All about training and anytime meals
We have built our meal system of training and anytime meals over the years to provide you with a simple structure to follow.
Calories and macros are important, but we eat food, not numbers. We also have to navigate an environment where food is easily accessible so having principles to follow that keeps you on track is essential.
Here are a few videos explaining the reasoning behind why we use this method.
Training and anytime meals
We have different meal types to help you structure your nutrition to support training and recovery. Doing this allows you to have space within your calories for different carb and fat amounts.
You do not need to be perfect with the breakdowns in each meal!
Overall calories and protein are the two most important areas to focus on. So start with these.
Structuring your week
When it comes to calories and macros we need to focus on what will have the biggest impact on your nutrition.
First is most important
- Weekly calories
- Daily calories
- Daily protein intake
- Daily carbs and fat macros
Now obviously we still want food quality and overall vegetable intake to be a priority (but you guys know that already!).
PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE watch this video if any of these resonate with you
- You find yourself not making progress in training as you have no energy
- You are good Monday - Thursday but then crave foods at weekends
- You are not losing weight
- You want to binge every weekend
Eating off plan
I do not expect you to be on plan for 365 days a year.
I do not expect you to be so strict every single week.
I want you to enjoy your food.
Being able to manage your nutrition in a way that makes it sustainable is crucial. This will allow you to have more flexibility and stay on track.....
Whilst not being the person who brings Tupperware to a dinner party.
It is what you do on average that counts. Watch the video to see exactly how we suggest structuring your nutrition. It is a sensible way - not an unrealistic diet you can't follow for more than 4 days.
