Week 8 of the 8 Week Hard Core Trainer Series! This episode of the Knowledge and Mileage Podcast discusses how to reverse diet safely and efficiently.

This episode is all about understanding what your life looks like healthier and how you can continue helping your body get better. Reverse Dieting Recap Increase carbs by 50 grams per week for 4 weeks. By week 4 you should be eating 200 more grams of carbs than when you finished the Hardcore Trainer.

To maintain your physique, you should be doing at minimum 25 minutes of cardio in the morning and 25 minutes in the evening. Limit your sugar intake - don't rush to the Cheesecake Factory.
