In this episode of The Leo Alves Podcast, we are joined by fitness expert and author Susan Niebergall.
Throughout this discussion, we tackle topics like the Dunning-Kruger effect on nutrition, the importance of hiring a coach, and the transformational effects of calorie tracking.
As someone who stands firm in the belief in continuous learning, Susan offers her candid opinions on trending health subjects, such as low-fat ice cream, squatting on a Bosu-ball, and the benefits (or lack thereof) of Apple Cider Vinegar.
Key discussion points in this episode include:
- The mindset shift needed when entering a calorie deficit.
- Tackling trigger foods and how to navigate them in your diet.
- The ongoing debate surrounding artificial sweeteners and their impact on health.
- Fitness nuances during the menstrual cycle and how women can maximise their training.
