⚠️ CAUTION WITH EXERCISE TRACKERS (when tracking calories) They are NOT accurate at predicting how much you "burn". So don't make the mistake of eating back the calories it says you "extended" as it's very likely to put your calorie balance out of wack.

✅ CLEAN EATING NUTRITION "HACKS" 1️⃣ Wash your food before eating (for example, fruit & veg) 2️⃣ Cook food thoroughly to kill bad bacteria 3️⃣ Wash your hands before eating Sincerely your friendly neighborhood Sports Dietitian

A NEW Perspective: You will overestimate the results you can achieve in the short term. You will underestimate what you can achieve in the long term. Don't let your desire for quick fix solutions to skew the process.

A low body-fat % in itself, is NOT a secret to improved performance. There is more to this equation and simply focusing ALL your nutritional and training efforts on becoming lean AF, will not necessarily help you... Reach Your Peak Potential.

✅ UNDERRATED FAT LOSS TIP: Log your favourite food into your diet on a regular basis in a strategic way. This will help with making your nutrition fit your lifestyle!

Let that sink in bandwagoners hahah

Nutrition is like sport ‼️ You need to address the FUNDAMENTALS first. Before you jump to trying out "advanced" and complex nutrition strategy and goals.

The notion that the weight scale and the exact number that you weigh are the best or most important way to measure progress.... Is a BIG OL MYTH!

You DON'T need another diet to start the new year. You probably need a fresh strategy & a better mindset. Don't get your priorities wrong!

BE CAREFUL DURING JANUARY ‼️ This is a time when fad diets and crash diets come out to play. So don't fall prey! Sincerely, Your friendly neighbourhood Sports Dietitian

‼️ ANNOUCEMENT ‼️ New Year Resolutions are overrated! Instead... Think about New Life Resolutions ✅

Durant with 22 in the half and still only 2 points ahead of the Pistons without Jerami Grant ?!? 🧐 KD doing some heavy lifting

FYI ‼️ There is no such thing as a "perfect diet". You need to instead focus on having a more CONSISTENT and OPTIMIZED diet.

"Take this supplement to boost your fat-loss burning potential!" 🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩

"You need to only eat XYZ foods and avoid all ABC foods, to lose weight successfully." 🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩

I don't know if you need to hear this... But 1kg or pound of muscle does NOT weigh more than 1kg (or pound) of fat. They weigh the same. Muscle is just more dense so it takes up less volume and is much more functional weight.

When did "essential" and "optimal" become one in the same? With nutrition, this is a difference that you need to understand. It's key if you're an athlete wanting to make changes that can maximize your goal success.

REMINDER‼️ Do not OVER-estimate the results you can achieve in the short term. Do not UNDER-estimate the results you can achieve in the long term.
