Today Big Coach Afro shares the importance of nutrition. 99% of people massively underestimate the importance of good nutrition and take it for granted.
Fast food or 'easier' option are too readily available and people are always in such a rush that they never slow down and think what are they actually putting into their bodies.
It is a simple equation.
Eat Crap = Feel Like Crap.
As a Certified Personal Trainer and Nutritionist I see this everyday. Here are 3 reasons why Nutrition is important:
1. It gives you the energy to handle more, we all have desires for a treat every now and then. Think back when you wanted a takeaway, the chances after devouring it you felt tired, lethargic, sluggish, grouchy etc.
This way of eating does not support 'doing more'.
If you feel tired all the time, it is time to take a good hard look at your nutrition.
2. Keeps your health in check, an odd biscuit here or it is fine but if it's every day it adds up. 1 and a half biscuits a day = 100 calories extra a day = 10 lbs weight gain over a year.
When you eat like crap every day all day, the compounding effect is disastrous. It might not feel like it today but in 5, 10, 20, 30 years it will lead to things like high blood pressure, high cholesterol, type 2 diabetes, chronic joint pain, the list goes on.
Write down what you ate yesterday on a piece of paper and circle all the good foods you ate and see for yourself. If you are unsure what good food looks like then download our Ultimate Fat Loss Pack, https://bigcoachlittlecoach.com/free-but-awesome/
3. Sets a good example for other people, kids, partners, family members and friends. The biggest one for me is kids. I heard a mother once say to her child that diet coke was not good for you but seconds later she would drink diet coke. Her reasoning was 'it's mummy's drink'.
Her words clearly did not match up to her actions.
Be the example that you want to see.
