How Much Deficit Is Too Much
Too much is when muscle loss, sleep collapse, and performance death exceed fat loss benefit.
Protein in a Deficit
Protein is structural insurance. Low protein + high deficit is muscle loss.

Where Deficits Fail
Weekend rebounds. Hidden calories. No tracking.
Coach Angelo’s Assessment
