How to Use Weight Loss Results to Your Advantage

Weight Loss Results: How to Maintain Your Weight Loss

Can you even believe it? Our six-week Summer Shape Up challenge is over, but girlfriend – you are JUST GETTING STARTED. Whether you are trying to maintain your weight loss or keep pushing yourself further, this is how to make it happen this fall.

Finding Your Balance

Maintaining your results doesn’t mean sticking rigidly to the same routine forever. It’s about finding the right balance between sticking to the foundational habits you’ve built during the challenge and being flexible to make adjustments that make sense for your lifestyle.

Schedule Your Workouts

It doesn’t have to be the same time every day, but schedule your MOVE workouts into your week ahead of time to ensure it’s a non-negotiable part of your routine. If you need to change it, that’s ok, but reschedule it now. Don’t wait to “figure it out later.” It’s too easy to let that time slide if it’s unplanned.

Mix It Up…The RIGHT Way

Progress comes from repetition, but that doesn’t mean doing the same workout day after day. The programs in MOVE are designed to give you the best balance of training styles while still providing flexibility. Try out the new videos, take your Weight Loss Results outside, join Katie’s live workouts, or check out a new class with a friend on your cardio days. Keeping it fresh can help you stay inspired and prevent any boredom from creeping in.

Live Guiltless

While it’s outstanding to indulge occasionally, it’s equally crucial to maintain a balanced diet if you want to keep your weight loss progress. The Hot Body Meal Plan is incredible to help lay the foundation for you, and it’s what I always go back to when I want to reset, but the Guiltless Recipe Book will give you so many tools to help you find a healthy everyday balance. There are over 130 recipes and my playbook for living guiltless.

୨ৎ absolute necessities .ᐟ

if you're trying to glow up, get healthier, etc, these are the very basics that you absolutely NEED to follow!

01, WATER .ᐟ

Staying hydrated is crucial for your health and wellbeing. While the recommended daily intake is 8 cups of water, you can gradually increase your consumption over a few weeks if that seems too overwhelming. Drinking enough water provides numerous benefits, from clearing skin and flushing out waste, to boosting exercise performance and supporting weight loss. Despite being the very essence that sustains life, water is often underappreciated.

02, FOOD .ᐟ

I used to skip breakfast, thinking it would help me lose weight. However, studies show that those who eat breakfast tend to lose more weight and keep it off longer. The truth is, food is incredibly important. It's best to regulate your eating habits by consuming at least 3 meals per day, even if they're only small portions. Some food is better than no food. If you want to go on a diet, that's fine! but make sure you research healthy dieting methods. At a minimum, eat one serving of fruits and vegetables daily, and try to increase that to five servings per day if possible. Proper nutrition is key for your overall health.

03, HOBBIES .ᐟ

i have this previous post regarding hobbies you could try! It's so important to find fun activities that you genuinely enjoy and look forward to doing. Hobbies add fun to your life and pose as a nice break from technology and the stress of work and school. They also greatly improve symptoms of depression and anxiety. You could do some physical activity, such as a sport you like, or something more calm and creative, like painting or writing.

04, SLEEP .ᐟ

a lot of people struggle to fall asleep at a decent time. Try getting ready for bed early. Personally, I tend to take off my make up and do my skincare immediately after i come home for school/work so i don't have to worry about it before bed.

Technology is probably your sleeping schedule's worst enemy, as the blue light from the screen keeps your brain awake, so try to pause screen-related activities at least an hour before bed. Also, try not to snack 2 - 4 hours before you go to sleep. This is because lying down makes it harder for your body to digest food, which can result in sleeplessness.

Forcing yourself to go to bed super early isn't helpful either. Like I've mentioned in my other points, take things slow and gradual!

05, SOCIALIZATION .ᐟ

Engaging in simple social interactions, such as conversing with family, seeing friends, or greeting people on the street, is incredibly important. Isolating yourself in your room all day accomplishes nothing.

There was a time when I dreaded spending time with friends, convinced I lacked the energy or mood. However, once I forced myself to make plans, I realized how much I genuinely enjoyed their company. Other people are what make life truly worthwhile. So why not reach out to a friend right now and invite them to hang out tomorrow?

06, ACTIVITY .ᐟ

you don't need an exercise routine if you don't want one, but simple physical activity is still a daily necessity! At least 30 minutes is recommended. Personally, i most enjoy plugging in my headphones and going on a walk around my neighbourhood for an hour or two.

07, SELF TALK .ᐟ

Arguably one of my most important points, quit the self-deprecating talk. You never realize how much it affects you until you quit it. Yes, you can absolutely get that assessment done. Yes, you are a likable and amazing person. Just keep affirming and reminding yourself that you are worthy, and you will attract so many good things. Trust me, it will help you so much in the long run.

Why Has The Vegan Diet Become So Much Popular?

The body receives the most benefit from obtaining its energy from vegetables and products derived from plants. A diet primarily plant-based or vegan may provide various nutritional benefits.

People are becoming more interested in vegan diets in modern times. Foods that vegans consume have diverse and complex flavor profiles. The vegan diet provides you with a wide variety of foods packed with essential nutrients. Here some benefits are enlisted.

Benefits Of A Vegan Diet

Increase Digestion

Increasing dietary fiber intake is one of the many benefits of adopting a vegan diet and eating a lot of whole plant foods. Your digestive system cannot work correctly without the help of fiber.

A more natural and enjoyable bowel motion might encourage you to use it more frequently. At the same time, you'll nourish the good bacteria in your stomach, protecting against inflammation.

Decrease Heart Related Disease

A lower risk of heart disease has been linked to a diet high in fresh produce, beans, and fiber. Best Online Weight Loss Courses that have been carefully planned typically include all these foods in larger quantities than the typical Western diet.

Compared to vegetarians and non-vegetarians, vegans may have a 75% lower risk of developing high blood pressure, according to observational studies. Though more research is needed to confirm the association, preliminary data suggest that vegans may also have a lower risk of death from heart disease.

Prevent From Chronic diseases

High blood pressure, diabetes, gastrointestinal distress, psychological distress, and hormonal imbalances are just some ailments that can be eliminated with a well-balanced vegan diet.

Eating well can not only help you avoid health problems, but it will also make your body run better. Anxiety, panic attacks, and poor sleep are just some mental health problems that can be addressed with a vegan diet.

Vegan Helps To Lose Extra Weight

Being on a healthy vegan diet can help one lose weight quickly. Some research has revealed that vegans have a lower body mass index (BMI) and are naturally slimmer than the general population.

Weight loss on a vegan diet is more significant than on a calorie-restricted diet. The vegan group can achieve more effective weight loss even if they don't stick to their diet. This is because vegan cuisine is naturally free of any harmful chemicals.

Avocado, kale, grapefruit, pineapple, spinach, seeds, almonds, pumpkin, zucchini, broccoli, green peas, and greens may all be incorporated into Best Healthy Cooking Recipes.

Femme Fatale Guide: How To Learn To Love Yourself & Heal From Toxic People

Allow yourself to feel all your emotions and thoughts, authentically and without self-criticism or judgment: Acknowledge that you're grieving. Accept that you need to mourn your loss. Even if it is better to move on in life without these people, it is healthy and completely valid to grieve the relationships you had with these people – regardless of whether they were one-sided, deluded, or otherwise toxic. Allow yourself to cry, be angry, lie in bed, etc. Hit a pillow, sleep in all day on a weekend, or wear a set of pajamas for a WFH day. Give yourself permission to engage in self-soothing behaviors without any type of self-harm or self-sabotage.

Rest, relax, and pamper yourself in your leisure time: Spend time taking it easy – reading, watching TV, doing a face mask or another indulgent skin treatment, using a body massager, cooking dinner in a silk robe and slippers, lighting a candle, cozying up in a blanket, etc. Allow yourself to feel at peace. Create a sanctuary in your space.

Take time for introspection and self-discovery: Being in any type of relationship with toxic people is draining and can cause you to feel as though you've lost a part of yourself by trying to make the relationship succeed. Now, it's time to reclaim yourself after you've courageously cut out these toxic people from your life. Consider and honor your deepest desires, values, interests, hobbies, lifestyle, goals, aesthetic, food, sexual, entertainment preferences, etc. Go on a self-discovery journey to figure out who you really are, what you believe, and who you will work to become as you enter this new, exciting chapter of your life.

Journal, read, eat healthily, work out, drink plenty of water, and sleep: Go back to the basic healthy habits. Try to journal for at least 5-10 minutes a day (using a 5-minute journal, morning pages [writing 3 pages of stream-of-conscious thoughts first thing in the morning], journal or shadow work prompts), make 2-3 whole food, plant-based meals with carbs, veggies, fruits, proteins, and healthy fats, find some ways to incorporate movement into your day – 30-minute walk or yoga session is enough if that's all you can manage consistently, have your body weight in ounces of water daily, and sleep for around 7-8 hours a night. Do some inner child healing by taking care of your core needs.

Indulge in all of your favorites: There's a lot of fun you can have when you have total freedom regarding your daily activities and choices. Give yourself permission to enjoy this solitude. Wear your favorite outfits every day (occasion-appropriate options, of course), including pajamas, loungewear, lingerie, and accessories. Make your favorite meals and snacks throughout the week (incorporating some healthy options in there to feel your best – I love a good oatmeal bowl, frozen grapes, baked Japanese sweet potato, or a hummus and vegetable plate). Watch your favorite TV shows or movies. Indulge in a glass of wine you love or reread a favorite book. Create a masterful playlist. Plan a day of your favorite activities (a long walk, getting a coffee, indulging in a spa day, going to a farmer's market, going to a yoga class, etc.) Treat yourself like your own best friend.

Get comfortable doing things alone: Honestly, no one cares or is paying attention to if you're doing activities alone or with someone else. If someone shows too much interest in your solitude, they're probably projecting their own insecurities regarding their perceived social ridicule. Take yourself shopping, to the nail salon, out for a meal, to the movies, etc. alone. Personally, I love doing most of these things alone anyways. Running errands alone gives you some space to clear your mind and think freely.

Define what an ideal social life and/or relationship looks like for you: Once you've become comfortable with yourself and living life on your own terms, it's time to embrace your desire for human connection and socialization. Consider the types of people you want in your life – their values, personalities, interests, goals, favorite activities, relational boundaries, etc., and where/when/how often you want to interact with them.

Create an action plan: Reconnect with the people in your life who continue to show up for you and have been a light through these toxic relationships and their lasting effects over the months or years. Decide on the places, groups, and ways you'll reach out/try to meet these people. Figure out how to expand your network, and make new connections. Don't be afraid to put yourself out there. You won't vibe with everyone you meet, but it is worthwhile to engage in small talk with several strangers if even one of these new faces, later on, becomes a good friend or acquaintance. A varied social circle is a great way to enrich your life.

Take small steps, then strides: Be gentle on yourself throughout this entire process. It is perfectly okay to take one day at a time during the grieving process. Everyone's healing journey will look different and evolve at a different pace. Don't let these toxic people remain in your heart, mind, and spirit. Remember that you deserve love, kindness, happiness, success, peace, and patience.

𝑚𝑦 𝑤𝑒𝑖𝑔𝚑𝑡 𝑙𝑜𝑠𝑠 𝑔𝑢𝑖𝑑𝑒 ʚɞ ⁺˖

my tips for healthy weightloss ♡

𝑑𝑜𝑛'𝑡 𝑠𝑘𝑖𝑝 𝑚𝑒𝑎𝑙𝑠

♡ eat healthier instead! Meal prep for the week, it saves time and it won't be as tempting to go for something unhealthy when you planned ahead. Make sure your meals are filled with fiber (helps with gut health) and protein (boosts metabolism), they also keep you full.

𝑐𝑎𝑙𝑜𝑟𝑖𝑒 𝑑𝑒𝑓𝑖𝑐𝑖𝑡

♡ when I say this I mean a healthy calorie deficit (not those crazy 200cal diets), on average, cutting 500cals from your normal amount can help you get started on a good, consistent weight loss plan. But honestly just use a free app to help you track your calorie intake. Don't obsess with calorie counting though, you don't have to do strictly those cals, nothing more nothing less, like you can go a little over your limit sometimes I promise it won't be the end of the world.

𝑑𝑟𝑖𝑛𝑘 𝑤𝑎𝑡𝑒𝑟 𝑏𝑒𝑓𝑜𝑟𝑒 𝑚𝑒𝑎𝑙𝑠

♡ drinking one glass of water 30 minutes before a meal to help digestion. but don't drink too soon before or after a meal cause the water will dilute the digestive juices. Also drink water an hour after the meal to allow the body to absorb the nutrients!!

𝑤𝑎𝑙𝑘

♡ studies have shown that having a regular walking program can help you melt away some extra weight. Just 2 1/2 hours of walking a week (about 20 minutes a day) can shrink your belly by about 2.5cm in 4 weeks !! Also walking is fun, just put on your fav playlist, bring water and have a hot girl walk!! Before driving or anything think "Could I walk there?". Walking can also reduce stress, help ward off symptoms of depression and helps you be more positive! If you have strict parents that don't let you walk alone (like myself) go to the gym and get on the tredmill or walk around the house or backyard.

𝑝𝑖𝑙𝑎𝑡𝑒𝑠

♡ pilates is so good and effective, a study in 2017 showed that practicing Pilates for two months not only was effective for weight loss, it also reduced BMI and toned waist, abdomen, and hip areas. If you're like me and can't afford or don't have time to go to classes literally just search "pilates workout" on youtube and you'll get a ton of them!! pair this with a daily hot girl walk and your pretty much set

𝑓𝑖𝑥 𝑦𝑜𝑢𝑟 𝑠𝑙𝑒𝑒𝑝 𝑠𝑐𝚑𝑒𝑑𝑢𝑙𝑒

♡ getting quality sleep is super important for a healthy weight loss plan and also for your mental health in general. Research has shown that losing sleep while dieting can reduce the amount of weight lost and encourage overeating. Try to get around 7–9 hours of sleep per night.

𝑑𝑜𝑛'𝑡 𝑜𝑣𝑒𝑟𝑑𝑜 𝑎𝑛𝑦𝑡𝚑𝑖𝑛𝑔!!

♡ listen, I get it, I've been there done that, you wanna see results quick and are sick of feeling bad, but babe, when you workout and diet to an extreme level, your body can go out of balance. This can literally slow down your weight loss process, so you're doing the reverse of what you wanted, also it's totally exhausting and so not worth it. Please have patience with your body.

𝑚𝑎𝑘𝑒 𝑖𝑡 𝑎 𝚑𝑎𝑏𝑖𝑡 𝑛𝑜𝑡 𝑎 𝑡𝑎𝑠𝑘 !! 𝑔𝑜𝑜𝑑 𝑙𝑢𝑐𝑘 ♡

Proud to say I'm finally starting my weight loss journey!!! (Healthy this time, as I do struggle with eating too little)

I'll be posting my journey on tiktok as well as here!

(My tiktok is @/cricketscravings if you wanna follow!)

I am currently at 244.6 pounds, I'm 18 and my height is 5'3!

I do have PCOS (polycystic ovary syndrome) so I know it's going to be hard, but with things like making videos on tiktok and the Weight Goals I plan on that keeping me motivated!

Here's my meal plan for today

Breakfast - I ate oatmeal with pumpkin spice and cinnamon, I added some artificial sweetener to it. I also had some cinnamon tea!

Lunch- I'm planning on having a salad with thousand island dressing

Dinner - just a protein shake for today as I don't feel like making anything!

I plan on reaching a step goal of 8,000-9,000. I don't want to be too harsh on myself however!

I also plan on doing jumping jacks, push ups, and stretches in the morning, however today I didn't do that because I woke up with a Charlie horse at 2 AM and was in pain when I woke up again at 6:20 today!

Another thing I plan on doing (if I'm not in pain lol) is wake up at 5 AM and going on a 30 minute walk. At school at the end of the day we tend to go outside for about an hour so I'll also walk at school!

If you have any tips please let me know!!!!

It Girls Ramadan Guide

Hey babesss I am soooo excited Ramadan officially starts this week and I wanted to post a Ramadan guide for my fellow Muslim girliesss if you aren’t Muslim but are participating in Ramadan this is a good guide for you as well.

Setting Intentions

♡ Before Ramadan starts set your intentions. What do you want to improve on this Ramadan? What charities do you want to donate to? Even if you aren’t able to reach all the goals you set Allah rewards us based on our genuine intentions.

♡ Journaling. I highly recommend journaling your intentions and your experience this Ramadan. Keep track of your mood, as well as your Quran readings, and prayers. I will link a Quran Journal as well as a 30-Day Ramadan Journal  Ramadan Legacy Planner.

♡ Vision Board. I’ve seen some girls online recommend creating a Ramadan vision board and I agree! Create a vision board using Canva and Pinterest, or you can use a poster board and magazine. This will help you see your goals not just read them. Place your vision board where you can see it so you're reminded of your goals daily.

Nutrition 

Suhoor

♡ Eat a balanced suhoor meal. Eat a meal high in protein, protein takes a while to be broken down so it’ll help you at the beginning of the day. Eat carbs and fats you will need as much energy as the average hours we fast during Ramadan are 12 to 18 hours depending on where you are.

♡ Drink water. One of the things I struggle with every Ramadan is my water intake. Try to drink at least two 16oz bottles of water during Suhoor. Hydration is super important you don't want to pass out due to severe dehydration.

♡ Drink electrolytes. Drinking electrolytes is very beneficial before fasting they help your body retain water while you are fasting. Do not overdo your electrolyte intake because too much sodium is bad.

Iftar

♡ Do not overdo it. I know going a long period without food can make you want to eat everything in sight but it is important to eat a well-balanced nutritious meal after fasting. When you overeat this may cause indigestion and other stomach issues.

♡ Avoid eating too much fried, salty, and high-sugar foods. Moderation is key I know during Ramadan my mom makes all of our favorite Ghanaian dishes and they aren't the most healthy options. That doesn't mean you shouldn't eat them or avoid them you can eat them but in moderation. Eating too much of these foods in the moment may feel good because they cause us to release feel-good hormones like dopamine and serotonin but they can make fasting the next day very difficult.

♡ Eat whole foods. The best food to break your fast with is fruit! Specifically, a date to begin with and then other fruits like pineapple, watermelon, oranges, strawberries, mango, and other fruits you like. I would recommend you eat more water-based fruits to hydrate your body.

♡ Drink water. I mention this twice because it is very important that after you break your fast you drink water make it a goal of yours to have six to eight glasses of water daily.

Movement

♡ Create a Ramadan workout plan. I know a lot of us girliesss are on weight loss journeys and we want to be snatched before the summer but we also don't want to stress out our bodies while fasting and exerting needed energy. Create a workout plan that starts low and goes slow. Limit intense cardio, and train at a lower intensity, if you lift try to lift heavy before suhoor which means you’ll need to wake up earlier. If you prefer to workout after Iftar break your fast with something light so that your stomach won’t feel so heavy when you workout.

♡ Walking. I recommend getting in sedentary movement throughout the day, so instead of taking the bus walk if where you're going isn't that far. Walking is beneficial for so many reasons I’ll link this article.

♡ Yoga and Pilates. I love both of these exercises they are perfect for my girlies who are fasting. Pilates especially is perfect it is very low and slow in movements but still gives you amazing results. Yoga is perfect for relaxing especially if you deal with anxiety, sore muscles, back problems, and trouble sleeping I recommend trying yoga.

Increase Your Iman

♡ Prioritize Prayer. Make sure to pray all five of your daily prayers and do them on time try your best to not delay your prayers unless you have to.

♡ Read Quran. Some of you might be hafiz of the Quran and I know it is common for hafiz to try and finish the Quran from start to finish during Ramadan so maybe you can make that a goal if you are a hafiz. For my girlies who are like me and haven’t finished the Quran but Insha Allah we will! I recommend trying to read at least 10 verses of the Quran daily that's better than not reading it at all.

♡ Watch Islamic Lectures. I recommend spending your time online watching Islamic lectures like Omar Suleiman, Mohammed Hoblos, Mufti Menk, Dr. Sh. Haifa Younis, Akhi Ayman (he is perfect for younger men), and many other amazing lecturers. My favorites are Omar Suleiman and Mufti Menk they explain Islam in such a beautiful way and spread the message perfectly.

♡ Charity. This month is the best month to give to those in need. You can donate to many organizations, and help send aid to Gaza/Congo/Sudan, create a fundraiser for your local masjid in need, feed another fasting person, help prepare Iftar at home, and so much more. Charity not only blesses us with good deeds but there have been studies proving random acts of kindness are good for our mental health we produce dopamine when we donate or help others. 

♡ Pray Tahajjud. I swearrrr if you have anything you desire in this life this is the best prayer you need to pray! Allah is closest to the earth during the last third of the night and he is there to listen to our dua’s and repentance. You can only pray Tahajjuud after you sleep. Tahajjud is hard to catch because it involves having to leave our sleep for the sake of Allah. One Mallam explained Tahajjud so beautifully he said “Tahajjud is like a personal invitation from Allah Not everyone can get in most people are asleep during that time.” If you have anything you want badly pray Tahajjud for it, especially during this holy month.  So try your best to wake up an hour or two before the fajr prayer and pray Tahajjuud I will link a video on the benefits and how to pray Tahajjud for those who don’t know how.

These are a few tips for my girliesss I hope Ramadan is a blessed month for all of us! Thank you for all the support babes! we are getting close to 500 followers!!!

💙🩵🦋✨My Skinny Plan and How I Lost 30+ Pounds✨🦋💙🩵

🔴❗️❌TW: ED, ANA❌❗️🔴

My plan:

Calorie Limits: Daily calorie limit is roughly 800, but absolutely no more than 1000. This is high restriction. There should also be one day a week or every 2 weeks where you eat a maintenance/metabolism diet. This calorie limit will be what is required to maintain your current weight. This will allow your body time to recover from the restriction and your metabolism will not stall.

Exercise: We know that the key to weight loss is expending more calories than you intake. With any type of restriction, you will be doing this without exercise. This is why exercise is not as important as your diet. I only do light exercise, like walking or light weight lifting.

Stay Consistent: Do not get discouraged. It will take time, but it will happen. Just keep it up. Take your time and do it well. No cheating.

Vitamins: Daily vitamins are essential. You are not eating enough, so you need to make up for it. Protein is ESSENTIAL. It takes more energy/calories to digest than it costs in calories. You will burn calories eating protein! Shakes are easy and tasty! Make a matcha latte out of a vanilla one!

Fast Food: You can have it, but you have to be smart about it. A kids meal at Chipotle is an easy 300 calorie meal and it is full of protein. It is enough for the whole day. Grilled nuggets at Chick-fil-A are so easy and tasty! About 200 calories for 8. You can eat out, but you must make a plan for it and stick to it.

Drinks: There is no reason to drink your calories if you can avoid it. Why drink a Coke when you can have a Diet Coke? Why have Gatorade when you can have Gatorade zero? What’s the point? Protein drinks are fine, as they are extremely filling and good for you. Full sugar soda is a no! They make diet and low sugar everything, just drink that!

Keeping Track: Keep track of your weight. After sleeping and going to the bathroom is the best time to do it. You will be at your base weight. Record it every day, even if you have gained. It is vital to see your progress or get you back on track. There are tons of great apps for it. You can track your weight in pounds, kilograms, BMI, etc. Always record your food. It’s not hard. You can even plan your meals ahead of time in your app. It’s so simple!

I am currently in a week long plateau. It feels as though I haven’t lost weight in years and I am beginning to feel discouraged. I know it will happen, I’m just worried. I will stay consistent and I will achieve my dreams. I am not underweight, but I will be.

🪩🕷️🚬🖤I will be SKINNY🖤🚬🕷️🪩

Can I build muscle and lose fat at the same time?

Yes, it is possible to build muscle and lose fat simultaneously, though it can be challenging and typically requires a well-structured approach. This process is often referred to as “recomping” (short for recomposition). Here are some key strategies to achieve this:

1. Nutrition

Caloric Balance: Aim for a slight caloric deficit to lose fat while providing enough nutrients to support muscle growth. This typically means consuming slightly fewer calories than your body needs to maintain its current weight.

Protein Intake: Ensure a high protein intake (1.6 to 2.2 grams per kilogram of body weight) to support muscle repair and growth.

Macronutrient Balance: Balance your diet with a good mix of carbohydrates and fats to provide energy and support overall health.

2. Strength Training

Progressive Overload: Continuously challenge your muscles by increasing the weight, reps, or intensity of your workouts over time.

Compound Movements: Focus on compound exercises (squats, deadlifts, bench presses) that work multiple muscle groups simultaneously.

Consistency: Maintain a regular workout schedule, typically 3–5 times per week, to consistently stimulate muscle growth.

3. Cardio

Moderation: Incorporate moderate cardio to support fat loss without compromising muscle gains. High-Intensity Interval Training (HIIT) can be particularly effective.

Timing: Consider doing cardio on non-lifting days or after strength training sessions to prioritize muscle preservation.

4. Recovery

Sleep: Ensure adequate sleep (7–9 hours per night) to allow your body to recover and grow.

Rest Days: Incorporate rest days to prevent overtraining and reduce the risk of injury.

5. Consistency and Patience

Long-Term Commitment: Body recomposition is a gradual process that requires consistent effort over time. Patience and persistence are crucial.

Monitor Progress: Track your progress with measurements, photos, and performance in the gym rather than just focusing on the scale.

6. Individual Factors

Starting Point: Beginners or individuals returning after a long break often see more dramatic changes in body composition.

Genetics: Genetic factors can influence how easily you gain muscle or lose fat.

7. Nutrient Timing

Pre-Workout Nutrition: Consume a meal or snack rich in protein and carbohydrates about 1–2 hours before your workout to fuel performance.

Post-Workout Nutrition: Have a post-workout meal or shake with protein and carbs within 30–60 minutes after your workout to aid recovery and muscle growth.

8. Hydration

Stay Hydrated: Adequate hydration is essential for overall health, performance, and recovery. Aim to drink plenty of water throughout the day, particularly before, during, and after workouts.

9. Supplementation

Protein Supplements: Whey or plant-based protein powders can help you meet your daily protein requirements.

Creatine: Creatine monohydrate is a well-researched supplement that can enhance strength, power, and muscle mass.

Branched-Chain Amino Acids (BCAAs): These can help reduce muscle soreness and promote muscle protein synthesis, particularly when training in a fasted state.

10. Mind-Muscle Connection

Focus on Form: Pay attention to proper form and technique to maximize muscle engagement and prevent injury.

Contraction: Emphasize the contraction of the target muscles during each exercise to improve muscle activation.

11. Variation in Training

Periodization: Incorporate different phases in your training program, such as strength, hypertrophy, and endurance phases, to continually challenge your muscles and prevent plateaus.

Exercise Variety: Regularly change your exercises, rep ranges, and workout routines to keep your muscles guessing and promote continuous adaptation.

12. Tracking and Adjustment

Regular Assessments: Keep track of your body composition, strength levels, and overall progress. Adjust your diet and training plan based on these assessments to ensure continued progress.

Listen to Your Body: Be mindful of signs of overtraining or injury. Adjust your training intensity and volume as needed to prevent burnout and maintain long-term progress.

13. Metabolic Rate and Muscle Mass

Muscle Increases Metabolism: Building muscle increases your resting metabolic rate (RMR), helping you burn more calories even at rest, which aids in fat loss.

14. Hormonal Balance

Manage Stress: High-stress levels can lead to elevated cortisol, which can negatively impact muscle growth and fat loss. Incorporate stress management techniques such as meditation, yoga, or deep breathing exercises.

Hormonal Health: Ensure adequate intake of essential fats and micronutrients to support hormonal health, which is crucial for muscle growth and fat loss.

15. Support System

Accountability: Having a workout partner, or coach, or joining a fitness community can provide motivation, accountability, and support.

Education: Continuously educate yourself about nutrition, training, and recovery to make informed decisions and optimize your body recomposition efforts.

By paying attention to these important factors, you can further enhance your ability to build muscle and lose fat simultaneously. Remember, consistency, patience, and a holistic approach are key to achieving long-term success in body recomposition.

100 ways to loss weight ?!

As the holiday season approaches, it's easy to succumb to the temptation of indulgence. However, with a bit of planning and intention, you can still enjoy the festivities without sabotaging your weight loss goals. Here are 100 approved ways to lose weight without harming your body, even during the holiday season.

Prioritize protein: Protein helps you feel full and satisfied, so make sure to include it in every meal and snack. Choose lean protein sources like fish, chicken, beans, and lentils.

Load up on fiber: Fiber helps you feel full and aids in digestion, so include plenty of fruits, vegetables, and whole grains in your diet.

Control portions: Even healthy foods can sabotage your weight loss efforts if you eat too much. Practice mindful eating and pay attention to your hunger cues.

Stay hydrated: Drinking plenty of water helps you feel full and flushes out toxins. Aim for eight glasses per day.

Get enough sleep: When you're sleep-deprived, your body produces more of the stress hormone cortisol, which can lead to increased appetite and weight gain. Aim for 7-8 hours of sleep per night.

Move your body: Exercise helps you burn calories and build muscle, which can boost your metabolism and help you lose weight. Aim for at least 30 minutes of moderate-intensity exercise most days of the week.

Mind your alcohol intake: Alcohol is high in calories and can hinder weight loss efforts. If you choose to drink, do so in moderation.

Make healthy swaps: When indulging in holiday treats, make smart swaps like opting for dark chocolate over milk chocolate or choosing fresh fruit over sugary desserts.

It's time to ditch the fad diets and get real about weight loss. This comprehensive guide provides you with 100 proven strategies to lose weight safely and effectively, without harming your body.

Week 1

Here's a recap of the first week of the 50-day productivity challenge

1. Exercise

The first few days were extremely hot, so I focused on lighter activities like yoga and walking. This week, I plan to add 10 minutes of daily jump rope and go on longer mountain hikes.

2. Reading

I wasn’t very consistent with my reading, so I’ll commit to 30 minutes of daily reading from now on. However, I did finish a book I had previously started called Shinrin Yoku, which discusses forest therapy. It was nice, but I felt it could have had more scientific support.

3. Diet and Weight Loss (Trigger Warning)

I definitely need to improve in this area. My weight remained stable at 55kg (167cm), which isn’t bad since I have a good amount of muscle mass, but I aim to tone it more. The quality of my food has been excellent, but I want to focus on having preferred meal times and eating more mindfully.

4. Academic Goals

I averaged 2 hours of study per day. With my upcoming exam, I need to increase this to 5, maybe even 6 hours a day.

5. Personal Growth

I’m improving my assertiveness and patience, which in turn is boosting my happiness. I still need to work on this and aim to be more flexible overall.
