Changing your attitude towards food

Ever found yourself sitting at a table, staring at the meals around you, the food in front of you, or at a restaurant observing what others are eating, and your go-to thought is negativity or judgement around certain foods? Examples like… ‘Wow that must have heaps of oil’ ‘That must have a lot of carbs in it’ ‘red meat causes cancer’ ‘I would feel guilty after eating that’ and the list goes on… In all honesty, this has become the new normal around certain foods, a lot of foods even, and how we view them at first glance. Rather than...

Portion sizing

Do you have a relationship with your food scale? So much so that you feel as though you have to carry it around everywhere you go in order to count every single macronutrient, calorie intake to the very decimal?

Portion sizing, using your hands! One level handful = ¼ Cup. (a single serving of nuts is usually ¼ cup) One Heaping handful =...

Getting rid of that "Holiday Weight"

2021…’new year new me-starts crazy 900 calorie diet’ GUESS WHAT?! Going ‘crazy’ or 0-100 with your diet in the first month of 2021 is not going to be as beneficial as you may think. In fact, did you know, a large majority of people who start diets, excessively restrict, lose some weight, end up putting on MORE weight than they started with…and I’m not talking muscle mass. Unfortunately, when people go full blast with starting diets or in this case, new years resolutions, they don’t end up being sustainable, and after a few weeks, maybe if you’re lucky a...

Do different types of fuel effect suit specific types of training?

The consumption of fuel prior to training has been researched to be beneficial (within reason), but, does this apply to all forms of training? You may have heard of the classic fasted cardio, fasted general training, consumption of differing nutrients around your training etc. But, are their specific types of fuel that may benefit us of large in our different styles of training? Majority of studies show that the consumption of carbohydrates prior to training is beneficial to training performance as carbohydrates are our primary source of energy. Depletion of carbohydrates before training generally forces our bodies to go to...

Can you eat too much fruit?

Summers almost here…and with that…comes the best (debatable, I know) fruits to Australia!! I’m talking mangos, cherries, grapefruit, figs, currants, grapes, mangos again….! So, the question is, can you eat too much of these delicious fruits? As per the Australian Dietary Guidelines outlines, 5-6 serves per day of fruit is recommended for the average Australian. Now, this does NOT mean that it is the MAXIMUM intake per person per day. In fact, the Australian Dietary Guidelines merely outline the MINIMUM intake per food group. This means, that 5 pieces of fruit is the minimum recommended daily intake for the AVERAGE...
