    #61 - Solo Episode: Intuitive Eating - Trust Your Gut (But Train It First)

    In this video, Coach Vinny explores the nuances of intuitive eating for body transformation goals. Intuitive eating is a skill that requires building food awareness through practices like tracking macros, portion sizes, meal planning, and meal prepping. The key takeaways are: intuitive eating alone may not work for body transformation goals right now; building food awareness through tracking, weighing food, and meal planning is crucial; over time, with experience and practice, intuitive eating becomes more natural; and don't stress if intuitive eating isn't working initially—build the foundational habits first. Whether you're a fitness enthusiast or just starting your journey, this episode provides valuable insights into navigating intuitive eating while pursuing body transformation goals.
