Since increasing my macros and adjusting my training, I am now sitting around 102-103. The goal is to get me up to around 110 so that I can cut at a healthy weight and get my calories high enough to do so with the goal of ultimately competing in a bikini show in the spring of 2020. 110 seems like a lot of weight! What are your thoughts on this? 8:40 - I have been counting macros for a little over a year and love it. It has brought me so much freedom and enjoyment to my fitness journey. I am very very active I spin quite a few days a week and strength train several days as well. I weigh about 108-110 and am 5'4. My question would be in regards to daily calorie intake I currently intake about 1500-1650 and my macros are roughly 45% protein 30% carb and 25% fat? Does this sound good for maintenance or should I increase? Which macro would be the best to increase? 13:55 - Can you discuss a natural lifters genetic potential for gaining muscle? 19:15. -What’s your take on carb cycling. Generally speaking. Is there any real validity to it for women who aren’t working towards anything specific. Just fat loss and more muscle tone.  26:35. - Best advice for tips on trying to lift heavy without having a spotter. Trying to push the last few reps while lifting solo in the gym gets difficult with certain lifts like squats & bench. I feel like I have 2-3 more in the tank, but I have to back off vs getting stuck in the hole. 29:20 - When you go to maintenance from a deficit do you ease into it like a reverse diet? Or do you go straight to maintenance without delay? 33:30 - When implementing a 48 hour refeed, should I continue to exercise as I would normally? 36:20 - Do you have any advice on transitioning from being with a coach to not having one and how to maintain a sort of “self accountability”?   ---- Get Your Free Copy of The Nutrition Hierarchy, HERE  Learn How We Coach: Read This Case Study Article Top 4 Episodes: - Nutritional Periodization - Nutrition FAQ - Training FAQ - My Story ---- You can get access to ALL of our content in one place, now: www.boomboomperformance.com/links Join The Boom Boom Elite (BBP’s Membership Site) to receive exclusive content and interviews, monthly training programs, bonus eBooks, the private coaching forum, and more by visiting www.boomboomperformance.com/elite ASK BOOM-BOOM YOUR QUESTION HERE! : www.boomboomperformance.com/podcast Check out all of our e-books by visiting
