HOW DO I IMPROVE MY METABOLISM? BROOKVALE, SYDNEY

METABOLIC RATE & REVERSE DIETING 

If you rarely get hungry & have been living on low calorie diets for as long as you can remember there is a possibility that metabolic rate is not operating as ideally as possible. I often get clients coming to me complaining of never getting hungry & only eating minimal amounts of nutrition.

Often a history of under eating, skipping meals & over exercsing has led to a natural down regualtion of metabolic rate & thyroid hormones.

In this situation it does not matter how many more meals you skip or gym sessions you do, until you start to revere these natural negative adaptations to the metabolic rate fat loss, vitality, recoverability & training performance will all be well below ideal – this is very common!

SHOULD I DO CARDIO FASTED? BROOKVALE SYDNEY

When it comes to cardio for FAT LOSS i’m personally not a fan of doing cardio first thing in the morning before eating at least a small balanced meal.

Some people on the other hand love it & tolerate it well.

The most important thing to understand in relation to cardio for fat loss is that when we do it is irrelevant, energy balance dictates the rate of change we achieve.

Training is that fasted or not   there is no difference (AT ALL) to the results you will achive

Obviously if we feel better, are time restricted or prefer training before or after food it’s best to go with what feels right for you not what someone else recommends you do.

ARE SPORTS DRINKS HEALTHY?

So which one is better for us. Sports drinks or Fresh Young Coconuts?

Here we have slick advertising & big business marketing at its best!

PowerAde & Gatorade drinks are full of artificial nasties!! Colourings, flavourings, additives, processed sugar & sodium chloride…

Seriously YUCK!!

These things are all known to cause digestion issues & are not much better than soda in my opinion.

Just because sportsmen are getting paid to drink them does not mean they are healthy or optimal.

These drinks are completely synthetic based & come from a laboratory!
