It is a frustrating truth that no matter how hard and how well you are training, at some point in time, you will reach a plateau that you just can’t get over.

When you’re bulking up, this is because your muscles do not have enough nutrition to continue to grow. As you train, your muscle mass increases and you get stronger and you may need to eat more protein in order to maintain your evolving physique.

Similarly, if you’re cutting back your progress can be slowed down because excess nutrition is limiting the rate of fat loss.

When it comes to nutrition, small changes in your diet can mean big changes to your body.

Your nutrition needs are constantly changing and achieving the best nutrition plan for optimum fitness is a complex task. As your fitness improves and as your body changes, you need to fine-tune your nutrition in order to continue making progress. This is called dynamic nutrition.

When you reach a plateau, fitness experts recommend that you adjust your daily calorie intake by 500 calories for a period of a week. If you see no result you then make a further adjustment.

Some people fail to recognize the need for this change and stick rigidly to the same printed nutrition plan that served them well at the start of their fitness program.

Others know that they need to make alterations but find it difficult to work out what to do.

What they all have in common is that they risk making slower progress or in fact no progress, despite keeping up a tough exercise and training program.

When it comes to nutrition, small changes in your diet can mean big changes to your body.

It’s easy to work out how to change the number of calories you eat each day but making sure that you get exactly the right proportion of carbs, protein and fat is vital and this is where most people go wrong. The calculations become complicated and without expert guidance it is easy to make the wrong changes or just not enough of the right ones.

But if you are going to get over your plateau, dynamic nutrition will dramatically enhance your progress.

The experts agree on this and Men’s Fitness magazine summed it up when they said:

“If you learn how to eat right, you can double the benefits of your training; crafting that body you want in half the time”.

So, whether you use a program like plan:one with its unique Dynamic Nutrition Technology that works out everything automatically for you in seconds, or do it the hard way and calculate your requirements manually, dynamic nutrition will deliver the fitness results you want.
