This can be very frustrating mate,
not gonna lie.
As a personal trainer you get asked a sh#t tonne of questions
when it comes to nutrition.
While it’s great you can help people out
and it shows that the person is genuinely interested.
There’s one BIG issue with most.
See more often than not the question is usually about
some minute detail
that in the grand scheme of things
doesn’t matter a sh#te.
For example,
You get a fella who’s 5 stone overweight and has been for sometime.
So automatically I know his calorie consumption needs to be addressed
first and foremost.
But problem is,
his biggest concern is what
brand of protein powder should he buy.
So while protein powder could be beneficial for him
(if he struggles to hit his ideal target through food alone)
it’s pointless worrying about it.
Until we address the big fat elephant in the room
ie the overconsumption of calories.
And until we address that,
it’s pointless even thinking about the protein powder.
Watch this last video of the series:

Even if you missed a few last week,
this will quickly recap all the fundamentals
I cover with the lads in Bulletproof Dad.
Seriously here’s the link again
Do yourself a BIG favour and watch this one.
Could save you a fortune.
