#113 - Why your nutrition should be cyclical with Craig McDonald

Uncategorized May 03, 2022

Most of the women who join our program have cycled through a number of diets that drastically cut calories and/or food groups. I did the same thing for years but when I met Craig and Emma I learnt why this approach never works long term, often leads to more weight gain and it usually leaves women with one or more of these issues: low energy, poor sleep, digestive issues or hormonal imbalances.

I was listening to a coaching call Craig did a few weeks ago and one of the clients asked about the 'phases' they get allocated by their coach and why we do this and what phase is appropriate when?

So I thought it would be a great opportunity to get Craig on the podcast to discuss the cycles and phases of nutrition and when they are appropriate.

In this episode, we chat about:

➡️What the nutrition phases are and when they are appropriate

➡️Healthy body fat ranges

➡️How nutrition contributes to muscle growth

➡️When is a calorie surplus appropriate?

➡️How th...

#112 - Why quick fix diets & a tonne of cardio will never get you the body or health you want with Stan Efferding

Uncategorized May 01, 2022

SOOOOOOOOOOOO exciting to have had Stan on the podcast.

We love big Stan and not just because he's the world's strongest bodybuilder and the creator or the cooler 🤣 Craig did his best Stan impersonation on the podcast....nearly as good as the real thing!

Big Stan has been training women for bodybuilding comps since 1989 so he knows a thing or two about getting strong and getting lean.

He's also the creator of the Vertical diet, which like our approach is built on a foundation of bioavailable nutrients to optimise the metabolism and digestion 👊 while helping people build healthy lifestyles and sustainable habits.

Like Craig and I, Stan is also passionate about helping people before they experience tragic health issues due to restrictive dieting, so it was awesome to get him on the podcast to go over all of this. In this episode, we discuss:

➡️Why carbs, such as fruit and potatoes, are important

➡️Why the only way to change your body is by building muscle
