One of the things I’ve discovered most, in my 5 years as a PT, is that people work really hard when it comes to gym and classes, but often don’t understand and or severely underestimate the importance of nutrition in meeting their body composition goals, whether it be fat loss or muscle gain. Without this critical knowledge people often plateau, burn out and get defeated not achieving these goals, despite great physical effort.
Here are a few quick tips in terms of how you should eat:
- Start with a foundation of low starch, high fibre vegetables with different colours
- Add in quality proteins from wild or properly raised conditions
- Utilise high quality fats as a primary energy source and as a way to enhance nutrient absorption from other foods in the form of good oils
- Avoid any high starch or high sugar foods when not eating to fuel exercise
