When it comes to losing weight, and especially if you calorie and macro count
There is confusion as to whether you should;
Just Count Calorie
Count Protein
Watch Your Carbs
Lower Your Fats
Or, All The Above
Should Your Just Count Calories To Lose Weight?
At Gym Reb3l, we don't believe in teaching our clients to count calories and ill give you the reason later
But for those of you who do choose to count calorie, having an understand of what you should do and why is essential
So should you just count calories to lose weight?
The simple answer is, Yes You Can
By staying in a calorie deficit then you will lose weight
However... just because you are losing weight it does not mean that you will be happy with your body shape
If you just count calories and do not look at your protein intake then you could be reducing your chances of recovery, muscle development and body shape changes for the better
Why Protein Is The Most Important Macro?
Alongside your daily calories, you should also be looking at your protein intake
By keeping your protein intake to the level required you will help to improve your recovery, stay fuller between meals and ensure you are hitting the most important macro
There are various calculations on how much protein to take in and this varies from person to person, usually between 25-40% of their daily intake
This is also goal specific too
What About Carbohydrates and Fats For Weight Loss?
Carbs and fats have a huge impact on your body shape
If you were consuming 1800 calories a day
And 40% of those were Carbohydrates and 20% of those were from Fats
Then you would have a different body shape to someone who consumed the same amount of calories but had 20% Carbohydrate intake and 40% fat intake
Not only is this dependant on you personally and your preference
It also is dependant on your body type and how you respond to certain food groups
Why Your Personal Trainer Should Coach You Specifically On Your Diet
Most personal trainers today will just give you a total amount of calories to hit and if you are lucky, proteins too
This is a very generic way and it is marketed by the method of 'Eat What You Want And Lose Weight'
But your macros (Carbs, Proteins and Fats) should be specific to;
You
Your Goals
Your Body Shape
Your Beliefs
It cannot be generic and this is why we do not calorie count at Gym Reb3l
It puts the focus on calories and not on the most important aspect, YOU!
By working with you 1-2-1 on your food we can ensure you first hit the right amount of each macro so it is specific to you and your goals
We do not ask you to calorie count because that adds stress
Instead we just give you weekly goals on types of food to consume and build this up using our 'Habit Based Nutritional Coaching' programs
This is why so many people at Gym Reb3l keep their results and why our results are so good
