Michelle’s Maintenance Success Case Study
Michelle joined EPN to focus on getting stronger and having more energy throughout the day. She had some basic concepts of managing her nutrition, but in practice, she wasn’t sure when to make a change and when to let things settle.
She started the maintenance cohort in July 2023 at thinking her maintenance was 2100 calories. By the end of her maintenance phase, she was effortlessly eating 2550 calories and maintaining her bodyweight.
In 18 weeks, Michelle...
Increased calories by 450 / day
Increased protein by 20g /day
