On this week’s episode of The Coaches Roundtable, we’re bringing you another Q&A Podcast!

In this episode, we answered the following questions:
Why are so many coaches against meal plans?

Karina M: Top recommendations for fitness and nutrition books?

Karen M: How to get your mindset right for when there are goodies out? (Ex. going to the movies, birthday party, family cookout, etc.) and not over do it.

Christine G: How to exercise self-control better when being on steroids. The reason is because I got that injection in my hand 2 weeks ago and yet I’m still wanting junk and the scale is creeping up again. I’m not trying to use that as an excuse but I think I was eating better before the injection.

Amy M: How to know when to switch up a weight routine?

Amy M: How to decide how to split weight routine?

Amy M: Does order of exercises matter?

August 07, 2023Ep. 134 Coaches Roundtable Q&A - Toning Muscles, Motivation, Too Much Protein, Finding Your Floor, and Awareness Week Fears
On this week’s episode of The Coaches Roundtable, we’re bringing you another Q&A Podcast!

In this episode, we answered the following questions:
I’ve been gaining weight in my thighs and glutes, is cardio the only thing that helps tone?

How do you stay motivated, I feel like I can never get the motivation to get started

Is there such a thing as too much protein as long as you are lifting and/or working out? I know that when you have too much protein and don't move, it can lead to weight gain. But then again, if you have too much of anything and don't move, it can lead to weight gain.

What to do when life is throwing everything at you all at once and it’s hard to stay focused on your journey?

Awareness week "fears"

July 24, 2023Ep. 131 Coaches Roundtable Q&A - Insulin Resistance, Body Types, The Biggest Loser, Tracking Zero Calories Foods, & When to Change Calories
On this week’s episode of The Coaches Roundtable, we’re bringing you another Q&A Podcast!

In this episode, we answered the following questions:
Heidi M: How does nutrition affect insulin resistance?

Pamela W: Let's touch on VShred a bit. This guy talks about the three body types, ectomorph, endomorph and mesomorph. Is there any truth behind the type of body you have dictating how easily (or not) one loses weight?

Amy M: It was found after the show The Biggest Loser, many if not most of the contestants had a metabolism that was much lower than a regular person of the same weight. Do you think this was from the extreme dieting,or because they had lower than average metabolisms to begin with!

I haven’t been tracking mustard because it’s 0cals but realized sometimes if you have a couple servings it can have some calories. Should I be tracking that? Also what about gum?

When do you know you need to change the amount of calories your consuming after losing some weight - Tarsha
