When you first open RP Diet Coach, you'll pick one of three goals.
| Choose | If you… |
|---|---|
| Fat loss | Want to lose body fat and haven't just finished a diet. Also choose this if you want to lose fat and build muscle at the same time. |
| Muscle gain | Are fairly lean and ready to gain weight slowly to build muscle, accepting some fat gain along the way. |
| Maintenance | Just finished a fat loss or muscle gain phase, whether in the app or on your own, and want to hold your new weight before the next phase. |
Just came off a diet? Start with maintenance, even if your next goal is more fat loss. Going straight from one fat loss phase into another makes long-term success much harder. Plan for maintenance to last about 2/3 as long as the diet you just finished.
