Stop trying to lose fat and gain muscle at the same time!!!


I meet so many trainees that make this mistake. Once you are no longer a beginner, YOU CANNOT BUILD MUSCLE AND LOSE FAT AT THE SAME TIME.

You can lose fat and maintain muscle.

Or you can gain muscle, and probably gain a bit of fat too.

Once you have exhausted your beginners gains, you cannot do both at the same time.

Is this a familiar scenario…?

You’re a bit overweight and unfit. You start doing some rando, generic exercise programme like Beachbody and start eating vaguely more healthily.

You get some results, you lose a bit of weight and your arms look a bit more defined.

You’re super happy and you think “just X more months of this and I’ll get to X”

But then you get STUCK. You stop getting the results that you got initially.

You can’t understand why, you’re doing the EXACT SAME THING.

Welcome to the wonderful world of Beginnerz Gainz Fallacy.

I’m going to tell you a dirty little secret: the diet and exercise programme you need to get rid of the first few pounds is DIFFERENT to the one you’ll need later down the track.

If this describes you, you’ll need to tighten things up in order to continue losing weight.

Once you’ve exhausted the beginners gains, you simply aren’t going to stumble into a calorie deficit, necessary to lose fat, without knowing how much you actually need to eat.

And you aren’t going to accidentally provide your muscles with sufficient training stimulus in order to create muscle growth.

And no, those ‘HIIT’ workouts are NOT doing that.

You also probably aren’t balancing rest and recovery properly.

Dont feel bad, this shit is HARD. People like me study a LOT to find out how to do it

And there is a LOT of crap on the internet leading you astray.

At some point or another you are going to need to focus on either muscle GAIN or maintenance for periods of time. You can’t just smash away in a deficit endlessly.

This process never stops, and there often comes a point when the effort needed to continue outweighs the benefits.

Most of you will have outgrown programmes like Beachbody, (well done! You’re now ready for something more advanced and serious!!) and you’ll need something more specific to continue getting results that you want: increased strength, muscle growth OR fatloss

You’ll need to follow a training plan and/or really get specific with your calories (usually both). It won’t just happen by accident or with a mediocre training programme anymore

Happily, I’ll be talking about this more and offer coaching to do just that!
