Listen Later

Nutrition seems like it should be so easy, so why is it a struggle for so many?  The secret lies in where you're focusing your attention. When you're focusing on the scale and solely weight loss you're missing out on forming the habits, behavior and thought process needed to think, behave and become the person with the fit lean physique you desire.  Adam Ross is a registered dietitian, and sports nutritionist with a unique background as a division 1 and professional hockey player.  Within his own businees as well as serving as the head dietitian at Atria Institute for Health and Longevity in New York City Adam has worked with celebrities, professional athletes, business professionals and everyday folks motivated for transformation. In this episode of The Health Fix Podcast Dr. Jannine Krause interviews Adam Ross on personalizing your nutrition to your age, adjusting macros for varied activity levels and the power of creating structured habits, routines and environments that promote success over time versus being tied to the scale to measure progress.

What You'll Learn In This Episode:

  • Why having carbs is necessary if you're more active and getting your heart rate up
  • How to fill the gaps in nutrition with fats 
  • Why less activity requres you to eat more fat and less carbs
  • Thinking of calories and protein as the king and queen of macros
  • Why it’s important to adjust your diet over time when you find things aren’t working
  • How habits, routines and behaviors need to match the person you’re working to become to yield the body composition you desire
