In this episode, Coach Luke and Geoff discuss the effects of alcohol after Geoff says he is thinking about ditching alcohol. The guys also discuss visualization and whether it should be a part of your regimen and how it can impact your mindset and confidence.

The GreenStrength Podcast returns after a little break. Coach Luke fills everyone in on some changes to the GreenStrength program in the gym and some new additions for GreenStrength members. We talk about consistency and how that is a key component no matter where you are in your journey and how it applies to both nutrition and exercise. We also sprinkle in a little jiujitsu talk with ADCC coming right around the corner.

This week the GreenStrength Podcast crew does a complete walkthrough on how to calculate your caloric needs and how you can play with your macro nutrients to fit your lifestyle and your desired diet approach. After listening to this episode, you will be fully equipped to take your nutrition into your own hands, understand the variables in meeting your nutrition needs, and tweaking your diet along the way to keep you on the right path.
