Here is how to keep your muscle definition during BBQ season using Fitfood’s Low Carb meals.
Be Strict During the Week
If your weekends are going to be relaxed, your weekdays need to be disciplined. Think of your diet at home as "insurance."
By keeping your weekday meals low in carbs and high in protein, you create a buffer. This means you can enjoy a burger and a beer on Saturday without worrying about the additional calories
Why Low Carb Works
Less Bloat: Fewer carbs mean less water retention, keeping your muscles looking sharp.
Stay Full: Protein and healthy fats keep you fuller for longer, stopping you from snacking.
Burn Fat: It encourages your body to use stored fat for fuel during the week.
