We’ve been talking about your nutrition and metabolic health all week for the sake of building our glutes. Everything we’ve discussed is important when it comes to optimizing your metabolism, but there is one more nutritional topic we must discuss because it’s arguably the most important…⬇️

Extreme deficits. Calorie Counting.

We’ve likely all been fooled by the promises of extreme dieting. We didn’t know better because that’s what we were told to do; however, now that we know better, we do better. 💯

When you take dieting to extremes and go into a deep caloric deficit for too long, your metabolism sees red flags. Not enough food means not enough energy. Your metabolism slows down and conserves energy for its necessary bodily functions, causing you to stop losing weight eventually. Here’s where the real problem comes in, however: You can’t live in a calorie deficit forever, so naturally, you begin eating more again. But guess what? Your metabolism is compromised. You begin eating more (without a strategy), but now, your metabolism can’t keep up (hence the phrase “slow metabolism”). 👌

Fortunately, our nutrition cycles here in this space are strategically created. Our deficits are perfectly crafted to preserve your metabolic health, and when we strategically eat more (as we’re doing this month), it’s to safely kickstart your metabolism (without the risk of gaining fat).
