The majority of our nutrition coaching clients have an overall goal to be healthier and to lose some body fat.  Let's talk about why it's so hard sometimes.

Today we are going to dig in to some of the specifics of fat loss.

What exactly is happening when we lose weight?  Why does it happen?  How come it happens differently for everyone?  How come formulas don’t always work for calculating how much to eat to lose fat? Why is it so easy to regain fat after the diet ends?  By the time you finish reading this you’ll have the answers to these questions and you’ll be better prepared should you set off on your own fat loss journey. 

We all have different goals when it comes to what we are trying to accomplish with our workouts. Some of us desire to run long distances. Some of us want to get as strong as possible. Some of us want to be well-rounded and generally fit for life, and some of us want to grow bigger stronger muscles. You might have to goal to get bigger muscles and not even know it. Many of our clients want to look more “toned”. Toned is code for having larger (not massive) muscles, that you can actually see because they’re visible under low body fat percentages.

If you want to make your muscles grow, your training needs to be biased in that direction and it needs to have a few key components and considerations which we will dive into today.
