Join host Christina Slater as she explores the psychology behind your habits and the shadows that shape patterns like binge eating, all-or-nothing thinking, and self-sabotage in your fitness journey. Expect raw conversations about body image, mindset, relationships, self-trust, and the deeper inner work most coaches won’t touch — the work that transforms your mind, your body, and your life from the inside out. If you want to get fit, get inspired, think deeper, and explore the parts of fitness no plan ever talks about, you’re in the right place. Hosted on Acast.

From carb cycling to refeed days, reverse dieting, and treat meals. Tune in to learn how each one works, when (or if) they’re actually needed, and why jumping into these before you've mastered the basics does a LOT more harm than good. If you’ve ever felt tempted to “try something new” with your diet, this episode unpacks the pros and cons of each strategy and explains why nutrition is highly context dependent. Christina breaks down the why behind each approach—so you (and your coach) can feel more confident applying the right tools at the right time. Topics Discussed: What \"advanced nutrition protocols\" actually are and why they're not ideal for everyone How to know when you're ready for more “advanced” strategies (and when you're not) Why slow & simple TYPICALLY works better than any complex strategy What actually matters more — when you eat or what you eat? The biggest mistake people make with treat meals, reverse diets, and refeeds What actually crashes your metabolism (it's probably not what you think) Why the first 16–32 weeks with a coach are just the foundation Treat meals vs. cheat meals: the psychological risks and benefits Refeed days vs. refeed meals: when to use them and how they differ Diet breaks vs. reverse diets: what makes each one more or less effective Plus: Christina’s take on meal timing, macro splits, digestion, gut health, and why “just hit your macros” is usually not good enough.  Other episodes referenced: EP 81: How to Eat for Weight loss Without Ruining Your Metabolism: https://open.spotify.com/episode/1DhVaesZUCABCYKq3my3Pq?si=zxQMFJ6zSZCr9Jp0qpwSKg EP 104: Reverse Diets!
