Have you stopped learning about how you train and eat? Stopped learning about yourself? Fitness and nutrition are elements that should be progressive. Ever evolving is the prospect of getting into top shape. If you are satisfied with your physique and health, then rest assure you train to a level of mere satisfaction. Accordingly, your body will respond. Training to maintain is training that is ultimately destructive. A training regimen that is structured for constant improvement is an approach that will be fruitful for a lifetime. There is no doubt that the body requires periodic rest and recovery. But if you reach the "finish line" of your level of fitness, then you will fine that you have lost the race. By the same token, progression does not have to come by leaps and bounds. One step, one rep is improvement.
When you feel that your diet is as clean as it can get, continue to research and learn ways to make it better. A colleague of mine shared the knowledge regarding the determination of the nutritional value of whole grains, by considering the fiber content. Even is "healthy" food items there can be a less than desirable ratio of fiber to carbohydrate content. So, to figure out the nutritional value of a carbohydrate here is the quick calculation. Take the number of grams of carbohydrates in food item and divide it by the number of grams of fiber in the item. If the result is 10 or greater, then the food item exceeds the desirable ratio. If the item is 9 or less then it is in the healthy ratio.
Continue to learn and your health and fitness is guaranteed to improve.
