Caloric deficits are commonly used to try to lose fat and gain muscle at the same time, but a new study showed that if the deficit is too big, it can have detrimental effects on performance in an alarmingly short period of time.
So what can you do to optimize body composition? Calculate your energy availability based on your goals to know how much you should eat outside of training, use an optimized macro ratio for your daily nutrition, and fuel your workouts based on the research-backed instructions in this video.
Consult with a medical professional and/or expert in the field of dietetics when you are undertaking changes that could compromise your health.

Hi TrainerRoad - funny story: I am in the video at 4:14 in the stock footage haha. I also just finished my MPH in nutrition in dietetics and am an RD who works in eating disorder treatment. Happy to see you bring awareness to REDs! Just a note - would always recommend adding a disclaimer to videos to work with your primary care provider and a dietitian (RDs with a specialization in sports will have a CSSD by their name! And eating disorder providers will likely have CEDS by their name, but not all eating disorder providers carry this credential) when attempting to lose weight. Thanks again for talking about this!

I've read the paper. I think the physiology is sound and as a proof of concept addressing the metabolic response to extreme caloric restriction on muscle metabolomics is interesting and of value. However a 900 calorie/d restriction is of course extreme and perhaps the responses don't necessarily reflect the responses to more modest restriction. The concluding advice I'm sure is reasonable!
@TrainerRoad
@TrainerRoad 6 ай бұрын
Agreed. Modest caloric deficits are more sustainable and less risky. The negative impact of the common use case of skipping a meal, however, is often underestimated.
@NigelTufnel-11
@NigelTufnel-11 6 ай бұрын
@trainerroad: but is the negative impact of skipping a meal (presuming a person has some adipose tissue they can afford to lose) really a negative? Skipping a meal (thus keeping insulin repressed and glucagon active) is an entirely different proposition than simply reducing caloric intake across all meals, but continuing to eat throughout the day. The reduction of caloric intake across a ‘normal’ meal schedule is very likely the cause of the large drop in BMR found in this study.

If so, what is the time range before the workout that would be considered as Intake calories, for example, 10, 30, 60 minutes? I remember from a few years ago, Amber said that the window for post ride recovery was more like a garage door rather than a window. I do not remember if you covered pre-ride calories.

As an overweight cyclist 20kg into a 35kg weight loss goal, while still trying to get faster, I am in love with the concept of a scientifically backed formula for calorie consumption. Thank you TR! My problem is much more than 30*FFM (as measured by Garmin index s2) grinds my weight loss to a halt. Is this a case of YMMV? Should I look at validating my scales FFM/body fat estimate? Could it be the distribution of macros of my diet? I use MFP for calorie tracking and tend to be on the pessimistic side of any unknowns and use a power meter to track workouts, so I’d like to think they’re not miles out

There's nothing really wrong with running a 900 calorie deficit as long as you're getting all the macros you need. I started TrainerRoad and ran a similar deficit all the way until summer, lost 30 lbs and gained 80w on my FTP in the process. Now I've stayed the same weight and have added another 35w on top of that. Just have to be smart about how you do it, don't cut out so much food that you're not getting the correct amount of protein or not enough carbs for your workouts!

​@@timtaylor9590 "You can't get macros without getting calories." - This is true. However, you can eat calories that don't have the right composition of macros. For instance gummy bears are high in carbs, and low in protein, fat. If you eat the right foods, in the right quantities, you can remain in a deficit while still taking in adequate macronutrients.
@timtaylor9590
@timtaylor9590 6 ай бұрын
@@liamcooper3836 define adequate? Isn't that the very debate being had. Sufficient macros for optimal gains. Sure gains can be made with different ratios of macros but no matter the ratio if youre getting an adequate amount then by no means would it ever be considered deficient. In my experience having a balanced macro intake is best because it's easier for the body to use carbs for fast energy, fat for longer, less intense sustained efforts, and protein for rebuilding. I wouldn't recommend using protein for energy unless you're trying to make an extreme body composition change like cutting body builders. I don't see an advantage in restricting any one macro if performance and gains are the goal. Again restricting one or two macros isn't calorie deficient, it seems the original commenter is confused or mis worded it.

I think it also depends what your current weight is. Running a calorie deficit of 900 cal if you weigh lets say 155 lbs (70 kg) is drastic. Whereas if you have an additional 30 lbs to lose which is mostly fat then losing 900 cal while maintaining a balanced diet is okay.

Great Video! Cutting the KCal in half is very drastic and it is no surprise that the bmr dropped. In terms of weight loss you shouldn't drop more than 1% of you body weight per week in order to prevent severe much muscle loss. If you you are a 125lb female that would be around 600kcal deficit (very restricted) , diet breaks would be highly recommended to reduce impact on the BMR. Increasing Protein is also a must during those restrictions in my opinion. A Calculator would be great!

This video was super helpful. But... 90g of carbs per hour on the bike seems like a LOT. That's more than 4 gels or equivalent per hour. It makes sense in terms of energy balance, I'm just not sure how I could sustain that kind of intake, and I'm concerned about the impact on my glucose levels both during and after the ride. I'm not diabetic but I'm old enough that I don't think my insulin response is what it used to be.

So far I’ve used a ratio that some bodybuilders use. Basically aiming to hit 40% protein calories where carbs and fats fall into their own place. For any rides I have a decent pre ride meal. But generally don’t fuel for two hour endurance rides. I do want to start fuelling during my rides. When I initially started my deficit I saw a 20% drop in performance. But have started to make gains again with a consistent week over week increase. I’m trying to drop from 92kg to 75ish.

Over the past handful of years research has shown that performance improves and recovery improves with carbohydrate ingestion is in excess of 60g/hr (what was thought to be the maximum for years). This seems to be largely aided by adding in Fructose to another carbohydrate source like Glucose/Maltodextrin. Anecdotally, there are some pro cyclists that take in as much as 160g/hr on the bike. Considering that riding at 200 watts for an hour burns ~720 calories, you'd need to take in 180g of carbs to finish that ride and not have created a calorie deficit, so you can see why it is so important, even on easier workouts, to fuel the work.

@@TrainerRoad Got it, thanks for the answer. Just for context, I am on the lighter side: I'm around 60kg, so even for SST/VO2Max workouts, my average power for the ride tends to be around 130-160 watts when including rest intervals and warmups. So when I saw posts on various other forums citing 90g, I assumed it was just for the heavier riders putting out more power.

When you complete a graphic, please leave it on the screen for at least one whole second. Would love to have a few secs to take it in, think, calculate a bit, etc. Thanks in advance!

Interesting video! I'm interested in how we could then put that into effect to lose weight. Obviously some sort of on/off cycle (or over/under would be a better description!😊) but in what ratio us the question!? Something like 1 week above / 1 week below? Or 5 days above / 2below 1 day above /1 below Or maybe playing it safe (and slow!) 2 weeks above / 1 week below.... Endless possibilities! ( I realise we are all individuals so this may vary but as a general rule) Any thoughts on this please? Thanks.
