#283: Is Your Obsession With Clean Eating Holding You Back?

29 May 2025

Description

Alberto, Steve, and Brian discuss what orthorexic behaviors can look like in bodybuilders and how these behaviors can lead to suboptimal progress and a reduced quality of life. What is the coaches’ experience with orthorexia personally and with their athletes? What are some common behaviors the coaches see that are unnecessary and suboptimal? Why do people sometimes still do things they know they don’t need to do? What are some strategies to combat orthorexic behaviors? What are the benefits of having a calorie and protein target instead of a protein, carbohydrate, and fat target? When is a specific behavior or fear a problem? Why is being more precise not always better? The answers to these questions and many more are covered in this episode.
