How to get rid of a plateau

Good info!!:flowerforyou:0

I think I need to try this. I am stuck after upping my cals from a long time on a VLCD.
Doing something is better than feeling stuck, and yet I am irrationally fearful. It is so hard to get over the "less is more" mentality.0 -

For the record I went from 1800 to 4000 (even 4200 sometimes) during my bulk phase. So yes, don't be afraid.0 -

Same here. I've been stuck around the same weight for 6 months (now THAT is a plateau) and my first instincts are to eat less and exercise more. During these 6 months I've tried upping my cals, lowering them, upping them again, working out more, working out less, changing my workouts and nothing seems to help. Even when I was training for the half marathon and burning over 4000 cals a week, the weight wasn't moving. Super frustrating.0 -

When it comes to preservation, the bodies is sure full of ressources. We keep having a tenacious approach linked to body image, while what matters for the body is more how to make you still alive and able to perform no matter what's happening. Stress induced inappropriate diets and trainings are always something to consider from a biological side0 -
