Fitzy Bitzy: Fitness Blog – Weight Loss Blog – Trainer Blog

As a follow-up to my last post, I said that one day won’t make or break your weight loss program, but eating bad for an entire week will.  Nutrition really is the make or break it part of someone’s program.  Though resistance training and cardio are important, if my client isn’t keeping up on proper nutrition, then they aren’t going to be successful.  This can be said for any type of program, and I mean ANY.  If you’re not eating enough calories for a weight gaining program, then you’re not going to put on muscle.  If you’re eating too many calories for a weight loss program, then you’re not going to lose weight.  If you’re not eating at a calorie level that’s equal to what you burn off, then you’re not going to maintain your weight.  If an athlete eats horrible before competition, then chances are, their performance will suffer.

As I said, proper nutrition’s absolutely vital to achieve the results you want!  Keep this in mind as you enter the rest of this week and into the New Year.  If you haven’t already, make sure you check out my article, “Want to lose weight? – Make nutrition work for you“.  It goes into a lot more detail of how to structure a proper nutrition program to help your achieve the results you want.  I publish a new article each week for ColumbusSports.com.  All my articles can be found under the “Articles” link to the left in the “About Fitzy Bitzy” section.
