Don’t know where to start when it comes to protein intake?

Overwhelmed with all of the “general” information out there that really doesn’t get you anywhere?

I gotchu boo.

I’ve been on my fitness journey for 6 years & just recently got it down.

Also, as someone who was once vegan, I know from personal experience that it is a huge struggle because you always run the risk of being nutrient deficient IF you don’t do it the right way.

Before we get into it, check out my last reel “This will change the way you get your protein” where I begin with the basics.

Here, I’m focusing on those with specific dietary needs, restrictions, or those wondering how to lose weight while getting enough protein.

Basically, protein is crucial for building and repairing tissues, producing enzymes and hormones, and supporting immune function. It also plays a vital role in maintaining muscle mass and promoting satiety.

Complete proteins contain all essential amino acids, while incomplete proteins lack one or more. Animal products like meat, fish, eggs, and dairy are usually complete, while many plant-based sources are incomplete.

“So can I get enough protein from a vegetarian or vegan diet?”

Yes, it’s possible to get enough protein from plant-based sources such as legumes, tofu, tempeh, quinoa, and nuts. Combining different plant-based protein sources throughout the day helps ensure you get a complete range of essential amino acids and form a complete protein.

“Can I still lose weight on a high protein diet?”

Of course boo! Clinical recommendations suggest that you get around 25 to 35 percent of your daily calories from protein to support weight loss. Dietary protein contains four calories per gram. This means if you consume 1,500 calories per day, then you should eat about 94 to 132 grams of protein every day.

Let’s talk about cycle syncing/training: how to workout during different times of the month

As women, our hormones are set at a 28 day cycle as opposed to the 24 hour cycle of men. This is why we feel such a difference in our gym performance at different times of the month.

Cycle syncing, aligning various aspects of life with the different phases of the menstrual cycle, offers several benefits and helps us understand how to train to optimize our performance.

Here’s how ⬇️

1️⃣ Improved Hormonal Balance:

Aligning nutrition and lifestyle choices with hormonal fluctuations contributes to improved hormonal balance, potentially reducing symptoms associated with hormonal imbalances.

2️⃣ Enhanced Energy Levels:

Syncing activities with the natural energy fluctuations throughout the menstrual cycle helps maximize energy levels and reduce feelings of fatigue.

3️⃣ Better Stress Management:

Understanding and adapting to the hormonal changes assists in better stress management. During certain phases, incorporating relaxation practices is particularly beneficial.

4️⃣ Hormone-Driven Productivity:

Utilizing the phases of the menstrual cycle to align tasks and activities significantly enhances productivity and focus, as certain cognitive functions may vary throughout the cycle.

Use these tips as a guide for your workouts and really feel the shift in your mood, energy, and focus.🧠💪

8️⃣ Consistency is Key:

Establish a consistent workout routine. Aim for at least 3-4 days of exercise per week. Consistency over time yields better results than sporadic intense workouts.

9️⃣ Mix Up Your Routine:

Keep your workouts interesting by trying different exercises and activities. This not only prevents boredom but also challenges your body in new ways.

Include a mix of cardiovascular exercises (e.g., walking, jogging, cycling) and strength training (using weights or resistance machines) in your routine. This provides a well-rounded approach to fitness.

🔟 Prioritize Recovery:

Allow your body time to recover. Get enough sleep, incorporate rest days into your routine, and consider activities like stretching or yoga to enhance flexibility and relaxation.

1️⃣1️⃣ Have Fun:

Find activities you enjoy to make your workouts more enjoyable. Whether it’s a dance class, group fitness, or solo sessions, make fitness a positive and rewarding experience.

1️⃣2️⃣ Celebrate your victories:

Remember, no one starts as an expert, and practice makes progress. Celebrate your achievements along the way, stay positive, and enjoy the process of becoming a healthier version of yourself! If you showed up, you already won.

My goal is to create a supportive community where we support, uplift, and teach one another. Let’s dominate this year together 🫶✨💪
