Understanding Nutrition

-

 


Ok guys. I see lots of you are still struggling with nutrition and you guys actually have no clue what you putting into your mouth.

I am going to make it easy for you... Hopefully this will give you an understanding of how things work and how food fuels your body.

So imagine the food you eat as buidling a house. (Your body is the house). 

  • Carbs are the workers - It creates energy to get the work done.
  • Fats are the tools - makes things easier and run smoothly.
  • Protein are the bricks - Protein becomes the house. Without the bricks you can never build a strong house.
You need all 3 of the macros and you need to get the balance right. I see that most of you eat way too little protein and thats why your body is not very strong and covered in fat.

Nutrition is key and you need to focus on eating properly. I promise you will look and feel better.

I can help you with your macro targets. I can also educate you even more.

Building the ultimate lean, strong and healthy body

Building the ultimate lean, strong and healthy body. Ok, so all of you train with me and that's fantastic - you have the best PT :-) But today I am going to share a few things that will help you become stronger, fitter and healthier - without going to gym. 1. Sleep - This is one of the most important things you can do - ensure you get 7 to 9 hours of sleep every night. I am not going in too much detail but this is when your body "heals" itself mentally and physically so if you sleep better you will perform better (mentally and physically). 2. Count your damn calories - download a calorie counter app on your phone because most of you have no clue how much calories/macros you are eating. And unfortunately for you getting the right amount of calories (calorie deficit or surplus, and the right amount of macros) are absolutely vital to your weightloss /muscle building goals, losing fat goals. 3. Increase your protein intake (protein is one the macros btw)- once again you wi...

Body composition

Body composition I often walk around the gym talking about "body composition" and individuals have no clue what it means... Individuals will often tell me they want to lose fat, build muscle etc... Then I say ah yes! You want to change your body composition....  OK body composition refers to the amount or percentage of fat, muscle and bone your body consists of. So in my case (being a PT) I help people change their body composition. I help people lose fat and build muscle.  By now you should hopefully know how that's done. If you don't.. Let me quickly tell you.....  Strength training and protein intake builds muscle.  More muscle = less fat (that's how the body works)  More muscle and less fat = lean/strong body So what I really want you to focus on is improving your body composition. Focus on getting stronger (strength training/progressive overload)  Eat enough protein to help repair and build those muscles  Stick to your calorie/macro targets daily....

Strength training

  Strength training Forget all the rubbish you have read or seen on social media and in magazines - when it comes to training, strength training is king! Don't get me wrong, I am not knocking all the other forms of exercise and training BUT I feel that everyone needs to start with strength training. Nothing fancy - just good old strength training. That should be the foundation for everyoney Why.....  It's pretty simple… just like many things in life, if the foundation is not set (weak) everything else will not work nicely. That principle applies to training. People want to go do functional training classes, run a marathon, do the ironman etc but the foundation is not in place and now the individual can't perform the exercises properly, they get injured, they can't finish to name a few. How does strength training work….. Strength training and progressive overload go hand in hand. To get stronger you need to challenge the muscles and that can be done by progressive overlo...
