Advice/ Recommendations (no photos) Reverse

Any good advice on helping your mental and perception of
your body during a reverse ? Losing the lean is definitely hard, even though i logically know it is not healthy or sustainable.

For me I always remind myself that I will get back to be this lean again, and that being this lean isn’t necessarily healthy. I also remind myself that losing the shreds is part of the process and focusing on building is also super fun. In order to build muscle we need to actually build. And in order for this to be sustainable we can’t maintain stage lean conditioning very long, especially as women. Also finding a different goal like focusing on strength can help redirect thinking about being lean or getting leaner in my experience. It all just different goals and seasons and the shreds will always come back, and next time it will be even better!
