RIO Fitness Chicago® Tip:

To see quick, long lasting results from exercise/nutrition, we must be able to answer YES to these ?s.

Are we drinking 80-120oz of water/day, especially during exercise?

Do we consume a whey isolate protein after both cardio & strength training to create more lean tissue so we can burn more cal all day long?

Are we doing cardio properly to be burning majority cal from fat & not energy?

Are we strength training properly for our goal (bodybuilding, lean/tone, sports)?

Are we staying within our specific daily calorie limit?

Are we eating every 2.5-3hrs to keep our metabolism fast & our blood sugar levels stable?

Are LEAN proteins (white meat, fish, eggs, beans, unsalted/raw nuts) a part of every meal/snack so we help our muscles recover/rebuild/regenerate & keep us feeling full longer?

Do we limit bread/pasta/rice/oat carbs to only after exercise?

These are the basics to seeing guaranteed results.
