The BIG Picture of Good Nutrition
The big picture… Ultimately, we all seek enjoyment. We want to be happy doing our life thing. That includes going to work, having relationships, and eating. The list is much bigger than that but you get the idea. For me, exercise and nutrition have been the gateway for self empowerment, self awareness, and the pursuit of being happy. It may not be as exciting as drugs, sex, and rock and roll but perhaps it’s a bit more sustainable. I know, total Dad Joke. At the end of the d

The BEST Diet…
The BEST diet is the one you can follow ALL the time. The best diet helps you improve body composition, improve cognitive and physical performance, improve quality of life, and improves relationship with food. It’s pretty damn hard to follow because it’s not trendy and you will struggle along the way. But what you learn will stick forever. #diet #nutrition

Low Carb Diet: A Couple of Thoughts
Low carb diets work for some people and not for others. A lot depends on fitness levels, physical activity levels, how much lean mass someone has, and maybe some genetics influence. There are plenty of studies that show that low carb diets work and others that total calorie intake works the same. This means that you don’t have to go low carb to lose weight, but if it helps you stay on track then do it. The biggest driver in weight loss is a reduction in calories, in this cas

Intelligent coaching
“To eat is a necessity, but to eat intelligently is an art.” – La Rochefoucauld 10 years ago, this quote flipped a switch. It helped me simplify years of struggle with food and finally take steps towards controlling my eating. Because of it, I lost 100 pounds. It started my career in coaching people in nutrition and fitness. However, as I look back, the switch that flipped was essential but it wasn’t the end of it. What I thought “intelligent” meant was strict, structured, an

Brian Lost 40 Pounds in 8 Months!
Meet Brian. He’s a 39-year-old engineer who likes to lift weights, eat good food, and stay active. He used to eat quickly, large portions and snacked when he was bored. Brian has competed at a high level as an endurance athlete. He is very in tune with his body and his needs. In his words: “I understand the basics of nutrition (calories, macronutrients, etc) and have had success in the past weighing and measuring food. I know that when I have a task or goal to accomplish, I c

Low- Carb Diet vs. Low- Fat Diet… Who Wins?
Earlier this month (February), there was an interesting nutrition and diet study that popped up in my email and newsfeed. I even got a couple text messages about it. The study examined the effects of a low-carb diet versus a low-fat-diet over a 12-month period. The participants were encouraged to eat whole foods and instead of being given a calorie goal. Group 1 was given the additional goal of limitting their daily carb intake, and group 2 was given the goal of limitting t

You’re too damn lazy…
You’re too damn lazy… You don’t want it bad enough… You have to starve to lose weight… These are all fitness cliches that we’ve been conditioned to believe. They become guidelines that ultimately lead to failure. I think a good program should do the opposite than make you feel like a failure. Check out my online program that closes down later this week: https://tucsonstrength.lpages.co/nutrition-program/ Let’s break these cliches down. #1
