Can you lose fat and still drink at weekends?
Yes. You can lose fat and still go out at the weekend, as long as the week is planned around it. A night out does not ruin a week. A night out nobody planned for does.
That is the whole idea behind Social Athlete: dinners, drinks and nights out get planned in advance, not apologised for after.
Why a Saturday night usually wrecks the week
Most plans pretend Saturday does not exist. So you go out, go well over, feel guilty, write off Sunday and promise to start again on Monday. Do that every weekend and nothing moves. The drinks were never the problem. The plan just never had a Saturday in it.
How we plan a night out
Start with the Social Day
Going out on Saturday? We use the Social Day System to work out how to treat Monday to Friday, so that when Saturday comes it is pretty much guilt-free, with no excess calories at the end of the week.
Choose your drinks
I suggest which drinks to go for, so you can order at the bar like a normal person and still stay on track.
Adjust earlier in the day
Food earlier in the day gets adjusted to make room for the night, so the day is planned around the night you are actually having.
Use the tools
Clients get the Social Day System, the protein calculator and the Night Out Protocol, so there is a plan for every part of the night, not just the gym.
The morning after
- Get up early.
- Have protein as soon as you can.
- Go for a walk and get some fresh air.
- Treat Sunday like a Monday.
Real people who kept going out
- Odhran drank most weekends and still dropped 5.3kg in 6 weeks, working 12 hour shifts.
- Deaglan kept his social life and dropped 6kg in 6 weeks, working a desk job.
- Rory, a CEO and founder, kept going out and dropped 4kg of fat while gaining 3kg of muscle.
- Me: I eat out, drink with my mates and travel for work, and the gym gets three hours a week. I still get my results.
