We can have a misguided alignment in thinking that we may reach our goals better by being under fueled. But this is often taken way out of context and isn't overly reliable in reaching our goals. Today's episode looks into why being fed is so important and why skipping meals may be the reason why so many can't seem to get a rhythm with their nutrition.2022-10-2420 minThe Rig's Rambling's#16 The Three T's, Time Taste TextureWe use our senses all the time when we are addressing our nutrition, but are we truely paying attention?

What it means and how best to approach it for your nutrition and/or weight loss goals.

But it certainly doesn't have to be that way. When working with me, you certainly will learn about having your cake and eating it too. 2022-10-1327 minThe Rig's Rambling's#12 You don't lack will powerThe phrase "sort out your willpower" really shits me. It is not will power you lack.. we all have it.. in varying amounts. Today's episode explains what will power is, why we all seem to have different amounts or strengths of it and how you can improve it. Because you most certainly do not lack it or don't have it. Like anything, it can be improved, depleted and ignored. 2022-10-1020 minThe Rig's Rambling's#11 Restrict- add don't restrictThis last thing you will hear from me when starting your nutrition journey, is that you need to cut things out of your diet.

Restriction doesn't lead you anywhere but to misery and contempt. Let's hear why.2022-10-0633 minThe Rig's Rambling's#10 Sleep affecting appetiteWhen people ask me what is the most important aspect of nutrition, I will always say sleep.

I often say that the science behind nutrition, exercise and weight loss is simple, because it is, but putting it into action is where it turns hard. It is so easy to get lost amongst it all and give up. But it doesn't have to be that way. Not at all.2022-09-3025 minThe Rig's Rambling's#8 Spot reducing fatI hate to break it to you, but anyone telling you that you can reduce body fat in certain areas by x,y and z... is either lying to you or trying to sell you something.
