How to Go in a Calorie Surplus and Strength Train for Tone - Day 76

In this episode, we focus on the BUILD phase, shifting your goal from fat loss to building lean muscle through strength training, proper nutrition, and recovery. Learn why building muscle doesn't mean getting bulky and how to fuel your workouts effectively with protein and carbs. Embrace progress measured by strength gains and muscle development rather than scale weight. Today's actionable targets: pick one lift and record your baseline to track progress over 4 weeks, hit your protein target based on your goal body weight, and choose your physique and strength goals. Stay consistent, be patient, and remember: you can't reveal muscle if you don't give yourself time to build it.TODAY'S 3 RAC TARGETS1.
