Good morning, and happy Saturday, friends! We’ve been discussing why it might be a good idea to give your metabolism a little love this time of year. The truth is that you must do this if you want to continue progressing. You don’t have to do it right now, necessarily, but you must take dieting breaks sometimes so that your metabolism, hormones, and everything else continue to work in your favor. 👌

If you’ve chosen to focus on maintenance or a build during this season, here are a handful of things you can do to get the most metabolic bang for your buck ⬇️

🔥 Eat more whole foods, especially protein. Protein has the highest TEF (thermic effect of food) and takes the most energy to digest. This means you burn more calories just by eating more protein!

🔥 Strength training for muscle and doing a small amount of HIIT.

🔥 Move your body throughout the day. The more you move your body through everyday tasks, the better your metabolism works for you.

🔥 Focus on the quality and quantity of your sleep.

🔥 Say “No” to drastic dieting. Forever.

Remember, it’s important to consume mostly whole food nutrition and keep your activity level up—and lift heavy since you’re providing your body with more food (more energy!). 💥
