Week 8 Of Phase 2 Diet

Today we finished up week 7. We have a few more weeks left to go and with our current macros we are in a caloric deficit. In week 8 we will adjust cardio by adding 1 extra cardio session. This should enable us to avoid a plateau and put us further into a caloric deficit. At this point you should have a little less energy but this is where its important to remain consistent. With calories, especially carbohydrates this low it's expected not to have the same energy levels when not in such a severe caloric deficit. Staying consistent when you're tired mentally and physically is what separates those who succeed from those who give up.
