In our latest group coaching call, Coach Craig focused on the essential strategies for achieving effective body recomposition, especially for women over 40. Here’s a glimpse of what he discussed:👉Strength Training for Muscle Growth:Craig highlighted the importance of lifting heavier weights with proper form and consistency. Building muscle requires patience and progressively challenging your body. Craig provided personalized feedback on members’ training regimens, emphasising that sustainable muscle growth takes time and effort.👉Proper Nutrition:Adequate nutrition is crucial for supporting muscle growth and recovery. He discussed the need for a balanced diet rich in protein and sufficient calories to fuel workouts. Avoiding excessively low-calorie diets is important to prevent muscle loss and maintain energy levels.👉Setting Realistic Goals:Craig addressed the common frustration of not seeing immediate results. He explained that while fat loss can be quickly visible, muscle building is a slower process. Setting realistic expectations and celebrating small progress is key to staying motivated.👉Strength Goals Before Fat Loss:Craig stressed the importance of hitting specific strength milestones before entering a fat loss phase. For example, achieving certain weights in lifts like the Romanian deadlift, squat, and bench press ensures you have enough muscle mass to maintain during a calorie deficit. This approach prevents muscle loss and enhances overall body composition.👉Mindset and Consistency:Shifting from a short-term goal mindset to embracing a long-term lifestyle change is vital. Consistency in both training and nutrition, along with a positive mindset, can lead to significant and sustainable body recomposition.This coaching call with Craig showcases the personalised support and expert advice our members receive in our Group Coaching Program + App.RESOURCES + LINKSMetabolic Reset ChallengeLearn more about our Winatlife Coaching optionsSaturée products use discount code KITTY20 for 20% off your first order.Drop Us A Review On The Podcast + Post a screenshot on Instagram stories and Tag @kittyblomfield for your chance to win a tub of Saturée Premium CollagenReview on SpotifyFOLLOWKitty Blomfield @kittyblomfieldCraig McDonald @iamcraigmcdonaldSHOW NOTES[00.00] Introduction - Welcome to the Weight Loss for Women podcast.
