About Steroids

Here’s a great visual by on how you should prioritize the different components of your fat loss efforts ????
⠀
1️⃣Calorie Deficit: Eating less calories than your body needs is the only way to lose fat - keep in mind that you should try to eat a variety of foods to ensure you get the necessary macros and micros you need to function at a high level
⠀
2️⃣Eat Enough Protein: to maintain muscle mass, to recover from workouts, to keep you full and satiated when you’re dieting and so you get toned aka you don’t turn “skinny fat”.
⠀
Note: If one has a substantial amount of weight to lose, you can use your GOAL weight rather than current bodyweight for the calculations in 1️⃣ and 2️⃣!
⠀
3️⃣Lift Weights: 2-5x a week! Don’t have access to a gym or weights right now? Using your bodyweight or resistance bands can work too!
⠀
4️⃣Sleep: 7-9 hours a night to recover, rest and keep your hunger levels in check. When you don’t sleep enough, your body will be hungrier. so get those Zzzs! ????
⠀
5️⃣Cardio, Movement, and 8-10k steps/day. Finding active hobbies you enjoy will keep you consistent and make it a lot more fun
⠀
☝️Find what works for you, your lifestyle, habits, and preferences. Focus on the BIG stuff and don’t let the little things distract you from the big picture
