METABOLIC PRIMING

MONTH THREE

MONTHLY FOCUS:

 

“Success doesn't come from what you do occasionally. It comes from what you do consistently.”

-Marie Forleo 

With your goals in mind, you should now have established your first macronutrient targets and lifestyle actions items with your coach. Whether you are cutting, building or reverse dieting you are on your way to achieving your goal.

It is important to remember that CHANGE IS NOT LINEAR. Your body is not predictable because life and the factors that affect change are not predictable. There will be ups and downs and plateaus along the way. This is completely normal! Our first focus this month will be to set realistic expectations for rates of change and get a deeper understanding of metabolic adaptation and how that can impact progress. 

You will not be changing your macronutrient targets as often as you might think. If you are seeing your results over time, trending downward or upward (depending on your goal) then we will keep your plan as is. By the time changes need to be made in order to see further progress, we will have gone over the steps to take together!

Until then, your job is to:

  • Stay consistent with your plan at a level that feels sustainable.

  • Establish individual progress indicators that match goals.

  • Continue to track macronutrients and progress indicators. 

Through additional video and audio resources throughout the month will also learn the secret to maximizing your efforts and learn tips and tricks to hit your macronutrient targets like a pro. 

You are not alone in this process. I am with you every step of the way! If you met with me for your Nutrient Analysis, we established individual check-in schedules. It is your responsibility to check in to get the help that you need. I recommend putting a weekly reminder on your calendar. 

Use the “Ask Amy” feature on the Member Hub homepage at any time you have questions or need additional support. Be sure to mark your calendar for our monthly group sessions and open office hours! 

METABOLIC ADAPTATION:

After establishing your macronutrient targets and creating your first action items in your one-on-one Nutrient Analysis Session this video will help you to set realistic expectations for rates of change and give you a deeper understanding of metabolic adaptation and how it can impact progress.

MAXIMIZE YOUR EFFORTS:

Listen in to learn the SECRET to maximizing your efforts in reaching your body composition goals. It is probably NOT what you would think!

 

YOUR ACTION ITEMS:

Body composition rates of change are unique to each individual. Give yourself grace in this process and recognize that your body may respond differently than what is expected. The secret to finding your desired outcome is taking action every day and being consistent. Everything you need to reach your goals, will be provided for you. If you need additional support, be sure to use the “Ask Amy” feature.

To maximize your results, complete the following:

  • Establish and monitor your progress indicators (video)

  • Maintain consistency with your established plan (audio)

  • Check in with your coach regularly
