Episode 168: What to eat before and after training Mar 03, 2023

Show notes

The meal after you train gets alotta of focus. She’s called the magic window and she gets the spotlight. But. What’s more important than the magic window is how you fuel yourself over the entire day.

If you are consistently feeding your body protein over the day, and at adequate amounts, that has a much more profound effect than hyper-focusing on one meal.

In today’s episode, I talk about how to fuel well over the entire day. I also share key targets that you need to hit to fuel well before and after training and the importance of the magic window.

WHAT YOU WILL DISCOVER

> The best way to figure out how much you need to eat > Where to start when it comes to fuelling well > The key foundations you need to nail before you focus on before and after fuelling > What the magic window is and why it’s important > What and when to eat before training > What and when to eat after training > Eating before and after training for the early morning Warrior > Examples of meals that work well for me before and after training

Show notes

Show notes

I talk to my dear friend and biz coach Ruby Marsh in this episode. I wanted to put Ruby in the hot seat to talk about building your character (AKA finding your personal brand, but on steroids). Ruby talks about how she discovered this idea of ‘seeing yourself as the main character’ and how building a character allows a deeper story and connection to ourselves. We talk about character design, style, fashion, and photoshoots.
