Fit Chit Chat

Peptides are everywhere right now - from muscle growth and fat loss to anti-ageing, recovery and claims of “biohacking” your body. But is it safe and how much of it is actually backed by science? 

In this episode, we sit down with Aaron Scafi aka Elite Strength Coach to break down what peptides actually are, popular ones being used in the fitness and wellness world, what they can realistically do, and where the hype starts to outweigh the evidence. We’ll also tackle safety, side effects, legality, sourcing and whether peptides have a legitimate place in health and performance. 

Let's go!

WE ARE BACK BABY! 🎙️ The Fit Chit Chat has been on a little hiatus so I thought we would get the ball rolling again with a little Q&A episode. Be sure to give this one a listen if you want hear more on these 👇🏻

1.Is it better to count calories or macros to lose weight?

2.The different phases of the menstrual cycle and what’s happening during them e.g. energy etc.

3.Is 2 training sessions enough to see results? Some weeks I can do up to 4 but mostly 2?

4.Is taking creatine/creatine monohydrate necessary for women’s physical health?

5.I want to lose body fat and gain muscle but not sure what to do first? Scared to be in a surplus.

6.If I'm short on time with a training session and don't want to rush, do I cut down my reps/sets?

When Kate first started she felt like her progress had stalled, she was managing a couple of injuries, her mental health had started to affect her training consistency and had no idea what she was doing with nutrition. After a short year Kate now easily gets through a full day at her physical job pain free, enjoys flexibility and autonomy with her food, her sister describes her as glowing and confident, and she just got married in a backless dress to show off her gains. I can’t wait for you to hear her story. You’re also going to get an insight into what it’s like to be a client and discover exactly what’s possible for you too. Let’s go!
