25.01.2022 In this video, Sasha talks about the difference between healthy eating and eating for results. Take a look! #healthyeating #dietandnutrition #diet #nutrition

24.01.2022 We all know how important it is to remain hydrated so, in this video, Sasha provides an overview of the signs of dehydration and what you can do to prevent it. #fluidintake #hydration #personaltraining

24.01.2022 We've been put into stage 4 lockdown and now things are even more strict when it comes to our day to day movements. So staying positive is so important while we focus on what we CAN DO. Watch this video for some suggestions from Sasha on what you can do to maintain your fitness and overall wellbeing. ... #pandemic #covid19 #restrictions

24.01.2022 Start 2021 with a fresh and healthy start! Watch this video to find out how.

23.01.2022 Check out week 12 of our muscle building tips: 1 Stay hydrated by aiming for 2-3L of water per day. Dehydration leads to a drop in strength and performance, and will impact your ability to gain muscle. 2 Consume adequate fibre. Fruits and vegetables are still important for gaining muscle. A healthy body is an anabolic body!... 3 Cut the alcohol. Alcohol leads to a drop in testosterone levels and wont do your muscle building efforts any favours. 4 Limit stimulants. Overconsumption leads to an increase in the stress hormone cortisol which is great before your workout but not so great when your body is trying to rest and recover (when muscle building actually takes place.) 5Try supplementing with creatine. Its one of the only scientifically-proven supplements to actually aid in the increase of strength and muscle mass. #muscle #healthandfitness #exercise

23.01.2022 Now that restrictions have eased even more, make sure you check out our recent blog article to learn more about how you can incorporate walking and other activities into your day. To learn more, visit: https://beyondbest.com.au//walk-your-way-to-a-lean-health/

21.01.2022 Meet Chris, this months featured client! At first, I considered Chris’ initial goals to be less ambitious than most. He wasn’t after a lot of change; it was more about balancing out the not so healthy habits in his life. Which of course is totally fine! As the weeks progressed and Chris’ initial goals were already achieved, I suggested he try setting himself some new challenges.... Gradually, Chris successfully achieved challenge after challenge, while maintaining all his newly achieved healthy habits. Even during the stress of COVID and lengthy lock downs! He has come a long way in 6 months, I’m extremely proud to witness the transformation and excited to see what he achieves over the next 6 months. Well done Chris and thanks for all your hard work. Below are some words from Chris regarding his experience so far. When I started working from home and my gym closed due to COVID, I knew I faced a big decision: just sit at home and drink, or choose to do something to keep me moving, give me routine and help keep my mental health in check. With Beni’s private sessions, I made the choice to invest in doing something good for myself. I’ve leaned down and grown muscle in ways I hadn’t achieved from years of casual gym work. I’m stronger as a result and I can do exercises I used to dismiss as too advanced for my abilities. With Beni’s practical advice and encouragement to make small changes, I found they soon become bigger, sustainable ones. I’m now equipped to track and manage my diet effectively and have cut down my drinking by heaps. As an asthmatic I was apprehensive about being able to do much cardio but after starting a simple jogging and walking program, I’ve now built up stamina to go almost 10km and I’m keen to go further! What I like best is the expert guidance for managing my health and fitness holistically it’s different to how I’ve approached exercise before. It’s no longer just about what happens in a training session but looking at the bigger picture and how training works with the rest of my lifestyle. Beni has helped me get better results by taking into account the length and quality of my sleep, my alcohol intake, my diet and my movement when I’m not training. Health and fitness isn’t done to you it’s done with you. If you’re willing to just show up and make even the smallest of changes for yourself, you’re ready. Bring good energy and an open attitude to trying new things, and with the tailored advice of these knowledgeable professionals, you really can achieve results. Thank you Chris for sharing your story with us. I can't wait to support you with achieving your goals. If you have your own health, lifestyle and fitness goals then get in touch and share them with me! Just send me a DM or email me at [email protected] Until then, eat well and keep active. Beni #featuredclient #healthgoals2020 #lifestylechange

21.01.2022 Health & Fitness - Where to Start? Expectations: Firstly, it is challenging work. Initiating change is tough, maintaining it is even harder. Taking it step by step, day by day is key.... Do not expect it to be smooth sailing as you continuously make progress week after week. It will be a bumpy ride with many challenges to overcome. Becoming healthy and fit does not work for the short term. The fact that over two thirds of the population are overweight highlights our typical lifestyles are unhealthy. Dropping some weight then returning to your old lifestyle habits will result in gaining weight again. Health and fitness progress needs to be a lifelong commitment. Depending on your willingness to change, choose appropriately challenging goals that you can repeat daily, even on your worst days. #healthandfitness #goals #commitment

20.01.2022 Merry Christmas! We hope you have a great day, whatever you are up to. #christmas #seasonsgreetings #presents

20.01.2022 Calming the Mind & Nourishing the Body - Even on Weekends Let’s say you have a pretty good routine on week days: you eat healthily, train regularly with a coach and practice other healthy habits throughout the week. You work, study or do both, take care of your loved ones, drink plenty of water, and focus on having quality sleeps and rest.... And that's not to mention dealing with the obstacles and curve balls that life can throw, sent to challenge you and test your willingness and abilities. Then Friday night rolls round, and then the weekend.... How do you spend this time? Let us know in the comments below. #calm #mind #calmbodyCalming

19.01.2022 It's time for us to start sharing some recipes with you all so the first recipe we would like to share with you guys is Teriyaki Salmon! This version is healthier and lower in calories than the traditional recipe without sacrificing flavour. Its simple and delicious! This meal alone takes care of 60% of your daily nutritional targets. ... Salmon is a true superfood and a 150g piece contains a whopping 201% of your daily Vitamin B12, 110% of Vitamin D, and 245% of Omega-3 - three nutrients people are often deficient in. Pairing it with brown rice and these vegetables also gives you 29% of your daily magnesium requirement which you may not be getting enough of if you experience muscle cramps and twitching, or problems with thinking, moods, and memory. Cook an extra serving for lunch the following day and you wont be disappointed. Enjoy! ____________________ TERIYAKI SALMON 1 serving NUTRITION INFO 544 kcal | 37g protein | 38g carbs | 27g fat INGREDIENTS 150g salmon fillet For the marinade: - 1 tsp soy sauce - 1 tsp crushed ginger - 1 tsp minced garlic - tsp honey - 1 tsp sesame oil Serve with: - cup steamed medium grain brown rice - 50g sliced zucchini - 50g green beans - 1 cup chopped kale - 1 tsp sesame seeds - 1 lime wedge DIRECTIONS > Start preparing the steamed rice or have a microwavable packet handy. > To prepare the marinade, combine the soy sauce, crushed ginger, minced garlic, honey, and sesame oil in a mixing bowl. > Marinate the salmon in the fridge for a minimum of 1 hour. > Preheat your oven to 140 degrees. > Wrap the marinated salmon in foil and roast for 10-15 minutes depending on your liking. > Steam the zucchini, green beans, and kale until tender.

19.01.2022 Water awakens our psyche, soothes our emotions and acts as the transmitter for all manner of information about us. The first cell of our existence is nourished by it, the enzymes and hormones that guard our life float in this magnificent medium. Water is truly the source of it all! Water not only moves within all layers and parts of our being but also around and through our external environment. ... Relaxing in water provides a weightless environment and helps healing by taking the pressure off inner organs providing relief for the uncomfortable stomach and intestinal cramps. Baths also seem to help take away worries and frustrations from the day. Indicators of Dehydration - stomach discomfort - muscle cramps - light headedness - weakness - increased thirst - dry lips or mouth - depression - high blood pressure - high cholesterol - liver & kidney damage - exhaustion - pains all over the body Click the link below to read our full article on Water: https://beyondbest.com.au/water-the-elixir-of-intelligence #water #selfcare #nourished

18.01.2022 Hey BB crew, We have received official confirmation that Personal Training is currently not allowed under the stage 4 restrictions so, we will be temporarily transitioning to online training from tomorrow, Wednesday 5th August until in-person sessions are permitted again. Be sure to capture your entire body when setting up the camera for your online training session. ... Allow a couple of minutes prior to training to figure out the most suitable position.

We offer CrankIt suspension trainers for $150 to all BB clients (normally $250). If you would like one delivered please send us a DM. It's wonderful to see everyone continuing to work with us towards their health and fitness goals during these challenging times. We are grateful to be working with such legends! Thank you.

17.01.2022 Sarge shares a story about one of his long term clients and how they fine tuned their approach and agreed on sacrifices that needed to be made in order to reach desired goals. More often than not, successful weight loss takes alot of hard work and determination. If you are to be successful then you are going to have to make some sacrifices. #weightloss #determination #goals

16.01.2022 In this video, Sasha talks about portion sizes and how to create the perfect fat burning meal. Are you ready? #diet #nutrition #weightloss

16.01.2022 If you want to improve your appearances, among other key factors, you must pay close attention to everything you eat and drink. Most people seem to know that dropping body fat requires a calorie deficit and gaining muscle requires a small calorie surplus. These calorie requirements are going to demand some alterations to your food and drink choices and the only way to learn what will work best for you is by reading the nutrition labels. ... If the foods you wish to compare arent packaged and therefore dont provide a nutrition label, you will find comparable nutrition values using calorie counting apps like MyFitnessPal The less you eat packaged foods the better, however we've shared a simple guide from the Australian Government explaining how to read nutrition labels for those moments you are eating packaged food. By reading the nutrition labels you will be able to pick the best choices from a selection of similar items or you may learn to avoid a certain food more often. Either way its a lesson that will benefit you in the long term. Eat well and keep active. https://www.eatforhealth.gov.au//efh_food_label_example_13 #youarewhatyoueat #foodlabels #health #nutrition

15.01.2022 > Do you sometimes miss breakfast when you know you shouldn't? > Or do you not have the luxury of being able to sit down and have a meal? > Or are you wanting to build some serious muscle but just don't have the appetite to eat all the calories? If you answered YES to any of the above, then you should check out this video.... #diet #nutrition #supershake

15.01.2022 Muscle Building Tips Week 9 1 Dont follow trendy or fad diets. A balanced approach with controlled calories will almost always work best. 2 Learn how to cook! For long-term results this is probably the most useful tip.... If you are busy, try batch cooking your food once or twice a week. Or if youre very wealthy, have someone do it for you. 3 Keep your blood sugar balanced throughout the day. This will help you stay on track and avoid binge eating. #muscle #diets #cooking

15.01.2022 Muscle Building Tips Week 14: 1 Have a post-workout shake. Consuming a shake of fast digesting protein and carbs can be an easy way to get more calories in and help with recovery. 2 Take curcumin and add turmeric to your cooking. These aid in lowering inflammation which is key for quicker muscle recovery.... 3 Supplement with Vitamin D3. Particularly if you work an office job or live somewhere deprived of sunlight. 4 Sleep 7 to 9 hours a night. Sleep is much needed for recovery, testosterone production, and managing insulin and cortisol. 5 Take naps as often as possible. Even a quick ten minute nap can work wonders. #musclebuilding #diet #sleep

14.01.2022 The role of sleep and metabolism continued... Deprived sleep not only changes appetite hormones, but it also has been shown to have an impact on food selection and how the brain perceives food. Research shows that when lacking sleep, the areas of the brain responsible for reward become more active compared to people who slept well.... This could explain why most sleep - deprived people snack more, often choosing fast-digesting carbs, rich and sweet tasting foods. Also depriving yourself of sleep increases the total amount of food and energy density from unhealthy choices during the day. For more information on sleep, check out our sleep guide, which you can find here: https://beyondbest.com.au/2020//17/beyond-best-sleep-guide/ #sleepdeprivation #dietandnutrition #carbs

14.01.2022 CHICKEN FRIED RICE This weeks recipe is a great alternative to ordering takeaway. It's higher in protein and veggies, you know exactly whats going in it, and it will save you money too. The great thing about fried rice is, you can vary the vegetable and protein source to make any sort of combination you like. If youre not a fan of chicken breast, you can change it for beef or prawns and so on. ... Also, feel free to switch to brown rice if you prefer. It does have a higher fibre and mineral content. Enjoy! NUTRITION INFO 1 serving | 439 kcal | 45g protein | 31g carbs | 15g fat INGREDIENTS > 150g chicken breast > 1 tsp soy sauce > Olive oil spray > cup cooked basmati rice > 50g capsicum (any colour) > 1 egg, whisked > 1 spring onion, sliced > 1 cup kale, chopped > 50g broccoli, chopped > 1 tsp crushed ginger > Lime wedge DIRECTIONS > Prepare the rice.

Stir-fry until they soften. > Next add the cooked rice and chicken. Mix well with the veggies. > Push all the ingredients to one side and add the whisked egg.

Finally, add the soy sauce and mix. > Remove the pan from the heat and serve topped with the spring onion and a squeeze of lime juice. #recipe #chickenfriedrice #rice

14.01.2022 Muscle Building Tips Week 10 1 Before you get big you need to get lean first. If you are a guy, you really need to get to under 10% body fat before you start to think about consuming excess calories. If you are female, aim for under 18%. 2 If you are eating excess calories for maximum muscle growth, do not let yourself go above 15% body fat if you are a male, and 22% body fat if you are a female. The more fat you carry, the more efficient your body becomes at storing even... more fat. 3 You only need a slight amount of calories above your maintenance level in order to build muscle. Unfortunately, you cant force feed muscle growth. That being said, a lot of people, particularly naturally skinny people, dont eat enough consistently in order to build muscle. A good starting point is to aim for 16 to 18 calories per pound of bodyweight. 4 Pick nutrient-dense food when trying to eat enough calories for muscle growth. Red meat, whole eggs and salmon are superior to chicken, turkey and white fish. #muscle #musclebuilding #personaltraining #pt Prime Athletica

14.01.2022 Muscle Building Tips Week 16 1 Take measurements and photos. Using the scales, body fat callipers, and a measuring tape will help to ensure you are gaining muscle and not fat. 2 Set specific, measurable goals and chase after them. Having constant goals keeps you on track but also makes things more enjoyable and interesting.... 3 Keep a workout log. Always try to beat your last performance. Whether it be in weight lifted or reps performed. 4 Have patience and stay consistent! Rome wasnt built in a day. #workingout #musclebuilding #goals

13.01.2022 MEXICAN KANGAROO CHILLI AND SMASHED AVOCADO This week's recipe will surely warm you on these cold winter nights. Kangaroo is an extremely lean source of protein and makes a great change from eating beef all the time. ... Just one serving provides you with 52% of your daily iron intake which helps prevent anaemia. The high amount of vitamin C found in the red chilli and broccoli aid in the iron's absorption as well as provide you with disease fighting antioxidants. Your daily intake of vitamin K is taken care of thanks to the baby spinach. Ensuring you are getting enough folate and fibre on a daily basis can be difficult but this meal ensures you receive 50% of the recommended intake of both. Lastly, the avocado provides you with some good fat and is just downright delicious. Enjoy! NUTRITION INFO 1 serve 509 kcal | 48g protein | 54g carbs | 15g fat INGREDIENTS - Extra-virgin olive oil spray - large onion, diced - 2 tsp minced garlic - 1 red chilli, deseeded and finely chopped - 1 medium tomato, cut into quarters - 1 tsp paprika - 1 tsp cumin - 150g kangaroo mince - Sea salt and black pepper - 100g tomato passata - 1 tsp balsamic vinegar - 60g drained kidney beans Serve with: - avocado, peeled - 1 tsp chopped fresh parsley - 1 tsp lime juice - 1 cup baby spinach - 50g broccoli DIRECTIONS > Place a saucepan lightly coated with extra-virgin olive oil spray over medium-high heat.

13.01.2022 Hi everyone, We would like to introduce Paul, our newest personal trainer. Paul started his personal training journey back in 2005. Since then, he has developed specialised skills and knowledge in the areas of sports specific strength and conditioning, rehab/prehab, and body transformations.... Pauls ideal clients are self-motivated high achievers, typically CEOs, management and business owners who are goal orientated. Paul has extensive experience helping previous athletes get back into competitive sports, managing lower back, shoulder and knee injuries plus assisting with mental health issues such as anxiety, depression and eating disorders. Paul has achieved some great sporting milestones of his own having fought and won 10 amateur fights. He also played country rep rugby union and league. Paul loves to box, and he likes nothing more than watching a good game of competitive rugby. He also likes to surf and travel the world. For some downtime, Paul enjoys reading a good book, listening to his favourite band, Tool while eating a bowl of Mexican food. To welcome Paul to the BB crew, we are offering five lucky people the opportunity to train with Paul one on one for a heavily discounted rate. For only $299, Paul will take you through the 21 Day Lean Machine program.

10.01.2022 Muscle Building Tips Week 15 1 Get your sleep pattern in check. Try to go to bed and wake up at the same time each day including weekends. 2 Maximise your recovery. Stretching, soft tissue work, meditation and magnesium salt baths are all fantastic.... 3 Take care of your body and stay healthy. You wont make much progress in the gym if you are constantly injuring yourself. 4 Limit expending too much energy outside of the gym if you struggle to gain weight. Playing three hours of sports on your rest days isnt conducive to muscle growth. 5 That said, don't become out of shape. #musclebuilding #tips #heathandfitness #personaltraining #sleep

10.01.2022 Here is a simple yet highly effective tip from Paul that you could implement immediately to boost your health and performance. Did you know that 75% of the body is made up of water, even the brain is made up of 76% water! Water plays a role in every biological process within the body. If you are dehydrated by as little as 1% this equates to at least a 10% drop in physical and cognitive performance.... The benefits of staying hydrated with a quality water source include: > Weight loss via increased circulation > Clearance of fat by product (toxins) > Suppresses hunger (people often mistake dehydration for hunger) > Digestion - helps with motility of faeces > Detoxification - a transporter of toxins expelled through sweat and faeces. Symptoms of dehydration include: > Thirst > Brain fog/ poor memory > Cramping > Dry skin/lips > Hunger/ cravings As a baseline, aim to drink 0.033 X your body weight(kg) each day. Factors such as increased stress, training and heat would require more And don't forget about our limited 21 Day Lean Machine promotion, welcoming Paul to the BB team. We only have 3 spots remaining and the warmer weather is already here! Offer ends September 10th! T's & C's apply. Send us a DM or call Beni for more details.

10.01.2022 Would you like to enjoy running? If youd like to learn how to enjoy running, then aerobic base training with a progressive walk/run interval plan is probably going to be key contributors to your solution. Easier running sessions with no injuries is how I am suggesting you will enjoy your experience a whole lot more! ... Aerobic base training specifically targets the function of the aerobic energy system instead of the overly trained anaerobic energy system. Put simply, the anaerobic energy system is used during high intensity training which demands more recovery due to the high levels of stress it places on the body. Aerobic training is low to moderate intensity, which obviously places less stress on the body and can be repeated more frequently. What this eventually looks like is once youve developed a decent aerobic base, youll be running much faster at a comfortable, moderate intensity. Another worthwhile consideration would be to start your running plan modestly with a series of walking and running intervals. To begin, mostly walking with a small amount of running, then gradually progressing to more running and less walking, then finally running the entire duration. This not only aids your ability to train aerobically but also gives your connective tissue a chance to strengthen, resulting in less aches and pains. Eat well and keep active. #personaltraining #running #walking

10.01.2022 Thank you Prime Athletica, for a great night out last weekend! We had a great time. It was rad catching up with everyone outside of the gym and that was my first time out with friends in an extremely long time! Also, I discovered a new talent - Beer Pong haha

09.01.2022 BENI'S GLUTEN FREE MUESLI The beauty of making your own muesli is you can increase or decrease the macros (protein, carbs and fat), alter the ingredients to suit your dietary requirements, or to better suit your tastes. When making my own gluten free muesli I can eat more than twice the volume as store bought gluten free muesli for the same calories, more fibre and similar protein levels. *The lowest calorie gluten free muesli I've found in the supermarket contains a high 41...8 cals and 10.9gm of protein per 100gm. I like the taste, it’s convenient and I can make the calories work for me. If you want more protein, I recommend adding vanilla protein powder. Here's my recipe, give it a try! NUTRITIONAL INFO Per 100g serving (1 cup) 194.6 Calories | 7.21g Protein | 5.25g Fat | 28.65 Carbs INGREDIENTS *3.5 cups of wheat free oats *1.5 cups of puffed rice * cup of sunflower seeds * cup of pumpkin seeds * cup of mixed dried fruit #muesli #healthybreakfast #healthyeating

08.01.2022 Muscle Building Tips Week 11 1 Dried fruit and nuts is a great nutrient-dense snack for busy people. 2 If you start to put on too much body fat, do a mini cut to get back into reasonable shape. This will help improve your hormonal profile which will lead to more muscle in the long run.... 3 If you are a true hard-gainer and really struggle to put on weight, spike your calories to 150% of your normal intake once or twice a week. 4 Never skip meals. Missing one meal can lead to a lot of missed calories. 5 Eat more frequently. Dividing your calories into five or six meals per day can make it a lot easier to ensure you are eating enough. #musclebuildingtips #weightlosstips #personaltrainingfitzroy

06.01.2022 An interesting fact learnt recently from local Dietitian; Isabelle Hum was that our liver stores enough vitamin B12 to last around 3 years. Plant based diets don’t naturally provide Vitamin B12 though, so if you're vegan or vegetarian and not supplementing your B12 you’ll eventually run into deficiency issues. B12 deficiency can lead to Anemia so if you’re considering making the change to a plant-based diet, we suggest you seek professional advice to avoid vitamin deficiencie...s and health consequences. #nutrition #health #eatwell

06.01.2022 How We Get Great Results! What do we do at Beyond Best and what makes us different to other personal training services? Allow me to tell you a little about how I work with my clients. When I start with a client, instead of telling them all the things they should and shouldn't be doing, I find out where they’re currently at, and after making suggestions, the client is the one who then decides what habits and behaviours they feel ready, willing and able to adopt or change. ... After-all, it’s the client’s journey and they’re the one that truly knows what works best for them. I’m not here to force anything. I’m simply here as a guide to help them get to where they want to go. We implement one habit at a time and work on it for a couple of weeks before introducing another one. Let me help you understand this a little better by introducing one of my clients to you. Rachel is 34 years old and works as a GP. She’s always been active and because she likes to push herself would often end up injured in the past. Her goals when starting to work with me was to improve her fitness along with fat loss. She felt a lack of motivation and a fear of injuring herself again was holding her back. As one of Rachel’s goals is fat loss, we first introduced the habit of eating slowly and mindfully to ensure she would be digesting her food properly and not overeating. She then focused on tuning into her own physiological hunger cues and has started to stop eating when she is 80% full. Eating breakfast was never a priority for Rachel in the past but she felt like she might benefit from it. As she doesn't have much time in the morning, something quick and easy would be best, so we implemented what I call a Super Shake. After a week of putting this into practice she reported much better energy levels and less hunger and cravings throughout the day. When it comes to training, I taught Rachel that she doesn’t need to push through the wrong sort of pain in order to achieve results. By also implementing the Functional Movement Screen, I’m able to make sure the exercises she does are not only the right ones for her, but she is also doing them correctly. Like most clients Rachel likes to be held accountable, so I periodically check in on her habits and body composition measurements. This along with always looking for even the smallest win and celebrating it, and consistent positive reinforcement, has helped her achieve her goals and enjoy the journey getting there.

06.01.2022 Health and Fitness: Where to Start? Exercise: You cannot out train a bad diet! ... The calories burned during exercise for beginners are tragically low. It will take approximately 1 hour to burn 300 calories. For a reference, that is equivalent to 2 beers, or 1 slice of pizza, or 1 Snickers bar. Relying on exercise to create a calorie deficit will take hours of training each day. At first, exercise will not have a significant impact on your rate of fat loss, but as you get fitter and stronger your ability to burn more calories will increase significantly. This doesn't mean we don't recommend everyone to exercise! What we are saying is to use strength training primarily to get stronger and improve your shape, do cardio primarily to improve your cardiovascular endurance and heart health and focus on energy restricted healthy eating for fat loss. Exercise does not need to be and should not be 100% effort all the time. Muscle soreness, maximum heart rates, exhaustion and nausea are signs of intense training but not necessarily intense gains. Depending on your willingness to change, daily walking for 30 - 60 minutes is a good place to start. Once daily exercise is part of your routine you could introduce more intense exercise for additional work. Don't forget about our limited 21 Day Lean Machine promotion, welcoming Paul to the BB team. We only have 3 spots remaining and the warmer weather is already here! Offer ends September 9th. Send us a DM or call Beni for more details.

04.01.2022 Health and Fitness: Where to Start? Food: What and how much you eat, and drink will have the biggest impact on your fat loss.... Eating for fat loss is more than eating healthy. If you want to turn heads at the beach, you are going to need to learn portion control. Not just the overall size of the meal, but the portion of fats, carbs, and proteins too. If you choose to follow a diet, there are no best diets for fat loss other than which diet you enjoy the most and you can stick to. All diets work the same, in that they set restrictions on the type of food or when to eat resulting in less calories being consumed. You are not expected to eat perfectly all the time. You can still eat foods that are not part of your fat loss plan. Generally, you will need to stick to the plan 80% of the time. Do not stress If you have a blow out, just get back to the plan at the next meal. Depending on your willingness to change, you may decide to completely overhaul your weekly meal plan or choose to improve 1 meal at a time. Whatever you choose, it must be sustainable. Can you maintain it for the rest of your life? #dietandnutrition #foodportions #fatloss

02.01.2022 It's week 13 of our Muscle Building series so, check out this weeks tips below! 1 Try beta-alanine before your muscle building workouts. It helps to buffer lactic acid, or the burn, which will help you perform more reps. 2 If you are struggling with appetite or digestion, you could try taking digestive enzymes. These can be handy when trying to consume enough calories in order to build muscle.... 3 Liquid meals can help when used judiciously to gain size. Whey protein blended with oats, fruit and a nut butter are great. 4 If you don't consume oily fish at least 2-3 times per week, you will be wanting to supplement daily with fish oil. Fish oil improves your bodys ability to process carbs and reduces inflammation. Both important for building muscle. 5 Optimise your gut health by eating fermented foods like Greek yoghurt, kimchi, and sauerkraut. If you have taken antibiotics in the past, a course of probiotics will help repopulate any good bacteria that you may have lost. #muscle #tips #gainmuscle

01.01.2022 "You can lose fat doing cardio fasted and you can lose fat doing it fed. So in the end, decide how to do it based on your own personal preference. Arguably, the best way to do cardio is the way that gives you the most energy and highest performance. The best time is whenever youll do it the most consistently."... I've met hundreds of people wanting to get leaner who train 5-6 times per week, yet fail to drop any body fat at all. So, remember, while the article [link below] discusses the difference between fasted and non fasted cardio for fat loss, if you really want to make a difference to your body fat percentage, put extra focus into your eating habits To learn more, visit this link >> https://www.burnthefatblog.com/fasted-cardio-revisited #cardio #fasting #fatloss #personaltrainingfitzroy
