Episode 291 - Protein Requirements as We Age!
September 26, 2023 11:00 - 9 minutes - 8.42 MBThis week I discuss the importance of prioritizing protein and building strength as we age. The recommended daily allowance of protein is only 0.8 grams per kilogram of body weight. This is insufficient to maintain and build muscle mass.

August 29, 2023 11:00 - 12 minutes - 11.2 MBThis week I touch on the importance of looking at your nutrition from the lense of prioritizing nutrient dense foods as opposed to a certain diet. Marty Kendall from Optimizing Nutrition has a great quote - “Your diet doesn’t need a name or belief system, just enough nutrients.” I think this can help free you up when it comes to nutrition because it doesn't put any parameters around following a specific diet. (which doesn't work for most people). Start by logging your food in Chronometer ...

Episode 275 - Get Ready For A Challenging Workout: Single or Multiple Sets?
August 01, 2023 11:00 - 9 minutes - 8.62 MBThis week I discuss some of the differences between single vs. multiple sets and how it all depends on your time, fitness level and strength training goals.
