Consistency is ๐Ÿ”‘

A beautiful garden doesnโ€™t become beautiful by accident. It needs constant tending - watering, weeding, fertilizing, etc. You must consistently work on the things it needs to grow.

Your health and fitness is no different... You canโ€™t do the work only on the days you feel motivated. It takes consistent effort, day in and day out to see results.

You miss a day? No worries. Do the work the next day, and the next. Now go out there and kick some ass today. You owe it to yourself. ๐Ÿ‘Š๐Ÿผ

None of these trends or tactics will work UNLESS this allows you to create a calorie deficit; consuming less calories than your body burns per day. If it doesnโ€™t, I hate to say it but youโ€™re spinning your wheels. And I donโ€™t want that for you.

This is why I stress the importance of tracking your calories. If not, itโ€™s like trying to save money without knowing how much youโ€™re spending... ๐Ÿ˜ฌ๐Ÿคฆโ€โ™‚๏ธ

What gets measured gets managed.

Need help figuring out where to start?

Not sure how many calories you should be eating to lose weight?

๐Ÿ”ฅWhy protein is crucial for muscle gain:

If you want to gain muscle, getting in the gym and lifting weights is step 1.

2nd priority? - adequate protein intake.

If youโ€™re not consuming enough protein, youโ€™re missing out on muscle gain... putting in all of that effort & time with less return on your investment. No bueno. ๐Ÿ‘Ž๐Ÿผ

Remember: lifting weights does NOT build muscle, itโ€™s BREAKS down muscle. Itโ€™s m protein (the building blocks of muscle) and proper recovery that BUILDS muscle.

Lifting weights creates the stimulus.
Protein & recovery builds the muscles.

Muscle gain occurs when rates of protein synthesis exceeds protein breakdown.

When dieting (in a calorie deficit), protein breakdown is higher, meaning protein intake must be higher (which is the reason I have my clients consume a high-protein diet when their goal is fat loss). The goal is to build/retain as much muscle as possible, while losing fat (not muscle) to get the โ€œtoned lookโ€ weโ€™re all after.

I recommend 1 gram of protein per pound of body weight (or goal body weight) per day.

Example: A 160 pound person would aim to consume 160 grams of protein each day.

160 g / 5 (3 meals & 2 snacks) = roughly
30 grams of protein at each feeding.

๐Ÿ‘€ Take a look below to see how reaching this goal is easier than you think. Thereโ€™s also a photo below showing you what 30 grams of protein looks like in different foods. ๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿผ๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿผ

A few tips to hit your protein intake:
1. Prioritize protein at each meal.
2. If you track your food intake with an app like Myfitnesspal, log your protein intake 1st for each of your meals.

3. Start your day with a high protein meal.

4. Increase your portion sizes at meal times. If you usually have 4oz of chicken at a meal, up it to 6 or 8oz.

5. Have a protein shake with or between meals. Not only will this help increase your protein intake, but if you have a delicious tasting protein powder, it can be a great way to crush a sweet craving after or between a meal!

The goal is to find the strength to take care of yourself for yourself so you can live and happy and healthy life.

If thatโ€™s not motivating enoughโ€ฆ do it for your kids or future kids. Donโ€™t set them up to fail because of your poor choices.

Your kids will follow your example, not your advice.

Long answer:
Many people (especially females) are afraid that if they lift weights, they will inherently get bulky. Which is not the physique most women view as desirable. Majority of women want to look lean, toned, and sexy - right?

So why not do those โ€œtoningโ€ workouts we see in magazines, Instagram, and all over the internet?

๐Ÿšจ Spoiler alert: those outer thigh kicks arenโ€™t toning anything. Same goes for the butt kick backs on the stairmaster.

Simply put, weight training is for building muscle. Not bulky muscle, or toned muscle. Resistance training builds lean muscle tissue.

The tone or bulk comes fromโ€ฆ.๐Ÿฅ๐Ÿฅ
๐Ÿฅโ€ฆ. Your diet!

Most people who are classified as โ€œbulkyโ€ have a higher percentage of body fat, which is the result of eating more calories than the body needs to maintain its current state.ย  Therefore, nutrition is the biggest factor in becoming โ€œbulkyโ€. If you eat more calories than you burn off, youโ€™ll get bigger.

And you guessed it, if you consume less calories than your body burns than youโ€™ll lose fat, resulting in a more defined, toned physique.

If youโ€™re struggling to get the ideal physics you desire, hiring a personal trainer and/or nutrition coach who can properly and effectively help you set up a tailored workout regime and set a calorie and macronutrient breakdown customized to your goals will fast track your progress and get you results!
