Hello and welcome to the Million Dollar Body Podcast with your host, Greg Fearon. And do you know what? It's been a while. It's been a while since I've released the podcast, and it's back. We are changing tax slightly, but you know, I had something to my mind and I wanted to share it with you. As I see a lot of these challenges, and especially as everyone's going back to work now, holidays are over, but you're thinking ahead to how your body's gonna look and feel in 2025, right? So if you're looking to do that, the time to start is now, all right. Anyway, I'm gonna dive into today's episode. So here's the one way that you're gonna really improve how your body looks and feels, and it's about your eating strategy, all right. So the thing you need to understand is that your body will change and improve by the way that you train, okay? The way that you train, work out, whatever you want to call it, is gonna dictate how your body looks to some degree. And yes, we can argue it's 80-20 diet and all that stuff, but the big issue that I see a lot of is the quality of the training or the training plan isn't as good as it should be. Okay, so if you want to create your million-dollar body, you need a million-dollar body training plan, all right? But there's a bit before the training plan, which I think is massively important to people. So my client Sam, um she came to me originally wanting to get into her bikini for a St. Lucia holiday, right? She approached her, Craig, look, I'm working out, I exercise, I'm I play a sport, but just somehow it's not quite getting the result that I want. Okay. And one of the things that we did that helped her get into her new clothes absolutely feel amazing in her bikini was we made a very small tweak to how she was training and the preparation before it. So I'm gonna talk about the training in another episode, but first of all, the one change that we made was this. You see, many of you women are doing a version of intermittent fasting, all right? So you're you're skipping breakfast, and oftentimes you will exercise early because that's the time where it fits into your schedule, right? But you're missing out on your breakfast, so you're eating breakfast afterwards. Now, the science is pretty clear that there isn't a massive amount of difference whether you eat fasted or non-fasted when it comes to fat loss, etc. etc. But this isn't about fat loss, this is about gym performance. Because as I said before, how you perform in the gym is gonna dictate how your body's gonna show up, right? So one of the things that Sam implemented from listening to one of our calls, etc., was to start eating breakfast or a meal or some sort on the days that she trained. So on the days where she wasn't training, she would do her intermittent fasting, eat a bit later. On the days that she was um training, we she would eat something in the morning, and she noticed a massive increase in how her training sessions went. Okay. And it's well documented that when you're training in a what we call a fed state, you're likely to train better. Okay. And if the goal is to create your million-dollar body, which is to be able to grow muscle and you know get that lean look, then or get leaner, then training fasted may be holding you back. Okay, and then what can often happen is it spirals that you skip breakfast, you train hard, then you you're like into the work day, right? You've got a company to run, you've got a team to run, got business to run, and then the day gets away with you before you know it, you haven't eaten lunch, or lunch is really late, and then you overeat to compensate. So it's a bit of a cascade, a bit of a roller coaster. So if I were you, one of the things you would really want to try is this have a small meal before your training session. So that might be um protein and carb meal. Um, doesn't have to be massive, doesn't have to be big, bowl of cereal will be fine. Like um, if that's going to be like a lighter pre-workout meal, obviously then have your more substantial protein breakfast. And I'll talk about that in another episode in the future. But for now, maybe what you need to do is stop trying to fast and train if you want to improve your performance, get stronger in the gym, grow some more lean muscle. And if you're looking to change your body composition, then your training has to take a bigger impact, and that means being fueled for your training.
