From Dieting to Building: The Multi-Phase Strategy

Lose Fat or Build Muscle Quiz: https://skd-n8p4dzzf.scoreapp.com Most people approach fitness with a single goal: lose weight. But long-term body composition change involves more than just dieting.In this episode, we break down the multi-phase strategy for improving body composition — moving from fat loss, to maintenance, and eventually into muscle building. We discuss why the scale often increases after a dieting phase, how glycogen and water stores affect body weight, and why that change doesn’t necessarily mean fat gain.We also explore what happens physiologically after a period of calorie restriction, why hunger and energy levels can shift, and why a structured maintenance phase can play an important role in maintaining results.Finally, we discuss how transitioning into a lean muscle-building phase can help improve body composition over time and reduce the need for repeated dieting cycles.If you’ve ever finished a diet and wondered what to do next, this episode explains the bigger picture approach to long-term progress.Connect with us on Instagram:Sean: https://www.instagram.com/seanskdcoaching?igsh=MW5kYzQxMGtxMzhtYQ==Katie: https://www.instagram.com/katieskdcoaching?igsh=OWxtdGt0MzVkeGh4&utm_source=qr
