Weight Loss: Simplified.

Let’s be honest. MOST people drastically overthink weight loss.

“Is it okay to eat before bed?”
“Which superfood will make me burn fat?” 
“Should I eat 6 small meals per day, or maybe one big meal each day?”
“Which supplements do I need to take?”
“Is fasting the answer to my prayers? What about fasted cardio?” 

Yawn.

Here’s the reality: None of those questions will get you significantly closer to your goals. They all have marginal impact, if they have any impact at all.

So instead of getting lost in the minutia.. I want you to simplify your process.

I’ve helped over 100 clients accomplish their weight loss goals over the past half decade. The most successful clients had three things in common. 

KPI #1: Caloric Intake

If you eat too many calories, then you will not lose weight. 

I don’t care how many superfoods you eat.
I don’t care how much fast cardio you perform. 
I don’t care how many supplements you take in the morning.

If you don’t know how many calories you’re currently consuming per day, then this should be your first area of focus.

Every successful client had control of their daily caloric intake.

KPI #2: Daily Steps

Listen. I’m not saying that your metabolism hasn’t changed at all since your early 20s. 

But I am saying that most people ignore a much bigger factor, and that is our daily activity levels as we get older.

Let’s paint a picture: 

  • Life as a Kid: You had recess everyday! You had P.E. class! You played outside!

  • Life as a Teen: You played a sport! Or you were on the dance team! 

  • Life as a College Kid: You walked to campus! You walked across campus! 

  • Life as an Adult: You work-from-home, with all food & drinks available in the kitchen.

Every successful client found ways to incorporate more activity into their everyday life, and the easiest way to manage this is by incorporating a daily steps goal.

KPI #3: Workouts per Week

We accomplish three things when we visit the gym: 

  • We increase our muscle mass, which improves our metabolism and allows our body to naturally burn more calories on a daily basis.

  • We burn calories during the workout itself.

  • We subconsciously give ourselves more motivation to eat healthier, drink more water, etc.

Every successful client incorporated 3 days of strength training per week, or more. 

So….

If you want to simplify your process down to THREE factors which will pretty much guarantee your results… 

Then focus on your caloric intake, your daily steps, and your number of workouts per week.

And if you need any help creating a plan to attack those three, then schedule a Zoom call
