A nuanced approach to health

A healthy body isn't just a lighter one.

Maintaining and building muscle mass is one of the strongest indicators of long-term health outcomes. We focus on building something sustainable.

In a calorie deficit

Train smart.
Eat enough.

1

The trifecta for preserving muscle while in deficit

Progressive overload when resistance training
Good sleep quality
High protein diet

2

Fuel hard training sessions

Your body needs carbs and fat to sustain itself — even more so when training hard.

3

No extreme deficits

A heavy deficit you can't sustain leads to less success long-term, increases injury risk, and makes muscle harder to maintain.

About weight loss & body fat

Know your range.

Everyone is different, but for most people a healthy body fat range is 10–20% for men and 20–30% for women.

A sustainable weight loss rate is around 0.5–1% of total body weight per week.

About calories

Your call.

Knowing caloric intake can be helpful to hit muscle gain and fat loss goals. But we hide calories by default because obsessing over them rarely helps and can be dangerous for many. If you're tracking intentionally as part of a healthy plan — that's your call.
