In that episode, we focused more the physical fitness aspect of periodization and this week, we’re talking about nutrition and how to eat to get the most out of your Macrocycles, Mesocycles, and Microcycles. Exercise is one way to get into shape, but you won’t get the results you want without nutrition either.  If you’re training for a fitness competition, you gotta focus on the amount of macronutrients you intake and it’s the same if you want to get into shape with a periodization plan. To learn more about macronutrients and eating right for a fitness competition, you can learn a lot from last week’s podcast OSF 185 with Paul Revelia: The Building Blocks of a Muscular Physique in which he explains how to become a natural bodybuilder.

After a member of the Open Sky Fitness Facebook Group asked about it and how we can deal with it over the holidays.

Depending on how we treat our environment today, that will determine how we will live in the future. Something that we do have control over is how we grow and distribute food via different farming techniques. Unlike industrial farming, sustainable farming gives us food that comes from farming techniques that product the environment, public health, human communities, and animal welfare. On this week's episode, Devon and I share how industrial agriculture is harming the earth and how sustainable farming can help us reverse those effects and beyond to grow and flourish as a society. Be mindful of what you eat; think about where it's coming from and how was it transported to you.

There is not immediate, over-night success that comes in the form of a pill. There is no secret to having it all. Rather, real results come from hard work, patience, and determination over the length of time. Dan John has written for various publications such as T-Nation and Men's Fitness. He is the author of many books including Never Let Go, Mass Made Simple, Can You Go? and Now What? Together, we had a fascinating conversation about fitness, nutrition, and living life with a plan.  I learned so much from talking to Dan and I hope you do too.
