Reverse Dieting: What Is It and Should YOU Try It?? | MIND PUMP 

Reverse dieting is one of the best things I've ever done. My trainer and I decided it was the best course for me and I actually lost weight going from 1200 calories to 2,125 calories. I'm only 5'2" and was 138 when I started. 124 now.

Sal - Well done, as always. This really is a game changer for a lot of people. Mentally challenging to make that leap!

It works. It really does. Continually eating low calorie and not losing weight. Upped my calories on a ketogenic diet and down seven pounds .

She looks awesome👌🏻

Love this channel and podcast.. Sal as usual on top of his Italian Game :D Nicely done!

Thanks for the video. How do you know if it's worked and if it's ok to start a calorie restricting diet again,?

Basic concepts. Regardless of whether your goal is to gain weight or lose weight, you need to proceed in incremental steps. Never go for broke at first. Once youre at your "lowest" calorie level then you have to step back up to your new base level. However the average person (women typically) commit this cardinal sin day in and day out.

Was Holly on her way to or from the gym when this was recorded?

Curious to know your thoughts on someone who is on BC and your coach continues to point this out as the limiting factor- not dieting history or anything else. Love your podcast huge fan of listening to episodes all the time!

Hi mind pump tv, i have a question for you, hope you dont mind to answer it🙏🏼 so i have reverse diet for 5 months, and i have reached 2100 calories from 1000 calories. do you think 1 month is enough to hold my new calorie maintenance before i starting to cut? Because i’ve gained too much in measurement and weight and i cant resist it anymore. My pants wont fit and many people say that i am “bigger” now (not in a good way). Im so insecure right now and so freaking stress, i really want to start my cut, but im afraid it wont working because i have only maintain it for a month. But i just cant resist to hold it for any longer. I dont need that much food excelly because i feel forced to eat everything (im not really a foodie) and i really tired of weight training. I just want to get everything done and back to my normal lifestyle. Im glad i have found your channel, because you really give the right education and information about reverse dieting. First time i discovered reverse diet was from my ex coach and it really my biggest regret last year.

I’ve started gaining weight after 1900 calories and maintained my calories at 1800 calories , so do I stay at 1800? since I want to lose weight not gain while still increasing calories

i have a question: should i cut or reverse diet after 3 months dieting 1900 kcal day? i'm a male tall 5,67 weight 189,60 lbs at 17 percent body fat..i'd love to get down 13-15 body fat..sometimes i'm feeling very resticted,tired,craving things,sleeping not always well...diet worked out so far and still working.. i started out with 21 BF now i am 17 BF it was a very slow process cause the weight still pretty much the same all diet period but the fat goes down and body composition is changing... what do you think?

I hope there is a discussion here about calorie density. We can eat a TON of high fiber plant foods for a very low calorie load. No starving. Still eat the protein/meat you feel like is required.

Very helpful. I've had to cut carbs/calories for years because disability keeps me from being active. If I go over 1100 calories even a little bit, I'll gain fat. Now I'm definitely going to try this out! Can't believe I didn't know about Mind Pump until the Tom Bilyeu episode.

How do you know your lean body mass?

Good morning , I have been counting Macros , for about 6 months ago , I was 185 Pounds and Now I’m 150 Pounds , I was wondering shoul I considering doing the reverse diet ? How it will benefit me ?

When you say "6 months to a year" of reversing before approaching weight loss, what are the things that you look for that determine when you can start cutting again in that time frame?

If I was dieting and down to maybe 1200 Calories a day for three month do I have to do reverse dieting

What’s your thoughts on reverse dieting after 10 years of being severely underweight and has been diagnosed with anorexia who’s wanting to avoid excessive disproportionate fat gain that often comes with standard anorexia refeeding (especially combined with a good training program)?

I have been on a yoyo diet for 3 years and my weight is a little low right now. Can I reverse the diet immediately? I mean, I want to add 100 calories every week and gain muscle mass. I am thinking of doing a reverse diet for 1-2 months and then losing a 200 calorie deficit.

I’m 5’3 and 110lbs. How high do you think I could get my calories without it causing significant weight gain? I’m at 1,700 right now and do strength training 3-4 days a week so I’m active but not insanely active.

Sal, Can you shortly write a definite program after this nice conversation with buty holly,

what about people who love food

I love the concept of reverse dieting but there's always one thing that confuses me. Do you add × amount of calories everyday for a week or for the entire week? E.g *Adding 50cal everyday to 1500cal diet* Monday-1550 Tuesday-1550 Wednesday-1550 Thursday-1550 Friday-1550 Saturday-1550 Sunday-1550 OR *Dividing 50cal by 7 days a week on a 1500cal diet in order for it to add up to 50cal* Monday-1507 Tuesday-1507 Thursday-1507 Friday-1507 Saturday-1507 Sunday-1507 Can anybody help me please?

Cute smile she has. Not my favorite accent though. In all seriousness though she's smart and seems like a cool person.

A diet is what you eat you need to change your diet if you want to lose weight so you are all on a diet forever or you will always be overweight

Happens with males too yeah? Not just females...

Intermittent fasting then adding one three meal hi calorie day keeps you from adjusting to the one meal lower calorie diet! What your saying does not really true. won't work for most people.

Dam holly that accent is chewed up. Love you guys though!

She's helped me get off so many times it's a true testament to her level of hotness. Top tier aussie p
