#3: Nutrition

Exercise is only part of the fitness equation. In this episode we discuss nutrition and how to develop both long-term and short term food plans to reach your goals. We walk through the basics of estimating your calorie burn (with or without electronic aid), converting your weight loss/gain/recomposition goals into calorie goals, and choosing food that makes sense for your needs. Most importantly, we discuss how to nurture your own “BS detector” when it comes to fad diets and extreme changes. Finally, we talk about some of our favorite foods and how they fit into our fitness plans. Note: This is the last of our pre-recorded podcasts. Your next episode of FitSmart will arrive next week and will include listener calls! You can call in your questions, comments, and concerns at 214-296-9229.
