I mean, this is why I wanted to talk about the tie trading first in this because I really think that point one and point two are this will make or break you. If you don't have your dose right, you're going to be nauseous. You're not going to like it. It's going to be too much. If you don't have your dose right, eating enough protein for the average client not on Geopon has always been hard for us.

We've been talking about it. We've been screaming it on this podcast for 10 years that every female client that I ever trained, I had to bump her protein. It was just like almost no matter what, no matter what their goal was. When I would sit down and then track where their protein intake, most people were grossly under eating. Everybody was under eating protein. Nobody was getting the optimal.

And to your point, I mean, yeah, people, I've trained a lot of clients that were eating okay amount of protein, but not for building muscle, not optimally or not for sparing muscle when you're on a strict diet. And so I feel like the one and two, This is like the main focus. You've got to get enough protein.

If you are already eating super low calorie and then you're also eating low amount of protein. Oh, boy.

If you are already eating super low calorie and then you're also eating low amount of protein. Oh, boy.

If you are already eating super low calorie and then you're also eating low amount of protein. Oh, boy.

We're not feeding it enough calories. We're not feeding it enough protein. Absolutely, it will pare down. And then you will fall into that statistic that you talked about when we first started, which is losing 40% of lean body mass.

That's it. Here's the thing, the point to get across. you are not going to build muscle right now. You're just not, not in this calorie deficit. So we're just trying to keep muscle. And we, so the signal that we need to send to the body is just let, give it a reason to stay. That's it. It's like, and giving it a reason to stay is just use it.

Like literally that's the way I would be communicating to a client is like, listen, here's your two lifts. Just use it. I don't, moderate intensity. You do not, I don't need you sweating like crazy. I don't need you going to failure. It's literally go through the motions, tell your body, hey, we need to keep this muscle because I'm going to lift weights every day.

And that's it, to think like that. And that's the idea when you go into this is feed the body what it needs protein wise, send a signal to the body, just two exercises to let it know, hey, we're going to need some muscle because we're going to be doing this every day, but no reason to crush it.
