In today's episode, recorded in our bright and airy new studio, we unpack the essentials of training for optimal body composition and how to fuel your body to maximize training performance. 🏋️‍♀️💡I share my journey from fasted workouts to understanding the crucial role of adequate nutrition in building a strong, toned and healthy body, not destroying it with harsh diets and exhaustive cardio. 🥗➡️💪Craig breaks down the physiology behind training and nutrition, emphasizing the importance of weight training when it comes to increasing muscle mass and consequently boosting basal metabolic rate (BMR). 📈🔬We discusses practical tips for pre-workout nutrition, highlighting the need for a balance of protein, carbs, and healthy sugars to fuel your sessions and support muscle growth. 🍳🍌🥛Key takeaways include shifting the focus from calorie burning to muscle building for a stronger, healthier body and the metabolic benefits of having more muscle mass, especially for women navigating menopause. 🚺💖This episode is a must-listen for anyone looking to transform their approach to fitness and nutrition.
