Join The Elite, Now. ---- QUESTIONS ANSWERED: 1:15- 4 meals per day or 5? With 5 I feel they’re super close, with 4 they’re more spread out but I’m adding 45g of fat in a single meal to hit my targets… what do I do? 15:20 - Specific nutrition prescription advice, for a coach in need of help for his client to break through a plateau. 27:50 - I'm setting up a new program for myself - shooting for 4-day full body.

Today we dive into ALL THINGS Nutrition! Topics Discussed: 10:30 - I’m 54, 6’ and 205. Would like to get down to 185 – most of that coming from my midsection. After listening to you for some time, I’ve split up my workouts to upper and lower on different days and added more sets. I was just doing a full body workout twice a week with only 1 set per exercise. I do cardio the day before and after the weight days then rest a day and start over. I’m losing about 1# per week and eating about 1800 cals. Here’s the problem. I started off really well, but now the third set is a struggle and I swear that I’m getting weaker each week. Not enough calories? Overtraining? What do you think? Thanks for all the great information you’re putting out there. It’s really helping me understand!  22:00 - What's better? To do lower macros with 2 refeed days a week or to do the same macros all 7 days if total calories end up being the same. 28:05 - Should I count collagen in my total protein for the day? I read somewhere that it w
