Ep. #559: Here’s the Best Diet Plan to Follow During the COVID-19 Quarantine


Listen Later

It’s hard to believe that just a few weeks ago, life was business as usual.

Now, we’re just a few weeks into the COVID-19 lockdown, and it’s looking like this will be the “new normal” for at least another few months.

And us fitness folks are having a time of it.

For one thing, you have to work out from home, and if that weren’t bad enough, some grocery stores are running out of stock on meat, vegetables, fruit, and other healthy staples.

So you’re probably wondering, how the heck are you supposed to eat healthy through this mess?

Should you cut, bulk, or maintain?
And how are you supposed to avoid overeating?

You’ve probably seen news stories about people binge eating junk food to mollify their frayed nerves, and others grazing throughout the day to mitigate their boredom, leading some people to call weight gained during the lockdown the “quarantine 15” or “COVID-15.”

Well, the good news is that if you know what you’re doing, eating healthy during the quarantine is bat . . . er . . . duck soup.

In this podcast, you’ll learn exactly how you should diet to not only avoid getting fat, but to maintain your muscle mass and even lose fat while stuck inside.

Let’s get started!

2:18 - Should I be cutting during quarantine?

12:03 - Should I be lean bulking during quarantine?

19:08 - How can I avoid overeating?
