I'm doing MAPS Anabolic right now and I'm in a reverse diet. I started at 1700 calories, and I'm at 2500 now. The goal is to end around 3000 to 3400 calories. My question is, when I'm done with the MAPS Anabolic program and I hit the high end of my calories, can I just restart from MAPS Anabolic again while at 3000 to 3400 calories and then run a different program when I cut back down to 2500?
I am currently running MAPS Anabolic, hitting 8,000-10,000 steps per day, and "inconsistently" tracking my calories and macros, averaging about 2,400 calories per day. My daily step goal used to average around 17,000-20,000, and I maintained a weight of around 205-210 lbs while teaching a high volume of classes. Now, I am struggling to drop below 246 lbs and 30+% body fat. I feel like I’m doing everything right in terms of exercise but am having difficulty getting the fat off my body without tracking for the rest of my life or following a fad diet.
What can I do to achieve my weight loss goals?
