In this episode of The FitBod Blueprint, Coach Phil Pirtle and Coach Tyler Wiebe tackle a common pitfall in fat loss journeys: the relentless seven-day-a-week dieting mindset. They explore why constant restriction can backfire, leading to burnout, increased cravings, and a strained relationship with food.
Phil and Tyler break down two powerful strategies to combat this cycle:
- Refeed Days: Controlled calorie increases, typically with more carbs and fats, to boost energy, recovery, and mental resilience.
- Untracked Windows: A flexible two-hour window to enjoy a meal without tracking, offering balance without derailing progress.
They dive into the science behind these approaches, discuss who benefits most from each, and share actionable tips for implementing them effectively. Whether you're prepping for a physique competition, juggling parenthood, or simply aiming for sustainable fat loss, this episode is packed with insights to keep your journey balanced and effective.
🎯 Key Takeaway: Consistency beats perfection. A flexible approach creates long-term success without sacrificing your social life or sanity.
