September feels like a turning point, but…not in a “change your entire freaking life today” kind of way. It’s more like a transition. Summer is winding down, and routines are shifting. This is your opportunity to *finally* stop being wishy-washy about your fitness and decide what you actually want to work toward!In today’s episode, I’m building on the Fitness Audit (ep. 256), and everything we’ve been talking about with deficits, maintenance, and building muscle. Before you change your macros or adjust your workouts, you need to know your goal. Different goals require different strategies, and you can’t chase all of them at the same time.Fall doesn’t have to become another cycle of going all-in, quitting, and deciding you’ll start again in January. Do the Fitness Audit. Decide what you actually want, and choose the phase that supports that goal.You don’t need the perfect time or another complete overhaul. You need to decide, lock TF in, and give yourself enough time to actually get somewhere!Episode recap:Why you need to stop trying to fix every part of your fitness journey at onceUsing your Fitness Audit to identify the ONE area that needs your attention mostGetting clear on your actual goal before changing your macros or workoutsWhy you shouldn’t automatically default to a calorie deficit every time you want changeUnderstanding when maintenance might be the best goal for youWhy a build phase + eating more may be exactly what your body needsWhy building muscle matters at every age + stage of lifeWhy you don’t need the perfect Monday, season, or time to get startedCommitting to your plan long enough to get feedback + see progressUsing fall as a turning point instead of another cycle of going all-in and then quittingDeciding your goal, choosing the phase that supports it + locking TF inLinks/Resources:Ep. 256 | The Fitness Audit: What’s Actually Keeping You Stuck?Get your free Fitness AuditSHOP UFYF merchandiseGrab your FREE Body Recomp Meal Prep and get the UFYF NewsletterSHOP Kion - my favorite Protein, EAA’s and Creatine!Join FIT CLUB, my monthly membership with workouts you can do at home or the gymConnect with me on Instagram @kristycastillofit and @unfuckyourfitnesspodcastJoin my FREE Facebook group, Unf*ck Your FitnessClick HERE for my favorite fitness & life things!Send me a text with episode ideas or just to say hi!
