Weight loss and nutrition advice

 

We all know nutrition is important, but it really is one of the most important factors for getting yourself in shape. Building lean muscle is hard enough but you need to start with your food intake.

I provide for my clients weekly balanced diet and nutrition program to follow based on calorie intake depending on requirements. On average female require 2000 calories per day and male 2500calories. However your BMR (Basic Metabolic Rare) is only part of this total requirement, but this may varies depending on your activity level.
