## Resource

HI BEAUTIES! Coach Nat and I are answering your questions all about body recomposition, macro splits for different goals, progressive overload, and what it actually takes to get better results. We’re breaking down Nat’s current marathon training and how she’s adjusting her macros to support it, my current macro split, how we fuel our bodies before and after workouts, and why we’re both BIG believers in starting your day with a solid breakfast. We also talk about shifting your mindset around macros and viewing food as fuel instead of something you constantly need to restrict. We get into what to do if you’ve lost weight but still don’t feel “toned,” how to structure your workouts if you only have three days a week to train, prepping for a vacation without crash dieting, tracking macros while living with a partner, and why being sore doesn’t necessarily mean your workout was effective.
