  • #197: 3 Muscle Building Priorities Revealed - Sports Dietitian Answers

    Alongside fat loss, muscle building is one of the most popular goals in the health and fitness space. Many times dieters will even want to achieve both.

    So it is no surprise that “how to build muscle” is a very common query I get as a Sports Dietitian.

    To achieve muscle gain, you need to focus on the right things, done in the right way, and for the right duration of time. It is about strategy and nutrition is a fundamental pillar of successful muscle mass gaining. 

    In this episode, I share the 3 priorities (or pillars) of successful muscle building that you need to know if you want to optimize muscle protein synthesis.

  • #195: The Truth About Pre-Made Meals - Are they good or bad for you?

    In an increasingly busy world, the reliance (or desire) for convenience in our food supply grows too. We are all more busy than ever so it is no surprise alot of people look to easy options when it comes to their nutrition.

    With this has come the emergence and growing popularity of pre-made meal options. From fresh to frozen varieties, it is no secret that “heat and eat” nutrition is becoming more normal among busy professionals and athletes.

    Are these pre-made meals good or bad for us? That is the question many people are asking now. 

    In this episode, I answer this question so that you can know the truth about pre-made meals and decide if they are a good choice to improve your nutrition….or not.

    I want to change that by teaching you about 5 categories of protein foods that you can literally "plug n play" right now to improve your diet. 

    In this episode, I share the 5 types of protein you should be eating if you want to achieve more fat loss, build more muscle, and improve your performance.

  • #192: Rapid vs. Steady Fat Loss: Which Is Better?

    For as long as fat loss has been the dominant goal in the nutrition and health space, so too has the question been asked: should I lose weight slowly or quickly?

    The debate around rapid vs steady fat loss continues and it is one that you need to be aware of and understand better in order to approach your diet more effectively and safely. 

    So…which one is in fact better to do? Should you try and rapidly shed the weight? Or is a more slow and steady approach the better way to go about it?

    Honestly, there is no clear-cut/definitive answer to this, unfortunately (at least not via a poddy). However, I will share the considerations, the science, and the practical implementation to help provide perspective and share my own take on this as a Dietitian and Nutritionist. 

    In this episode, I explore the reality of rapid vs steady fat loss to provide you with more direction and clarity for your own goal.

  • #190: Meal Prep vs. Exercise: Which Is More Important For Fat Loss?

    A long-standing question around the fat loss space has been: which is more important, nutrition or exercise when it comes to getting results?

    In order to make it more contextual and practical, let’s phrase this as: is meal prep or going to the gym more important (and impactful) for fat loss success?

    The answer is more simple than you may think but it is also perhaps more surprising than you expected. Especially when I tell you the specifics around this topic of discussion. 

    In this episode, I deep dive into the importance of meal prep vs. exercise for weight loss.

  • #189: Time Restricted Eating vs. Calorie Control: What Is Better For Weight Loss?

    There is so many fat loss diets out there. Countless “dieting tips” that will help you “shred your body to 6 pack abs”. 

    Different approaches to weight loss that all have some who swear by it and promote it like it’s the be all, end all. 

    So it is no surprise that many people wonder if time restricted eating is better than classic calorie control dietary approaches.

    Which is better? Do both lead to fat loss? Which one leads to more weight loss?

    As a Dietitian and Nutritionist, I have worked with countless clients seeking the sweet nectar of fat loss success and I know a thing or two about the science and the actions needed to achieve weight loss success.

    In this episode, I quite simply answer the question: Which is better for fat loss…time restricted eating (aka Intermittent Fasting) or calorie counting controlled dieting?

  • #188: The BLT Conundrum: Impact of Bites, Licks, and Tastes

    So many wrongfully assume sandwiches cause weight gain and can’t be consumed on a fat-loss diet. Sandwiches can fit a weight loss plan easily.

    However, there is one “sandwich” that could be getting in your way though…the BLT.

    No, I do not mean the Bacon, Lettuce, Tomato sandwich classic.

    I mean the other BLT: Bites, Lick, Tastes.

    This thing might be causing your calories to be inaccurate. It may be the reason you are not progressing. It might very well be the secret obstacle you never suspected.

    What am I talking about exactly? 

    In this episode, I show you why you need to be watching your BLT’s if you want to succeed with fat loss (or if you are stuck and need to get moving again).
