STOP Saving Calories for the Weekend (It's Making You Fatter)

You think you're being smart by eating less during the week to "save room" for the weekend. But this strategy — called calorie banking — may actually be training your body to store more fat over time. In this video, Cori breaks down the concept of collateral fattening: why extreme weekday deficits cause muscle loss, slow your metabolism, and amplify hunger cues — so that by the time the weekend hits, you're eating in a much bigger surplus than you realize. And why this cycle gets worse with every dieting attempt. You'll learn: Why the math of calorie banking doesn't actually work out How undereating changes your hunger hormones and cravings What collateral fattening is and why it explains the "getting softer" effect How to build in weekend flexibility without sabotaging your results Why consistency beats restriction for long-term body recomp If you've ever felt like you're eating less but still gaining fat — this is why. — My Book: The STRONG SYSTEM 👉 https://amzn.to/49poH35 👈 The blueprint for lasting change🔥 — Connect with me: IG:   / redefiningstrength   FB:   / redefiningstrength   Pinterest:   / redefiningstrength   Website: https://redefiningstrength.com — Sign up for my newsletter: https://newsletter.redefiningstrength... simple, practical tips to build sustainable results. — Coaching: https://redefiningstrength.com/coachi... — Listen to The Redefining Strength Podcast 🎧 YT: @redefiningstrengthpodcast Apple: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast...
