Antomaga it sounds like you might need a program that is more intense and will challenge you. Try Insanity Max 30, P90X3 or Asylum

Coach Sean Antomaga Yes, that’s what I currently eat, but havent seen weight loss AT ALL. Do you recommend a different beachbody workout? I have tried 21 day fix, 21 day fix extreme, Pump, and even t-25.

Antomaga 2845 is way to high for you and your goals. at 5’4″ 145lbs you should be closer to 1400-1500 caloriies

Hi-
I just tried to determine my level and it seems I should be consuming way more than I do now. (2845?!) I know I messed up somewhere.
I’m 145lb, 5’4″ female with a lot of stomach fat. I’m at 25.1% body fat comp 102 muscle mass.
I’m looking to lose 15 pounds and when I’ve done any type of beachbody workout or Jillian michaels, 30 minutes burns 150 calories. I do abt 45 min exercise daily and average 350 calories. It takes 15 minutes to get my HR up and to maintain for a sweat session.
I am open to new suggestions.
Thanks

Hey sean I tried contacting you via Facebook but you never got back to me the first time. I am entering the second phase, chest back tris and so on, of the classic. So should I add more calories so I’m on a calorie surplus like you did or where should I go from here?

Hi coach,
So I’m in my 3rd week of p90x. I’ve been doing well as far as nutrition. I used the math you’ve provided, and calculated if I want to lose weight specially around the stomach area (I am 5’1 105.6lbs fairly athletic) that my daily calorie intake should be about 1,311.6 using the (50-30-20) would mean 163.95g protein, 98.37g carbs, and 29g of fat. Now I know that I have a smaller frame, but is my calculation correct? I feel like it’s too small. I’ve been feeling like I have less energy lately not like my first two weeks. Am I on the right path? And this last question might sound stupid but I’m doing the portion approach, so we also count the amount of carbs/protein/and fat on the other foods we’re in taking, correct?
Hope to hear from you soon. Thank you!
