is through pictures. I take measurements monthly for my clients, but I encourage them to take progress photos weekly.
