Complete Roadmap to Your Goal Physique
Based on your calorie and protein targets - adjust portions to hit your exact numbers
Week 1-2: Focus on consistency over perfection. Get within ±150 calories of target. Track everything. Your body is adapting.
Week 3-4: Tighten tracking to ±100 calories. Take progress photos. Adjust based on actual results, not how you "feel."
Week 5+: If progress stalls 2+ weeks, make ONE change at a time. Never change multiple variables.
Training: Lift heavy 3-4x/week minimum. Progressive overload is non-negotiable. Cardio is optional but helpful.
Sleep: 7-8 hours minimum. This is where fat loss actually happens. No negotiation.
Protein Timing: Spread evenly across 3-4 meals. 30-40g per meal is optimal for muscle protein synthesis.
Hydration: 1 gallon daily minimum. More if training hard or in deficit.
Refeed Strategy: If aggressive deficit, take ONE refeed day every 10-14 days at maintenance calories (high carb, moderate protein, low fat).
