?Golden Pyramid of Fat Loss ?⠀
??Have you been spinning your wheels trying to lose fat?⠀
⠀⠀
?For so long, I focused on the wrong thing. I wasn’t tuned into my diet, I was doing boatloads of cardio, not lifting weights, drinking skinny teas and taking fat burners. If it said “lose weight fast”, I probably tried it!⠀
⠀⠀
??Fast forward five years… and lots of mistakes later, I created this little pyramid for you guys so you know what to focus on when you are trying to tone up and lose fat.⠀
⠀⠀
⚠️Here’s the golden pyramid of fat loss for you guys! ⠀
1️⃣Calorie Deficit: Eating less calories than your body needs is the only way to lose fat!⠀
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”⠀
3️⃣Lift Weights: 2-5x a week! (usually 3-4 is a sweet spot for most people) don’t be afraid to go heavy, it WON’T make you bulky unless you eat too many calories⠀
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 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. Hope you have a kickass Friday! ????⠀
