Have you been dieting for weeks, months, or even years? Have you seen a stall, or a complete stop in your progress? If so, reverse dieting may be exactly what you need to do; in order to get past the plateau, and start seeing results!

Reverse dieting is a technique myself and my coaching clients do to increase resting metabolic rate and NEAT (non-exercise activity thermogenesis). The metabolism is very adaptable to our caloric intake. Chronic dieting can lead to metabolic adaptation; which the metabolism down-regulates to adjust to the low caloric intake. We burn less energy, and in-turn, we unconsiously move and fidget less. It will then take less and less food to lose weight; and weight loss becomes difficult, nearly impossible.

That's where reverse dieting comes in! You don't have to diet forever to get lean or stay lean! In this episode we learn how to know if you need to do a reverse diet or not. How to do a reverse diet, and also how to incorporate calorie cycling moving forward, so you can avoid metabolic adaptation in the first place.
