Calorie Intake, Fitness Goals, and
Our St. Louis Gym

A St. Louis Gym Expert Reports! Most of us already know the magic formula for losing weight: burn more calories than you consume. But what if your goals aren’t to lose weight, but to become a better athlete? And how many calories do you need to consume during the day, anyway? For those just beginning at our St. Louis gym, matching up their caloric intake with their fitness goals can be confusing, and they may under or overcompensate. In this article, we’ll take a closer look at why you need a healthy amount of calories in your diet, why the calories will change depending on your goals, and how you can get help to determine the right amount of calories for you.

Healthy amount of calories

No matter what our fitness goals are, we already know that we need to keep an eye on the amount of calories we consume everyday. We need a healthy amount of calories everyday because this is what gives us the energy to do our everyday tasks and give us fuel for getting to our St. Louis gym. But some forget that we still need a minimum amount of calories everyday in order to be healthy and they try to overcompensate with vastly reducing the number of calories they intake.

Often called crash dieting, this is a dangerous road and many crash dieters may find that they gain the weight back they’ve just lost plus a bonus of a few extra pounds when they resume their former caloric intake. Crash dieters deprive their bodies of important nutrients that the body needs to function and could end up doing more harm than good. On the other end of the scale, athletes that want to “bulk up” and spend lots of time at our St. Louis gym, should be careful with the amount of calories they consume and how they consume them. A larger diet consisting of proteins and carbohydrates will help them much better than simply overeating.

The right caloric intake for your goal

There is no magic number of calories to consume that will help everyone across the board. There are quite a number of things to consider, none the least of which is what your fitness goals are. Certainly those wishing to lose weight should decrease the number of calories they consume, but it is certainly possible to decrease this number too much. The number will change depending on if you are young or old or male or female, but the goal is to find a healthy balance between the amount of calories you intake everyday and the level of exercise you do. This is true if you goal is to become a better weightlifter or long distance runner. The more intense your workout level, the more calories you will need to consume to find the correct balance.

Finding the right balance for you

Those that aren’t sure how many calories they should be consuming in order to reach their fitness goals would do well to consult the advice of a personal trainer at our St. Louis gym. Not only can a personal trainer give you a full assessment of your present fitness level, help you map out your goals and how to reach them, and help you along the way to achieve your goals, a personal trainer can also help give you a guideline to how many calories you should intake over the course of the day that will help you in your quest.
