    Rapid Fire Q&A Part 1: Meal Frequency, Muscle Gain, Reverse Dieting, & Metabolic Adaptation with Kara Goss | Ep 133

    Today's episode is Part 1 of a Q&A interview I did on The Not Your Quick Fix Podcast with my good friend Kara Goss.

    In this episode we dive into whether or not you need to eat smaller, more frequent meals to "boost" your metabolism, what is a realistic amount of muscle to gain per year, why do some people lose weight when they increase their calories through reverse dieting, and how metabolic phenotypes can affect how your body responds to fat loss phases.

    How To Reverse & Prevent Metabolic Adaptation For Better Fat Loss | Ep 132

    How To Reverse & Prevent Metabolic Adaptation For Better Fat Loss | Ep 132

    Today's episode is a continuation of Episode 130, where I initially talked about how doing low calorie or extreme diets can actually make us GAIN body fat in the long run, and cause us to deal with negative symptoms of such as our metabolism slowing down, poor sleep, worse mood, extreme hunger, etc - AKA metabolic adaptation.

    In today's episode, I'm diving into how you can reverse these symptoms of metabolic adaptation if you're currently experiencing them, as well as how to approach your fat loss phases to prevent them from occurring in the first place.

    How Jackie Lost 50 Pounds WITHOUT Extreme Dieting, Excessive Cardio, Or Having To Give Up Taco Bell | Ep 131

    In this episode I sit down with one of my incredible 1:1 clients, Jackie Swisher, and talk about her journey over the past 10 months of losing 50 pounds.

    We talk about how she was able to lose weight this time without feeling stricter, without having to do tons of high intensity cardio, and without having to give up her favorite foods - even Taco Bell.

    We also dive into some misconceptions and fear she had before starting her journey, and how overcoming that and taking the leap anyway unlocked a whole new version of herself for the better.

    How Yo-Yo Dieting Makes You "Fatter" | Ep 130

    You've probably heard that crash diets or extremely restrictive diets are bad for long term progress.

    But did you know that not only do you often gain the weight back from them, but they also make us gain MORE fat back in the long run.

    In this episode I'm taking a deep dive into the psychological and physiological reasons as to why this happens, and why every time you diet and gain the weight back you're digging yourself into a deeper whole to pull yourself out of.

    Building Muscle As A Woman, Battling The Scale, & Accepting Potential Weight Gain with Paige Myers | Ep 129

    Building Muscle As A Woman, Battling The Scale, & Accepting Potential Weight Gain with Paige Myers | Ep 129

    In this week's episode I sit down with my good friend and fellow Registered Dietitian Paige Myers. 

    In this episode we dive into Paige's journey over recent years of intentionally gaining 30 pounds in order to continuing to build the body she wants. 

    We dive into how quickly you should be seeing weight gain on the scale if you're intentionally trying to build muscle, the mental battles of accepting a higher number on the scale especially if you're a woman, and how she approached this building phase of her journey to minimize fat gain and maximize muscle gain.

    We also dive into the misconceptions around women eating more, lifting heavy, and how it actually can change your body composition for the better if you're searching for that lean, toned look and shape.

    INSTEAD of Motivation Or Discipline, Use THIS To Keep You Going | Ep 128

    INSTEAD of Motivation Or Discipline, Use THIS To Keep You Going | Ep 128

    Everyone is always looking for tips on "how to stay motivated" in their weight loss or fitness journeys.

    In response to that, you've probably heard fitness influencers telling you that instead of relying on motivation, use "discipline" instead.

    Well in this episode, I'm going to talk about something else that can get you through those rough times when going to the gym or following your nutrition plan feels like the last thing you want to do.

    And in my opinion, it's MUCH more powerful than motivation or discipline in the long run. Enjoy.
