Our internal anatomy dictates a lot of our function.

1️⃣We have a heart on the left side of our bodies.
2️⃣We have a liver on the right side of our bodies.
3️⃣Our right lung has 3 lobes and the left has just 2.
4️⃣The left side of our thoracic diaphragm has less pull on the ribcage than the right.

This all reflects as a “spin” to the right. This is apparent when you see people in standing when they tend to favor or sit on one side over the other.

This spin makes certain regions of my body stretch, expand and yield to the other regions of my body that are shortening, compressing, and overcoming forces.

A good example of this is if you SQUEEZE your back muscles as tight as you can, look at what happens to your chest ➡️It opens up or gets bigger. Newtons 3rd Law.

Athletes can REALLY take advantage of this and they can do some really impressive stuff with that strategy. They can also overuse it and creates some issues for themselves by using too much of that superpower.

And THATS why you can’t shoot lefty.

I see this most often with high school athletes and people who are trying to lose weight.

For high school athletes - This is just a non-starter. A decent dynamic warm up is the tip of the iceberg when it comes to preparing for training and performance. You coming in at low energy because of low carb intake is on the same side of the fence as you sitting on the bench.

If you’re trying to lose weight and you don’t fuel well enough before you’re training, you absolutely risk a sub maximal stimulus and less effective training session. This can stunt your progress in the immediate and long term.

Eat carbs. Train and perform better. Be happy.

There are some who think New Years Resolutions are a waste of time.

I don’t think so.

We’re working within the space of the Intention-Behavior Gap.

There is something in you that is compelling this thought of lifestyle/body composition change. You are intending to walk towards those goals ➡️ But there is something that causes it to fail. In my experience this is because the gap between INTENDING to make some kind of change and demonstrating the BEHAVIOR is too wide.

Sometimes we’re not equipped to find strategies to bridge the gap. ➡️ THIS IS WHERE WE CAN HELP.

It doesn’t matter what your confusion is or what stuff gets in your way of having the outcome you’ve always wanted ➡️It starts with filling out the questionnaire! CHECK THE LINK IN MY BIO‼️

When it comes to nutrition, there is a lot of good information out there. There is also a ton of bad information out there. What this has lead to is more confusion and less than desirable outcomes for people who are trying to make a change or get closer to their goals.

It’s also important to understand that diets should ALWAYS run in phases. You should never be on a perpetual fat loss diet, just like you should never be on a perpetual muscle gain diet. It just so happens that the information we are running on tends to run out room to work, it might have been the correct direction initially but now it is not because the information of the individual we’re using that information on is now a different person. For example:

“I weigh 200 lbs and I need to eat less calories, no carbs and no fat. I’d like to weigh 150 lbs”

16 weeks later➡️”I now weigh 175 lbs and my progress has stalled. I’m tired all the time, exhausted, and I really want to quit.”

These are 2 different people. The first person was eating as normally as they would but was on the cusp of making a change and under no real metabolic/caloric distress. The 2nd person is 25 lbs lighter, has shot past the recommended diet length for fat loss, and is now under significant metabolic/caloric distress.

This person could have used someone to help create some structure around this diet goal and help them avoid /mitigate the distress they’re experiencing. Unfortunately this is an experience I’ve seen more than I’d like, and maybe you can resonate with this too.

If you’re someone who needs structure and a plan around your dieting goals (weight loss, muscle gain, maintenance/just eating healthier and building good habits) I’m happy to help.

There is a lot of information out there on nutrition. Some good, some bad. It’s all lead to more confusion and less successful outcomes for individuals.

Your process should be as simple as it can be without diluting or cheapening the final result.

Having a coach helps! If you need a nutrition solution, DKR has you covered. DM me or email for further information.
