1/17/24 - Day 10 - Hitting a Daily Protein Goal - Daily Scoring
Daily Scoring/Posting - Level Up Accountability Sheet - Google Sheets I'd like to get a better handle on where everyone is on a daily to make sure everyone gets the BEST results possible from these 8 weeks. Please post your macros daily to this spreadsheet. If you'd like to keep that private, just type an x and screenshot your results to me directly. This lets me know you are giving it your best shot, and that you want to be successful....This is my work and I'd like nothing more than to see all of you be en route to feeling, looking, performing like you never have in your life. If you're open to that, I'm in to give you the best feedback possible. HITTING A PROTEIN GOAL This seems to be the most common feedback I'm getting so far. The reason we emphasize this so much is: 1. Protein is the #1 macronutrient for muscle, repair, recovery 2. Protein has the highest Thermic Effect (you increase your metabolism naturally by having more protein and it takes the longest to digest) 3. Protein keeps you fuller than any other macronutrient. If you go over on pure protein, you are also very unlikely to gain weight. 4. Protein improves bone density. Because you'll develop stronger muscles from consuming higher amounts of protein, you'll also develop better bone density. 5. Protein is anti-aging. Because protein is responsible for repairing tissue, eating higher quantities of protein will keep your skin looking younger as well. If you have never eaten a high protein diet, shoot for the 0.8g/pound of bodyweight. If you have been training consistently, but haven't focused on protein, shoot for 1 to 1.2 grams/pound of bodyweight. These are lean protein options. Again, there is nothing wrong with having fattier options, they will increase your overall amount of calories. If you prefer fattier meats, try to choose grass-fed, cage free, wild caught options as the fat has more health benefits from those sources.
