Hey Wynand here,
So, without going into detail, I have been participating in a transformation challenge from the fine people at ProPhysique.
Now I have been giving some sporadic updates, as recently as last week.
And everything went well.
Until I completed week 4.
Hitting a week 4 plateau.
It’s the plateau man.
Yes, I hit a
- physical – no weight loss for the week
- Mental – was just not happy about not losing any weight
- energy – my body felt drained
plateau.
It was tough, to say the least.
So, I sucked in the old stomach, pulled up my big boy pants, and took a deep breath.
Analised my week.
Did other measurements and found I lost 3 cm since my last check.
Ended up that the scale is not everything.
Had a refeed weekend, to add some calories back in my diet.
and low and behold…
I am feeling re-energized and ready for this week.
So the plan is to:
- Hit my daily protein targets
- Increase my cardio
- and continue to add a type of refeed over the weekends where I will eat clean but more towards my maintenance calory intake.
Will keep ya posted….
