    S1, Ep 21: Metabolism 101- What Does 'Calorie Burn' Really Mean??

    In this episode we are introducing the basic components of human metabolism relative to total daily energy expenditure (TDEE) aka "calorie burn" or how many calories we are burning on any given day. There are many misunderstandings when it comes to metabolism, so in this episode we break down the 4 components of TDEE including our basal metabolic rate, exercise activity thermogenesis, non-exercise activity thermogenesis, and thermic effect of food. We discuss how they contribute to our metabolism, the variables that impact them, and how to make lifestyle changes to increase TDEE. We also discuss energy balance and highlight the importance of fueling adequately to avoid metabolic adaptation, poor performance/recovery, and other health issues.

    S1, Ep. 16: Goal Setting: Mistakes and Solutions

    In this episode we talk about a very important topic… setting nutrition & fitness goals! We first review common mistakes made when goal setting, such as choosing goals that are not behavior/action focused and setting extreme or all-or-nothing goals, both of which do not set you up for sustainable behavior change. We review the importance of setting SMART goals, which provide actionable steps that are realistic to get you to where you want to be. We also talk about how evaluating your progress and improving should be approached without criticism or negative self-talk, and how to reframe your mindset around goal setting.

    S1, Ep 15: Carnivore Diet (Myth Busting Episode!)

    In our first myth-busting episode, we review the carnivore diet (a popular fad diet these days) and discuss the health and nutrition risks associated with this restrictive diet. We discuss its impact on cardiovascular health, relationship with food, and nutritional status. Fad diets like this are often promoted by fitness influencers or coaches that have little to no nutrition training. We give our RD review of why this diet is so problematic and potentially dangerous for those following it. We want you to be informed when making nutrition decisions and we hope this episode convinces you to not fall victim to restrictive and non evidence-based diets such as the carnivore diet.
