It’s the calories you burn through daily movement — not “workouts”.
Why it matters:
- In a deficit your body often moves less without you noticing.
- A 2,000–4,000 step difference can add up big over time.
Simple plan:
1) Measure your 7-day step average.
2) Add +1,500 steps/day.
3) Re-check after 10–14 days (trend, waist, scale average).
Low-stress ideas:
- two 10-minute walks after meals
- walk during calls
- short movement breaks every 60–90 minutes
Remember:
If training stays the same but daily movement drops, your deficit can quietly disappear.
