Thanks for stopping by! I had heard this and it was my experience when I tried doing NROLW earlier in the year. My butt and biceps grew, but I didn't lose any fat because I could not get the food under control.
My eating this week has been TERRIBLE. And this is after 2 week of hitting my calorie targets and losing 4lbs before the challenge started.
So, I am not sure what to think. There were a few factors that could have resulted in the bad eating this week, so I am not sure I am ready to place blame on the NROL workouts. I am doing the fat loss program, so maybe I am naive, but I thought that would be doable on a deficit.
I have four days of dance workshops coming up late next week. I haven't determined how I'm going to schedule my workouts this upcoming week to prepare. I can promise I won't survive them if I workout like I did this week. NROL is kicking my butt!
