Nutrition Success Story
Lynn works with me for personal training and nutrition and has a huge nutrition success story!
Lynn has been working with me to get stronger and leaner since January, 2017.
Since that time, he has made great progress getting stronger and fitter. He quickly progressed from knee push ups to floor push ups to weighted push ups. His resting heart rate has decreased. But Lynn’s weight was not changing very much.
Adding Nutrition Coaching
I knew he could still make great strength progress while leaning out, so I urged Lynn to work with me on his nutrition too so he could continue to make some more progress in his workouts and progress in the health arena as well.
After a little reluctance, Lynn agreed and we got to work.
We started with gradual changes like setting his calories to the correct level for his activity, age and body fat, stressing appropriate pre-workout and post workout eating habits, and cutting out sugar sweetened soda.
In just a few weeks, he has dropped over 10 lb!
This fat loss phase will last several more weeks, or until he is satisfied with his level of leanness.
His nutritional compliance is nearly 100 percent and his stellar results reflect that!
Lynn is an excellent example of a client who has made huge progress by implementing basic, simple changes to his nutrition and lifestyle.
Final Thoughts
Too many people think they need to start using fad diets, fasting, cutting out entire food groups or taking diet pills to lose weight. The multi-billion dollar diet industry sells a lot of fads and people begin to think they need these crazy plans to make progress.
In reality, weight loss and changes in body composition just come from better adherence to basic principles–like achieving a moderate calorie deficit and eating quality meals 3 or 4 times per day.
Lynn has made these basic changes successfully with a little accountability and support and has seen huge improvements to his body composition because of them!
