In this episode we break down the importance of maintaining muscle, the role of mechanical tension, and strategies to manage hunger while in a calorie deficit.

🌟 Strategies for Maintaining Muscle During Fat Loss:

We discuss how crucial it is to maintain muscle while in a calorie deficit. Craig explains why your training approach needs to change from a muscle gain phase to a fat loss phase, focusing on sending the right signals to your body.

A few weeks ago I had Mike Fave on the podcast. Mike is an independent researcher with a wealth of knowledge on diet and metabolic health. I first met him on a podcast with Danny Roddy and Jay Feldman and just thought he was a great guy 👏

In this podcast we dive deep into a topic that's often misunderstood: sugar, juice and fruit. Many women in our program come from restrictive dieting backgrounds, cutting out sugar completely, fearing it like it's the devil. They even equate a glass of orange juice to a can of soft drinks.

Mike helps us break down these misconceptions.

He shares his journey through various diets, from bodybuilding to keto, and how he now focuses on reading research directly. His experience as a nurse, especially during COVID, and his work in health consulting gives him a unique perspective.

We discuss how sugar, particularly fructose, has been unfairly demonised. Mike explains that sugar is a vital fuel source, and the real issue lies in what sugar is often pac...

This week I'm so excited to share an inspiring story from one of our amazing clients, Katrina. She's a mum of three who has not only shed 30 pounds but has also transformed her entire life! 💃🌞 From struggling with post-pregnancy weight and discomfort, Katrina has revolutionized her lifestyle with some guidance from our program.

I've seen her transition from an office job to her dream of working remotely, which means more quality time with her kids and enjoying sunny breaks. Her secrets?

Moving away from traditional diets to focusing on what truly nourishes her body, adding weight training, and embracing a mindset shift that’s all about positivity. 🥗💪

Her journey has been about much more than physical transformation; it’s about gaining confidence, grabbing life’s opportunities, and even starting her own dance program!

Back in my crazy diet days I used to take a tonne of fish oil and eat flaxseed oil with my tuna and green beans every day for morning tea.

Ever wonder about the real story behind fish oil? 🐟💊 Today on the Podcast, we've brought back our wonderful friend Bryan Thomas from Performance Neuro to unpack the myths and truths about fish oil supplements that many of us believe are health boosters.

Did you know that fish oil started as a waste product in fish hatcheries and was almost considered a pollutant?

Through clever marketing, it's been sold as a must-have for health, but here's the twist: it might not be as beneficial as we think!

Bryan sheds light on how fish oil can actually suppress immune function, which might mask symptoms without truly healing us.
