šŸ’„ MASTERCLASS WAITLIST: ā For individuals |ā  ā For coachesā 

Wanting to gain muscle and lose fat (what we can also call ā€œbody recompositionā€) drives many of the folks I work with. So weā€™re talking about it, getting into why some people can pursue both simultaneously while others have to go through a specific bulk and cut phase. Weā€™re also delving into the various factors determining whether body recomposition is possible, such as protein intake, total caloric intake, muscular and body fat levels, and training frequency and intensity.

Here are some of the specific tips we dive into:

  • Eat a high enough level of protein to support lean mass gains
  • Be in a slight caloric deficit
  • Avoid jumping into severe caloric deficits
  • Emphasize consistent training and lifestyle factors, such as getting enough sleep
  • Avoid rushing the process
  • Establish goals and reevaluate them after achieving the desired level of leanness
  • Take into account performance and desired changes in appearance when reevaluating goals
