I’m adjusting my calories to expose a little bit of abs. We all have abs but they are covered with fat. Every human being has the same situation. To show a bit of insight on how I’m doing that here is my new plan.
I’m currently 205lbs.
Goal: Lose approximately 5–10 pounds while maintaining muscle and training performance.
My current maintenance calories are around ~2800 calories. That’s 205 (my weight) x 14 (calories per lbs of bodyweight)
New daily totals:
Calories: ~2,300 (this puts me in a caloric deficit)
Protein: ~200-220
Carbohydrates: ~180-200g
Fat: ~65g
Meal 1
4 whole eggs, 1 cup egg whites,
1 cup oatmeal, 1 banana.
Approx. 700 calories, 55g protein.
Meal 2
8 oz grilled chicken, 1 cup rice, 1 cup broccoli.
Approx. 550 calories, 60g protein.
Meal 3 (Pre-Workout)
1 scoop whey protein, 1 bagel.
Approx. 350 calories, 30g protein.
Meal 4
8 oz lean ground beef (93%), 250g potato, vegetables.
Approx. 500 calories, 55g protein.
*here I’ll probably be getting less calories due to my subscription to Hungry Root. The meals I get from that delivery service are usually less than 500.
Meal 5
1 cup Greek yogurt, 1 scoop whey protein. Approx. 200 calories, 40g protein.
I have a 5 day weight training program that will be done between clients around 330-5pm
Walking Goal
Week 1: 6,000 steps/day
Week 2: 8,000 steps/day
Week 3+: 10,000+ steps/day
I’m slowly increasing daily movement to create additional calorie expenditure rather than cutting food
excessively.
