Episode notes
Postpartum Recomp Start At Maintenance
- Do start postpartum recomposition at maintenance calories when breastfeeding to protect milk supply.
- Jordan recommends maintenance as the default, then adjust upward if milk supply drops or hunger is unsustainable.
Recomposition Is A Long Term Play
- Recomposition is a long-term approach distinct from pure fat loss or muscle gain.
- Jordan frames recomp as many months or years, not a 2–3 month quick phase.
Get Specialist Guidance For Perinatal Calories
- Do not rely on a one-size calorie add; consult a perinatal specialist for pregnancy/postpartum calorie targets.
- Jordan avoids fixed percentage rules and cites Merrick/experts for individualized guidance.
