Iron Impact

All about macros. Should you track them? What are they? What are the benefits of tracking macros? How do I figure out my macros? When should I adjust them?

I get into all these questions and more in this episode of Iron Impact. Macros are my preferred way to help people learn more about the food they’re eating and help them reach their goals.

In this episode Laura King and I talk about what’s wrong with the fitness industry, things that you should be focusing on, and more. With New Years coming, when people are looking to make change in their health and fitness, so many companies and shitty coaches try to take advantage of people, it's important to be able to differentiate between the BS and people who truly want to help. Take a listen and let me know what you think!

You can’t expect the results from the work you didn’t do. So many people say they want something, but are unwilling to make the sacrifices and shift their priorities and actually do the things they need to do in order to reach their goals.

In episode 13 I give you a little bit of a reality check that not everyone is ready to hear.

Macros and energy balance

Understanding both sides of the equation are important when it comes to making progress towards your goal

Most people pay too much attention to one side, but forget the other. It’s not just about the right macros and calories you’re consuming, but it is about what your body needs to train, recover, and reach your goals.

There is more to consider than just calories in and calories out

In episode 12 of the Iron Impact Podcast, I break it all down for you

Biofeedback- what is it and why does it matter?

Your body is sending you messages, how it responds or doesn't respond can be a sign.  In episode 10 I go deeper into some of the things you can measure and pay attention to, to get real time feedback as to how your body is is doing. At the end of the day your body cares about survival, not about your goals, so learn to work with it, not against it.

It depends. One of the most frustrating answers to hear, but the most truthful ones. Everything you do is for a reason, and everything you do depends on everything else you're doing.

Context matters when it comes to your macros, training, cardio, and what you should be doing, how you do it and why you do it.
