Firstly, thanks to RPM power for sponsoring this episode!Athletes always miss the forest for the trees on this topic. Losing weight or being lean is likely not going to be the biggest determinant in your sporting performance. What sport do you play or compete in, how are the podium spots decided? Is it how lean you are, who has the lowest body fat percentage or your physique? For the vast majority of people the three former items are not key performance metrics, with the exception of bodybuilding & physique competition. In many cases, when we get into the weeds on this with an athlete, the desire to lose weight on the surface is related to sports performance, but ultimately it tends to be about fitting in, low self esteem or a poor body image. Weight is not always a healthy or helpful thing.If you would like to work with my team and I to get the record straight on what types of nutrition protocols would work for you, you can find us here or reach out here.
