How to Reverse Diet After Eating Too Little - Day 68

The Body Recomposition Revolution | Fat Loss and Strength for Women 35+

Show Notes

Can eating more fix a slow metabolism? What is reverse dieting, how do you reverse diet after eating too little, and how can you increase calories without gaining fat? In Day 68 of the Body Recomposition Revolution, we're talking about reverse dieting, metabolic adaptation, low energy availability, chronic dieting, under-eating, hormones, metabolism, muscle loss, and weight gain. I share my own experience increasing my intake by roughly 800 calories per day, initially gaining weight, then eventually eating dramatically more while sleeping better, recovering better, training harder, and building more muscle. We also look at research showing that increasing energy intake can improve reproductive function in exercising women with menstrual dysfunction. But here's the important distinction: eating more doesn't magically cause fat loss, and reverse dieting isn't a metabolism hack. The goal is to adequately fuel everything you're asking your body to do.
