In this episode of The Squats and Sober Thoughts Podcast, Max Larocque dives into the crucial topic of 'committing to the cut' for successful fat loss. Max shares his own experiences and reflections on how important it is to set a clear duration for a fat loss phase. He discusses the optimal length for a fat loss phase, suggesting that 8 to 16 weeks is ideal, depending on individual body fat levels.
Max emphasises that fat loss should not be a lifelong endeavour but a temporary phase aimed at achieving specific goals. Max provides actionable steps to make your fat loss journey more effective. He stresses the importance of accurate calorie tracking and warns against the pitfalls of 'gamifying' your calorie intake. According to Max, hitting your weekly calorie target is more important than daily precision.
He also highlights the significance of meeting protein and fibre requirements to aid in muscle recovery and satiety. One of the standout points in the episode is the concept of a 'compromise week,' where you meticulously track every morsel you consume to get a true picture of your calorie intake. This exercise can be eye-opening and help you understand where you might be going wrong.
Max also tackles the challenges of social events and how to navigate them without derailing your progress. He suggests two approaches: either fasting before the event or loading up on protein and fibre to stay full and avoid overeating. Additionally, he advises being mindful of alcohol and cannabis intake, as they can lead to mindless munching and derail your fat loss efforts. Max wraps up the episode by discussing the importance of sleep in regulating appetite and impulse control.
He recommends prioritising sleep hygiene to stay on track during your fat loss phase. If you're looking to commit to a fat loss phase and need practical advice, this episode is packed with valuable tips and insights that can help you achieve your goals.
