"I want to give you a little insight into what I see from a typical male fat loss client. I used 200 pounds because it's very typical." - post by @chadhargrove1 - I also think this concept applies to women, but with a few subtle differences. I plan to make one about this soon. - A typical male client comes to me at 200ish pounds and tells me they want to lose 25 pounds, or they want to weigh 175. - But, in almost every case, this typical client is *actually* telling me they want to *look* a certain way. - Lean, toned, and muscular. Not necessarily ripped, but some ab definition for sure and maybe even a pretty visible 6 pack. Look athletic and fit. - If that's you, you might be somewhere around 200 and you think after cutting 25 pounds you'd be there. - In some cases, like someone who worked out hard before and built a lot of muscle, this could be the case. - In most cases, and I've helped several guys like these before (and have several right now), what they have to do is lose 40-50 pounds -- and then add 15-25 pounds of muscle. - What happens most the time? You get down to 180, you start to feel small, and then you quit or reason you need to start adding muscle. - In this case, drop the fat first and then build muscle without fat regain. It'll go better that way. - You will drop 2-3 shirt sizes, you will have to go shopping multiple times, you will probably NOT be "big guy" anymore. It'll be worth it though. - You probably need more muscle to achieve your vision. Good thing is, it's the fun part. - Questions or comments? This one's huge, in my opinion. . #bodytransformations #bodytransformation #bodytransformation #bodytransformationcoach #transformationjourney #beforeandafters #progresspics #ifitfitsyourmacros #flexibledieter #weightlosscoach #fatlosscoach #fatlossjourney #weightlossstory #fatlosshelp #fatlosstips #weightlosstips #weightlosshelp #torontofitness #torontopersonaltrainer #torontopersonaltrainers #torontotrainers #yorkville #yongeandcollege #midtowntoronto #fitfam #transformyourbody #progresspicture #igfit #instafitness #chadhargrove

#Repost @chadhargrove1 ・・・ Does it matter if the calories are the same? - Look, there’s two answers. - You’ll have smart coaches on the one side saying calorie is just a calorie. - They aren’t wrong. - You’ll have others saying the type of calories makes a big difference. - They aren’t wrong either. - So what’s my take? And what does it mean for you? - My take is context matters. - A lot. - What do I mean? - If you eat X calories a day of treats or X calories a day of really nutritious foods, the same thing will happen. - But here’s the issue: - Does this happen one day a week? Does it happen to this extreme? - Regularly? - Truthfully, if you’re eating empty calories all day, your ability to control your calories is gonna drop off and eventually it just won’t work. - You’ll get cravings, sleep poorly and feel low on energy. - And when you get that way, you’ll inevitably eat more. - But if it happens once or twice? Or you fit a chocolate bar or drinks into your calorie numbers here and there? - DO THAT. BE A NORMAL PERSON. - It’ll keep you insane because you probably can’t eat vegetables and fruits and lean proteins 100% of the time if you want to be normal and social. - Controlling portions wins. Counting empty calories into your calorie goals works. - It just can’t work as a dominant 24/7 strategy. - You’re gonna have to eat like an adult to lose fat and add lean muscle while feeling good. - You just don’t have to be one of those people that acts like any treat demolishes progress. It isn’t like that. . . . #calories #caloriedeficit #caloriehelp #caloriecounting #dieting #weightloss #gymprogress #workoutprogress #fatlossprogress #weightlossprogress #fatlosshelp #fatlosstips #fitnessfun #fitnessjourney #nutritioncoach #onlinepersonaltrainer #ifitfitsyourmacros #macrocounting #chadhargrove https://ift.tt/2I3SEGI

@chadhargrove1 ・・・ Ah, the Bulgarian Split Squat... Dare I say it, but it could be the best leg exercise out there. By all means, disagree, but it's a tough one to top. Edit: SHIT I SPELT PARALLEL WRONG. Big time glutes and quads, single leg hip stability, and hip mobility due to the seperation the hips through, differentiating it from the typical squat. Amazing for anyone that walks or runs. Athletes or regular people. It'll rev up your metabolism too. Just remember to control on the way down and if it's too hard -- and it may well be -- start off learning to split squat first. Prepare for the burn and give it a shot. Sets as low as 5 and high as however crazy you are. Enjoy. . . . . #torontopersonaltrainer #the6ix #yyz #strengthcoach #functionalfitness #singlelegexercises #torontopersonaltrainer #movementismedicine #gymlife #fitforlife #weightlosscoach #fatlosscoach #exercisetechnique #exercisehelp #fitnesstips #fitnesshelp #legday #glutetraining #glutetrainingtips #glutexercises #bootygains #yongeandcollege #yongeandstclair #fatlosstips #fitfam #fatlosshelp #onlinepersonaltrainer #splitsquat #bulgariansplitsquattechnique #bulgariansplitsquat #chadhargrove (at LVAC)

#Repost @chadhargrove1 ・・・ You wanna one thing everyone who’s ever burned fat and got lean and defined realized about exercises? - The ones you use the most muscles at the same time, with multiple joints working together, give you the best results. - And it’s not even close. - So you’ve got a workout program full of tricep kick backs, knee extensions, mini band exercises, and crunches? - It’s not gonna work — at least not nearly as it should. - You can get workouts in, work hard, and spend all that time and you may not see any real change. - Good news, I’ve got the answer for you. - You’ve heard of them. You may even already do them. - Squats, deadlifts, lunges, rows, pulldowns, presses, push ups, and variations of these. - Simple enough right? Even though they’re more technical, you know these moves. And that’s great. - Just do this one other thing and you’ll be set to make progress you’ve never seen before. - Make sure 80-100% of your workouts are doing these lifts. If this is new for you, I’m so excited for you to switch over and see the faster progress. - There’s no magical rep ranges but 3 or 4 sets for 8-12 reps stands the test of time. If you like heavier weights you can go below 8 more. If you like lighter you can go above 20. - The main thing is you gotta be working hard and adding weight to these main lifts. - Be patient and watch as the inches come off. - Drop me a line below and I’ll get back to you ASAP. . . #fatlosscoach #fatlossworkout #fatlosshelp #weightlosshelp #weightlosstips #weightloss #gymprogress #fitnessfun #womensfitness #burnthefat #bellyfat #fatburning #fatburningmachine #fitnessfanatic #girlswholiftheavy #chadhargrove https://ift.tt/2HXW15V
