Do you follow someone who every time you land on their profile it just makes you feel bad or you start comparing yourself? What you allow will continue. Social media can be toxic for some. I encourage you to do a purge of unfollowing profiles or people that do not serve you or boost your mental health. You have the power! #mentalhealth #mentalhealthmatters #mentalhealthawareness (PC: @mallyroncal)

🤷🏻‍♀️ So you took the test - NOW what?!
.
It’s one of those things . . . somebody or some thing becomes “famous for” and everybody wants a piece of the action!

This is certainly common place in the fitness industry. Introduce the latest and greatest “new trend” and the experts, gurus, and influencers come running!
.
👱🏻‍♀️ But here’s the thing . . . It’s not about the “latest and greatest” tool or devise for gathering information, it’s about what you do with the information to Get RESULTS!

Case In Point
✨Body Composition
✨ Resting Metabolic Rate
With newly developed technology in the market place, the excitement to offer and get tested is the craze - but having the knowledge and experience to put the information into practice is where the magic happens!

What matters and what will make the difference relevant to YOUR specific goals is how we put the PERSONAL back into programming!

💪🏻🤨 #CoachingTip - Did you know that Improved Body Composition is 1 of the 5 Health Related Components of Fitness?

🤓👉🏻 While the motivation for Weight Loss/FAT Loss can include aesthetics, here’s why it impacts more than simply “looking better naked”!

✅ Besides the decreased risk of heart disease, hypertension, high cholesterol and type 2 diabetes, scientists studying overweight people discovered that losing just one pound of body weight reduces four pounds of pressure on knee joints.

✅ Losing excess weight also reduces strain on the blood vessels, increases blood flow to the brain, and boosts overall brain function.

✅ Several studies have shown that people who underwent weight-loss surgery saw an improvement in memory, concentration, and problem-solving skills in as soon as three months.

✅ Plus, brain scans indicate that people who lost weight and kept it off for nine months reacted differently when shown images of high-calorie foods than before they lost the weight.

✅ The brain regions that process reward, motivation, and taste didn’t react as strongly, whereas the areas that promote overall self-control had a boost in activity.

“I haven’t exercised in so long, I don’t know where to begin,” some patients tell me.⁣⁣
I reply to begin every day with 30 minutes of moderate exercise. This can have an extraordinary effect on the rest of your day, jump-starting your metabolic engine and balancing your brain chemistry, blood sugar, and hormones so you make better choices.⁣⁣
⁣⁣
If you already have a fitness routine, you can continue to do whatever form of exercise you enjoy for those 30 minutes.⁣⁣
⁣⁣
If, up until now, exercise hasn’t been a regular part of your life, start with 30 minutes of brisk walking — or even slow walking, if that’s all you can do. If you can only do five minutes, start with that and do it twice a day and then work up slowly over the week. Walking is easy, it’s accessible to almost everyone, and it doesn’t require any memberships or fancy equipment.⁣⁣
⁣⁣
As you get stronger, you can increase your exercise intensity and experiment with other kinds of activities.⁣

Inflammation. Heart disease, gut issues, chronic pain, brain imbalances, and even acne are all forms of inflammation (just to name a few). I love helping people reduce inflammation, stabilize blood sugar, and bring their bodies into homeostasis. Food is our medicine, and if you’re eating the wrong types, they can be your poison. It might surprise you!! 💪🏻

👱🏻‍♀️So how do consumed carbohydrates make their way into fat cells, anyway?

Carbohydrates are broken down to glucose >> unused glucose is converted to glycogen and stored in the liver and muscle >>> when glycogen storage cites are full excess glucose/glycogen >>>> fat!

👉🏻 Once the storage limits are reached in the liver and muscle, your glycogen "tank" is full and no more glycogen can be stored there. When the glycogen tanks are full, the cells of your liver and muscles put up a "stop sign" to insulin. They do this by "downgrading" or desensitizing the insulin receptors on their cellular surface. Since the insulin signal is being ignored, unstored glucose starts to build up in the bloodstream, and more and more insulin must be secreted to move the glucose into the cells. Insulin levels climb very high, and you become insulin resistant. Your liver then sends the excess glucose to your fat cells to be stored as body fat. (The liver can also make the glucose into LDL cholesterol, which is why a high sugar diet is detrimental to heart health).

✔️ If you continue to eat a high carb diet, glucose and insulin levels increase, and so does fat storage. As insulin levels in the blood remain high, stored fat stays locked in our fat cells.

Soooo....
✅ When carbohydrate intake is lowered, lower levels of blood sugar are generated, less glucose needs to be stored, less insulin is secreted, and less fat is created.
✅ Exercise utilizes some of the stored glycogen in your muscles and provide some help with insulin sensitivity issues.

In either case, “clearing” muscles of glycogen allows the receptors on the muscles cells to once again become sensitive to insulin. As the muscle cells become more sensitive to insulin (and carbohydrate intake is reduced) insulin levels begin to decline. In effect, LESS insulin is needed to store energy.

Most people are so confused about the ratios of protein/fat/carbs that are best for them! 🤔 It’s not a “one size fits all”. That’s why we start with metabolic testing! 💪🏻 If you’re not fat adapted or metabolically flexible, chances are, a higher protein, higher fat, extremely limited carb (fruits and veggies) plan is what is best for YOU! (At least for initial fat loss and hormone/insulin balance). That’s why we’re the ONLY ones who do what we do. 🔥Medical grade metabolic testing, personalized and scientific nutrition, and sustainable results 🙌🏼

#sciencesaturday with Kyle 💡

“I’ve tried everything but nothing is working.” Sound familiar? We thought so. This is the most common ‘perceived problem’ of almost every client we train over the age of 40. The opportunity? TEST DON’T GUESS!

Before we determine a pathway to success for each of our clients, we spend an hour of consultation time learning and measuring their performance levels. When the culprit can not be identified through conversation, we then move to science by conducting RMR Testing (Resting Metabolic Rate).

Metabolic rate is a measure of how quickly your body expends energy. This is also referred to as your "caloric burn rate". Resting metabolic rate testing shows how many calories your body burns at rest, giving you the data you need to plan a weight loss, weight gain, or weight maintenance plan designed to succeed.

To see results after making a body composition goal, it’s crucial to understand your specific metabolic information. A Resting Metabolic Rate (RMR) test provides the details you can’t guess by yourself or calculate online. Interpreting results from an RMR test is also important to understand how a tailored nutrition plan can help achieve your desired body composition changes.

Results-that’s what you’re after and that’s what we provide.

👱🏻‍♀️ #Orthorexia: When Diet Culture Becomes Dangerous

Orthorexia (#CleanEatingDisorder) is an eating disorder defined as “an obsession with proper or ‘healthful’ eating.” Its definition seems harmless enough, seeing as most people in Western culture strive for wellness. The misconception though, lies in the term “obsession.”

Orthorexia is so new to eating disorder definitions that the term has not even been formally published in the DSM-5, the diagnostic tool used by certified psychologists and published by the American Psychiatric Association.

Said to be derived from obsessive-compulsive disorder or anorexia nervosa, orthorexia can be defined by the presentation of the following symptoms:
- Compulsive checking of ingredients lists and nutrition labels
- An increase in concern about the health of ingredients
- Cutting out an increasing number of food groups (all sugar, all carbs, all dairy)
- An inability to eat anything but a narrow group of foods that are deemed “healthy” or “pure”
- Unusual interest in the health of what others are eating
- Spending hours per day thinking about what food might be served at upcoming events
- Showing high levels of distress when “safe” or “healthy” foods aren’t available
- Obsessive following of food and “healthy lifestyle” blogs on Social Media platforms

The slope gets slippery with the unfortunate misconception that an individual’s value is tied to his/her physical beauty, prioritizing extrinsic qualities over intrinsic ones, communicating the idea that conforming to beauty promises a better life.

☝🏻🤓 What Does It Mean To Be #FatAdapted?

Simply put, “fat adapted” is the metabolic state your body is in once your body has efficiently transitioned from burning carbs/sugar as it’s primary source of energy to burning fats. This transition occurs based upon shift in:
✅ Exogenous Sources of Energy (External Sources/Diet Intake)
✅ Endogenous Sources of Energy
(Internal Sources/Stored Glycogen and Body Fat).

When you #MakeShiftHappen with dietary changes such as vastly reducing carbohydrate intake and through intermittent fasting, your body will respond by burning off all the remaining circulating carbs and glycogen stores.

👉🏻 Increasing your level of activity and modalities of exercise can influence as well as expedite this process!

😃 When dietary carbs and an abundance of glycogen stores are no longer an option, the body becomes more efficient at utilizing dietary fats and effectively taps into excess fat stores for energy.

🔥 After four weeks or more, the body gets used to living off of fat, thus becoming “fat adapted.”

Once fat adapted, people generally experience:
✅ Reduces cravings for carbs
✅ Improved ability to differentiate appetite (the “desire” to eat) v. hunger (the “need” to eat)
✅ Improved sensitivity to Satiety

The facts are in, the science is beyond question. Sugar in all its forms is the root cause of our obesity epidemic and most of the chronic disease sucking the life out of our citizens and our economy — and, increasingly, the rest of the world. You name it, it’s caused by sugar: heart disease, cancer, dementia, type 2 diabetes, depression and even acne, infertility and impotence.⁣⁣
⁣⁣
Now, as far as this question is concerned, it’s important to take a look at the whole diet instead of just focusing on one ingredient in your coffee. Are you consuming sugar throughout the day? What about hidden forms of sugar? The truth is: food manufacturers put sugar into everything from ketchup to bread and all food products in between.⁣ Its often not the little bit of sugar you add to your coffee that’s the problem; it’s the sugar added to everything by big food that’s the problem.
