Which nutrition stratergy suits YOU?

There's plenty of factors we need to consider when setting up your nutrition:

What are your goals?
What is the timeframe?
Do you have any preferences?
What is your lifestyle like?
How is your relationship with food?

Just to name a few...

Picking the appropriate stratergy for you is very important, the right choice will get you to your goal with the least resistance.

Do you want to get in shape?

I offer nutrition coaching as part of my 1-1 Personal Training at The Gym Group Altrincham.

Chris completely transformed his body in 12 weeks!

Running a successful business (shout out .t.coffeehouse ) and all the stress that entails, Chris had let his health and fitness slip.

He decided enough was enough and change was needed. Chris contacted me and we set out our plan, 12 weeks to get in the best shape of his life.

Chris’s busy work and social schedule meant he needed a plan which was adaptable. The plan had to fit around his lifestyle, not vice versa.

Through education around his nutrition and consistent hard work in his 3 weekly PT sessions, Chris was able to significantly reduce his body-fat and improve muscle tone (check out them abs!).

He’s now in a reverse diet as he gets ready to run the Altrincham 10k (link in his bio to donate!), and then it’s time to enter a gaining phase and build muscle 💪🏻.

Want results like this? I have a few spaces left for Personal Training at contact me now to book a free consultation!

🥜Healthy Fats🥑

-

Fat gets a bad wrap, this is due to a few factors... it’s the most calorically dense macronutrient (9 cals per gram), we’ve been told it causes heart disease, hell its name is FAT😂.

-

Healthy fats (mono and polyunsaturated) however, are a key part in a well-rounded healthy diet. Healthy fats have a positive effect on hormone regulation, nutrient absorption, maintaining healthy blood lipid levels, and a lot of them taste great!

-

If you count macros, be sure to get most of your fat intake from good healthy fat sources, be careful most of your fat is not coming from trace fats in your other foods. Good fat sources include: Avocados, nuts, olive oil, oily fish, eggs.

💤 The Importance if Sleep 💤

-

I have recently been discovered the work of Dr Matthew Walker, one of the leading scientists in the field of sleep. His book ‘Why we sleep’ and his podcast with Joe Rogan are a must read/listen.

-

Some of the consequences of poor sleep which Dr Walker outlines are scary. Most notably this stat: The day after The clocks go back and we lose an hours sleep heart attack rates go up by a whopping 24%, even more intriguingly, when we gain an hours sleep the heart attack rates drop significantly. This is shocking and stresses the importance of getting the recommended 7-8 hours sleep a night.

-

If you struggle to sleep, first of all prioritise it as much as possible. Here’s a few things you can do to help maximise your sleep:

-

📱 Reduce your exposure to blue light (the stress inducing light produced from@electronics such as phones and TV’s)

-

❄️ Keep your bedroom cool at night, if possible have a hot bath or shower before bed, this will accelerate your body’s cooling process.

-

☕️ Reframe from consuming caffeine in the afternoon, caffeine has a half-life of 6 hours. If you have an espresso shot at 4pm, at 10pm half of that espresso shot is still in your system

-

There are many more things you can do to optimise your sleep but these 3 tips are great starting points.

🔈Client Testimonial🔈

-

I’ve been working with Liam for almost a year now, the pictures above are from a 5 week mini-cut we did recently which as you can see were a great success, Liam lost 3kg whilst maintaining muscle mass and performance in the gym. Liam came to me as a complete beginner and now stands out as someone with great overall exercise mechanics, this has translated into aesthetic results also, he’s gained over a stone in muscle mass since we started together.

Here’s what Liam had to say:

“Angus taught me how to use great and safe form for compound lifts, he also helped me to improve my mobility which made lifting weight easier.
On top of that, he showed me a variety of assistance and isolation movements for individual muscles.
My strength and muscle mass has improved significantly with his advice. He is very knowledgable about both strength and conditioning, and has a variety of different training methods to help achieve different goals.”

🏋🏻‍♂️ Single-Arm Dumbell Row 🏋🏻‍♂️

-

I like performing these with little to no swinging momentum, makes them much tougher but I feel a big difference in terms of Lat activation.

-

✅ Key teaching point for these is to pull from the elbow to the hip, this should help you feel that deep contraction down the Lats.

Cable Face Pulls 💪🏻

-

I regularly prescribe this exercise to clients and here’s why..

-

1️⃣ Targets the rear head of the Deltoid (Shoulder), a part of shoulder which is very inactive and weak in most individuals.

-

2️⃣ Can offset a kyphotic Posture (rounded shoulders), something very common in people who sit at computers for large portions of their day.

-

3️⃣ Aesthetically, Face Pulls contribute to ‘rounding out’ the shoulder and achieving that 3D look.

-

When giving it a try, focus on keeping the elbows high to prevent the Lats taking over.

The deadlift 🏋🏻‍♂️

-

One of my absolute favourite movements, and is for sure the best at building ‘all round strength’.

-

Main points to focus on for beginners:

-

1️⃣ Keep the bar close to you throughout the movement, start with the bar over mid foot

2️⃣ Keep a neutral spine by retracting the shoulder blades and keeping the abs switched on throughout.

3️⃣ Allow the hips and chest to rise at the same time.

Resistance Machines vs Free Weights?🧐

-

Resistance machines are great, especially for beginners who have recently started resistance training. Compared to free weights, machines are much safer (less balance required and much less risk of form breakdown), they are great at focusing on a very specific movement and muscle group (e.g. leg curls for hamstrings), and are much easier to learn.

-

Dumbbells, barbells, kettlebells, sandbags... the list goes on and on, free weights offer us variety. Take a chest press.. just by changing the equipment used we can perform tonnes of different variations, each variation working the target muscle and surrounding joins differently. Most free weight exercises require much more muscle recruitment and core stability compared to a machine alternative, for this reason I recommend intermediate lifters always aim to use predominantly free weight exercises.
