Ep. 234: Simplifying Nutrition (Building Your Foundation) Jan 18, 2019

Show notes

When it comes to successfully following a nutrition plan, the first step is building a solid foundation. I’m talking understanding the what, why and how of real nutrition, self-awareness of whole foods and biofeedback, having some intuitiveness inside your decisions, and really just WANTING to eat well vs. feeling like it’s a chore.

And today, I’m going to break down what that looks like in its most simplistic form.

Ep. 230: Q&A - Getting Skinny Fat, Plateau Breaking Strategies, My Favorite Musician, and More... Jan 04, 2019

Show notes

Friday Q&A Session!! It's been about 3 weeks since I've done one and as you'll hear in today's episode, I was fired up to be back on the mic answering YOUR questions.

Mentioned in the show:

- Functional Muscle

- The Boom Boom Elite

QUESTIONS:

- If you are following a 4-day upper/lower split like Functional Muscle but your schedule only allows for 3 days that week what do you do?

- Where do you draw the line on safely adding weight when you’re working around old injuries? (Double hernia a few years back). Do you recommend staying around 85% 1RM & work on adding reps/sets vs. adding weight? Are there any negatives with not continually adding weight to your lifts. I’m currently squatting 225 & BB deadlifting 275. Thanks!

- Any advice for cutting body fat/weight (it's been a stressful couple months) pre ACL surgery?

- If we’re supposed to have 1g per lb. of protein, how much of that does our body absorb?

- Weight loss plateaus… what to do?

- Long term sustainable weight loss vs. fast cutting weight loss?

- Can under eating for your training result in “skinny fat”?

- How do I know if I am on a maintenance cal or my metabolism just slowed down?

Ep. 229: Justin Murphy - "Redefining Yourself" Jan 01, 2019

Show notes

NEW YEARS SPECIAL!!! Link below!

https://boomboom.securechkout.com/elite-pif

-----

My good friend Justin Murphy, owner of iCoach Nutrition, stops by to talk shop with me and share his story. Justin had a great childhood but eventually was steered down the wrong path, which lead to drugs, partying, and eventually even being locked up in jail for a short period of time. But he also shifted back and changed his life, for the better, to become one of the most positive people I know - as well as compete in CrossFit, coach hundreds of others, and run a successful coaching business.
