Metabolic Kick Start
I am following the nutritional program of Dr. Joe Klemczewski at the recommendation of my trainer. The crux of his program seems to be reducing insulin and increasing glucagon so that fat stores will be tapped for energy instead. Our plan is for me to eat the following macronutrient spread for one week: fat 30g, protein 100g, carb 130g. On day 3 or 4 of this pattern, I should experience some of the symptoms of hypoglycemia as my body has depleted its existing glycogen stores and is now looking for a new fuel source. And then- voila! Fat loss begins, which will also normalize my blood glucose levels and I should feel fine after that transition day.
It is really interesting not counting calories. Now I feel like I am solving a puzzle in balancing my five meals so that at the end of the day I have reached my macronutrient goal, instead of simply excluding something that has too many calories. The longer I train, the more I realize that results depends so greatly on what happens OUTSIDE of the gym. I’m feeling so excited to have a solid plan, and can’t wait to see what has happened at the end of the week.
