Part 2: The big mistake behind her fat gain 👇 Comment ‘Clients’
Remember the lady who ate 100g protein every day but still gained body fat (36.8% → 38.5%)? Here’s what was going wrong.
For her height, body weight, body type and activity level, 100g of protein was TOO much. Social media keeps telling us “eat more protein to build muscle,” but more protein alone doesn’t give you more muscle.
Muscle is built during RECOVERY. Strength training creates micro tears in your muscle fibres, and when your body repairs them while you sleep and rest, that’s when you gain muscle.
We corrected her macros, her exercise load and that’s when she started losing fat without losing muscle.
