How to keep hunger at bay while in a calorie deficit 💥
1) Try eat vegetables at every meal. Soluble fiber found in vegetables dissolves in water to form a gel like substance that helps regulate blood sugar levels as well as increasing satiety 🥗
2) Eat low calorie fruits that contain heaps of fiber and water. You can eat these in large amounts with minimal calorie intake. My favorite one to go for is watermelon 🍉
3) Eat protein with every meal. As well as being the macro with the highest thermic effect (costs more calories to digest), protein is also the most filling macro of the 3 🍗
4) Make sure your water intake is approximately 1ml per calorie consumed. For example if you're eating 1500 cal/day then consume 1.5L of water. This doesn't include the water you drink during training 🥤

AMPK and fat loss 💥
AMPK stands for adenosine monophosphate activated protein kinase and is an enzyme that helps to regulate homeostasis within our cells. AMPK is activated during energy depletion meaning when ATP is low, AMPK is activated to regulate energy within the cell 📚
The AMPK pathway has these effects within the body;
•Glucose uptake and utilization by activating GLUT4 transporters.
•Fatty acid oxidation by activating Adipose Triglyceride Lipase.
•Autophagy (clearance of damaged cell components to regenerate cells)
•Inhibits fatty acid synthesis
•Inhibits glycogen synthesis
In short, activation of AMPK creates a better environment for fat loss via the mechanisms mentioned above and can be activated by bouts of difficult training that last 60 seconds or more ⏱

Why do you want to lose weight? Why do you want to get stronger? Why do you want to gain muscle? If your answer to these questions are not elaborate or emotionally charged, you're less likely to achieve these goals 🚫
What's the real reason besides "I want to have a good physique."? Do you want to be able to run around with your kids without being out of breath? Do you want to be strong so that in old age you can get up the stairs without a railing? Do you want to reduce the load on your heart? Be honest with yourself because it's literally your journey, it's your body and it's your future you're creating or destroying ✔

Throwback to 2015 when I had no quality of life and no priorities other than gym 😂
At moments we can become obsessed during our health and fitness journey but upon reflecting we see the things we gave up were more important than what we gained for a few weeks or months. Aim for balance and health and your physique will fall in line. Most of us ain't trying to get on stage or run 100m in 9 seconds so ask yourself what you're really doing it for and act appropriately 💯
