Yes. Eat less crappy food and more healthy meals in a caloric deficit. If you’re eating 5000cals of crap every day. Eating 2100 or 2200 cal a day and working out is going to help you lose weight. Starting off 200-500cal less is better than making a big jump

Don't let your age prevent you from getting started. I'm a 60 y/o woman and I made it a focus to work out with dumbbells 3x a week for 30 to 40 minutes - doing a full body superset workout. I've been doing this for 6 months and recently had an InBody scan. I've had these in the past and I have gained 5 lbs of muscle in 6 months!!! I feel like superwoman and this result motivates me to keep on doing this forever. I realize that I will not keep gaining lean muscle at this rate but I can definitely gain more and then maintain it. I'm 5'9" and 150lbs - I eat about 80 grams of protein a day and also ride my road bike 3x a week for 60 to 80km each time.

This is spot on. I am currently 7 weeks out of the gym due to surgery, I am eating less because I feel physically ill when I eat, the problem is I’ve lost weight I’ve lost muscle and now I’m thin when before i was quite muscular. I feel it in my energy levels, sleep disturbances, headaches and fatigue it’s all having a negative impact on my body. I am 54 and pre surgery I was the fittest and healthiest I’ve ever been, it was to the point people didn’t believe me when I told them I was in my 50s but now I feel it. Cutting calories to lose weight to gain muscle is not the way forward. I’ve no intention of staying this way, my come back will soon come round and I cannot wait to get back into the gym to lift and feel my body get strong again, my metabolism has slowed so much because I’m eating and moving less. Your videos keep my head focused on when I’m able to get back into the gym and begin to rebuild

Areas like our abs are the most stubborn and often the last to go so we generally just need to stay consistent for longer. But for body recomp it isn't just calories in vs calories out or workouts. And even eating too little, and doing too much wasted volume in our training can hold us back. Focus on those macros, especially protein. Truly most key...and I say this as someone who struggled to see ab definition for a long time despite training hard and "dieting!"

Good info makes sense but also hard to take in as so long been told to hardly eat anything. Plus the patients is the hard bit. We would all love to eat a lettuce leaf and wake up in the morning in great shape 😁. I’m peri menopausal so knowing I can do this but just need to change a few things to get the results I.e the protein intake is nice to know. Plus not to worry if the scale goes up while changing things. Plus be patient. 😁

It's hard to shift our mindset around things we've not only been told but DONE for potentially decades. But I think it is finding ways outside just the one outcome we want to measure success. It's taking pride even in habits done daily. That we FEEL better doing these things. Then it's measuring not just with the scale but with how clothing fits. How our lifts are in the gym...all the other things that show our habits paying off!

I have embraced the suck and stuck with it for over a year with reasonable consistency. This year, I've wound my training volume back because I was definitely over-training, plus I dropped a few things off my plate as I was chronically stressed. Hopefully, this year I'll see more results due to the changes I've made that pertain to my stress levels 🤷♀️ one of my gym rat friends told me that belly fat tends to be the last thing to shift... and he complimented me on my booty gains 🍑 so it's not all disappointing!!

If you've been losing and in a deficit for awhile, you may want to do a little "break" and increase. But you can sometimes even just see results by switching macros. Or by adjusting workouts. The key is small changes. And the last little bit is slow. A true plateau is no change for at least 4 weeks. And often with those last few pounds, and looking to see body recomp, you don't want to rush it. So the annoying answer may be, it may be about keeping going and even focusing on measuring to see inches changing over the scale.

Am I wrong to assume the higher our body fat body is, the more fat we loose compared to muscle? Surely the Body’s intelligence will burn fat as the dominant fuel source when we are in a calorie deficit as long as we are strength training to maintain our muscles? But the closer we get to our goal body composition we are more likely to loose a little muscle as well maybe when we are as a woman below 17% BF?

So yes you have to go slower the closer you get as you are more likely to lose muscle but unfortunately...no...our body will still do what it can to adapt the more severe the deficit.

Great question and honestly it may very much change over time with even different macro breakdowns and even as you build more muscle, what once was maintenance may become a deficit. The key is making sure you're eating to feel fueled in your training, see your performance improve, sleep well and then also be able to see that recomp happening.

How long you increase and how much is based on where you are currently and your goals and activity level, even age and previous dieting practices. It is also about increasing if you've been really low or in a deficit. And how long you've had them that low may also impact the process.

I totally disagree with your teachings. I personally ate 2000 calories a day worked out like crazy for 1 month and I didnt even lose 1lb. Then I cut my calories down to 1000 and I started losing weight like crazy. So yeah you're not telling the truth here. You're spreading lies and misinformation.
@redefiningstrengthOC

I'm not. And when you start to see that weight creep back on at that low calorie intake because you've created exactly the metabolic adaptations I mention in here, you will be searching for this exact video then as you'll have to retrain your body to eat more. You're seeing quick drops on the scale from glycogen depletion and water weight being lost. And yes some fat. But also MUSCLE. This will put you in the EXACT situation I'm trying to fight against with this video as I've had far too many clients come in after having done what you're doing now to lose...to regain the weight and still be eating less while trying to out exercise their diet. I just wanted to help save people the hard work and effort to ultimately be in that spot. So I wish you the best of luck but truly hope you reconsider that extreme deficit and those dieting practices for fad diet results.

At first, you'll lose weight with a deficit. However, one day a week, eat your maintenance calories. Your deficit should be no more than 500 calories less than your maintenance-with a minimum .8g protein per pound of weight to protect muscle. ✔️

Have you measured other areas? A calorie deficit is still key and one macro ratio isn't right for everyone. Making sure that your macros and calories match your activity level is key! And then tracking all areas over time. But often when we want to give up, focusing on a small tweak and keeping going is key!

Thank you for the great information! And the cute pups to close out the video. As a lifelong athlete, long-term weight loss (55 lbs over 23 years) menopausal woman, this is 100% spot on. What is healthiest for our metabolism often seems counterintuitive, but it works. At 57, muscle gains and recomp takes 9-11 months - whereas formerly, in my 30s-40s, only eight or nine weeks. And tracking intake has to be dead-on accurate, just as we incorporate progression into our workouts, we need to be as precise if not more so with our nutrition.

Thank you! And Kiwi and Sushi say thanks too! Love that you're focusing on meeting yourself where you are at. I think too we forget that the more advanced a trainee we are, which also happens with getting older, the slower results will be because our body has adapted to already be able to handle more. It's why we've gotten stronger, can run further, cycle faster...but it also means we need to then be more precise and make those 1% improvements at times that can pay off!

Two things, one that lion tank is the coolest clothes design Ive seen all year!! 🙂 And Ivr seen a lit of cool clothes. Actually youre looking like a Bruce Lee level of cool and I suspect why he got more famous than you is he didnt have all this compeition of content that exists these days. Second, what about caffeine as a metabolic drug? Most fitness people use it at the very least, it allows people do be in a slight calorie deficit and still feel like exercisimg whereas without it they would act more like tree sloth. 🙂 I include myself.in that too.

Thanks! It's actually a Tiger Muay Thai tank so they deserve all the credit. And Bruce Lee was far cooler although I may have better jokes. In terms of caffeine...I think it can be used strategically for short term benefits like in a mini cut BUT your body adapts. And if you're dependent on caffeine it honestly shows that something else in your lifestyle needs adjustment - whether you aren't eating enough, recovering well enough or sleeping enough.

hehe glad it helps! Nothing works forever in one form. And even if you've been pushing hard toward a goal for awhile, you may need a strategic break! But even so often we just give up when it feels like we've stalled over simply staying consistent. But do consider a little macro ratio adjustment or a slight switch in your progression. But keep going!
