I am on you like a stamp on an envelope, stink on doo doo........
Some of this I have written may be redundant......I dont care.....READ IT ANYWAY.........>
Again, this is a post I had written some time back....(but "HIGHLY" modified for you and added some new information).
Diet is the "essential element" within a fitness plan:
The diet can prevent muscle growth, cause muscle growth, prevent fat loss, cause fat loss , and effect a person biologically and psychologically.
It is the catalyst within a fitness plan that makes everything else that one should "also attempt to make optimal" work.
Education and appropriate personal application and review of this education can bring wisdom.
The POWER of CHOICE (within diet and fitness) is both a curse and a blessing.
Proper manipulation of choice, and you will maintain your course. Improper manipulation of choice will compel you to low levels of personal despair.
You appropriately handle "choice" within your life (when concerning diet and fitness), and you will become nearly unstoppable as you work down your goal path.
When you open up perception with things you read, learn about the biological and psychological feed back one obtains when dieting and fitness training, and separate the brain from the body--as the empowering tower, and learn how to "properly" master your "unique" self, the odds of the fire within your spirit burning out goes down tremendously.
1. A diet vs. fitness plan optimized for tissue loss.
A. Determine your MT Line.
B. Create a small deficit
C. Create calorie TARGETS each day
D. Track your calorie intake each day
E. Learn how to manipulate the calorie versus fitness activities.
F. Create an exercise program that is a FBW or an upper/lower split (when work and other life issues require such a split). Or flat develop "something" within the confines of what you have available to use (even marginally less equipment can get the job completed)
G. Create Diet and Fitness Training journals
Some say dont track calories, some say do. Some that dont track calories are in the position of knowledge that they dont have to. Some are in the same position of knowledge want to eliminate the element of memory failure and track calories.
What ever you decide to do there is NO DOUBT what this information can do for you when its on paper--precisely--what you had been taking in calorie wise. It is a foundation base that CAN prevent heartache and weight loss plateaus......its underestimated IMO, because alot do not USE IT to their personal GOAL ADVANTAGE--properly, and this is TOO BAD.
I still track and count my calories to this very day.
Within this journal you would have information without a price tag. IMO.
I am going to assume you don’t have a diet journal. (A personal one you transfer to here)
Additionally, I am going to assume you don’t have a weight training journal.(one that you transfer to this journal)
If you have one but not the other, shame on you.
If you don’t have either, shame on you again.
Problems can be solved with:
1. Continued education and appropriate application of this knowledge
2. Data from: The Diet journal
Calorie history IMO is A PRICELESS TEACHER of the present...
3. Data from: The Fitness training journal
4. Periodic reviews and adjustments.
Watch, look, and listen, to your body:
Use the data from the diet and fitness journals along with appropriate application of knowledge learned to have the tools available to "work with" to allow you to have a foundation to "work from" to make improvements, "when" complications come up during diet and fitness training.
THIS IS SMART.
If one is keeping a training journal, this essential journal can tell you many things:
Your progress from one work out to the next (on individual exercises), and whether your progress is occurring good, or slowing down.
In addition, if one is keeping a diet journal per day along with the training journal, one can look in the diet journal per day and compare results in the training journal and in effect determine if its something in the diet or training and/or both is slowing progress.
Some persons have enough knowledge of calories within the types of foods they eat (etc) Vs. what is generally expended during exercise, that they dont need to track calories in order to lose good tissue weight. And some with this knowlesge still track their calories.
Are YOU in this position--RIGHT NOW? If not, what are you going to do during the time you obtain this knowledge?
If one ISNT in this type of situation, there are some decisions one has to make on what they will accept and what they will not accept on the road to their goal (s).
Some of the decisions made you will not like, but have to make, and others will not be so difficult.
However, you have to come to a common ground that will lead you during your goal path.
For example, in losing good tissue weight. The DIET is number one, the KING OF KINGS, and one MUST obtain knowledge on the requirements within the diet specrum if they want to lose good tissue weight.
Therefore, if one IS NOT knowledgeable at the beginning, it would make sense to obtain quick knowledge of the all important diet---and track calories---until you get to the point--where it ISNT necessary within your life style in order to continue to lose good tissue weight.
Can tracking calories and what you may eat be tedious and irritating? To some yes.
To others no.
In either case, if this is something that is "required" of you at the time, then one sucks it up, and does it to get the job done.
Tracking calories can be a "powerful tool" and can be used as a "manipulator" when adjoinging fitness training along its side.
Once you learn what you need (your personal MT LINE) and approximate calories burned during some exercises, and you track your calories at the same time, this knowledge base ALONE--when manipulated--Is so POWERFUL, it difficult to describe in words alone. I dont have enough room with the text limit to name the benefits. But I will give you an example:
A person was on a deficit diet. There MT line is 2800c (this includes all activities like work and the fitness training). However, today they are having a serious hunger attack (which comes with deficit dieting and from previous days deficit dieting). Today, this person is going to eat at their MT LINE (or consume 2800c) instead of deficiting at 2300c (or -500c deficit). This persons ADDS a 30 minute session of cardio, and likewise draws a deficit and stays on a good tissue loss track. This person was able to eat more to stave off hunger and obtain some self fulfillment while manipulating their knowledge of the laws of energy balance. THUS THE POWER!
Alot of persons have difficlulty in dealing with the energy equation (and I am not down playing a persons difficulty); however, cry in your pillow, jump and down mad, bang your head on the table, pull all of your hair out.....when one is done---nothing has changed the law of energy balance is still there starring you in the face--smiling awaiting for you to embrace and deal with it--correctly.
UH, uh! And you thought I was done today........
ONE MORE THING:
No Fat Burning Program is Correct without the Deficit Diet Affect
(Chillen)
The Deficit Diet will Subject the Fat Loss Zone to much Respect. (reference cardio)
(Chillen)
My point? No fat reduction program is optimum......without the Mighty calorie understood.
You got sick......and tired.........from Saturday...........night.........hope you enjoyed it..............
Now it blended into...........your goal.......and made you miss a workout (at least this time-------SHAME ON YOU!)
I respect your honesty, BT....
(Edit: Kraken I hope you have read these posts)
