Ep. 75 How To Create A Calorie Deficit (If You’re Into That Sort of Thing)

We’re back with another FAQ from my clients. It’s pretty common in fitness for people looking for specific physique or weight changes to try and achieve a calorie deficit. So, this week, we’re diving into exactly what that means. We’re covering everything from:

• What exactly is a calorie deficit
• Why it is or isn’t necessary for your physique goals
• Several ways to achieve a calorie deficit
• The issue with most online tracker formulas
• My recommendation for determining maintenance calories & an appropriate deficit
• And more!

While I do recommend the self-tracking method I mentioned above, if you do feel the need to get a baseline number to start you on your journey, I highly recommend the Precision Nutrition Calculator.

If you’re struggling with constant dieting, maybe too large of a deficit and yo-yoing back and forth between diets, I highly recommend my Ditch the Diet Drama program to learn how to eat sustainably, without restriction and with a feeling of satisfaction without overindulgence.
