The Fundamentals of Nutrition:
Nutrition is the prcess of taking in food and using it for growth, metabolism, and repair; metabolism is the body's process of converting food into energy. Think of metabolisim with this simple model:
Calories in versus Calories out.
Calories in = (How much you eat)
Calories out = (Metabolic rate) + (Exercise, work, play etc.)
When you eat any food there are two main groups of nutrients that your are consuming:
1. Macronutrients: Fats, Carbohydrates, & Protein
2. Micronutrients: Vitamins, minerals, fiber, B2, iron, zinc, magnesium, sodium etc...
To achieve your fitness goals you must make nutrition your main priority. Properly structruing your diet, training regiment, and lifestyle with your fitness goals will improve your energy levels, mood, and overall mindset.
I will teach you what foods have a good ratio of fats/carbs/proteins as well as what foods you should eat that are high in micronutrients to actually synthesize the nutrients for performance
two successful ways to myself and clients use to lose fat
Practice Intermittent Fasting
Intermittent fasting involves limiting your daily food intake to an 8-hour window. If you skip breakfast, for instance, your first meal would be at noon and your last meal would be at 8 p.m. This approach has several benefits, including improved metabolic and organ repair, as well as increased mental clarity before your first meal. However, individuals with diabetes or insulin resistance should consult their physician before embarking on this lifestyle change.
Tracking Macronutrients
Did you know that there are three main macronutrients: fats, carbohydrates, and protein? If you're looking to track your food intake accurately, consider using a food scale. Alternatively, you can use measuring cups or apps like "myfitnesspal" to scan barcodes. To successfully make a lifestyle change, focus on portion control and increasing your intake of protein and fiber. Men should aim for 1 gram of protein per goal body weight, while women should aim for at least 0.6 grams of protein per goal body weight. For example, if you're a male weighing 150 lbs and aiming for 175 lbs, you should aim for 175 grams of protein daily. If you're a female weighing 175 lbs and aiming for 140 lbs, your goal should be to eat 84 grams of protein per day.
