Having the right nutrition plan for you.

Have you ever heard the expression your "Diet" is 70% of the work?

While that is true , it is not your diet per say but your understanding of nutrition and the timing to that nutrition with respect to the quality, quantity and frequency of your training.
The Before Image was a client working out for a year and not understanding nutrition and more over not understanding the nutrition that was specific to his training.
Look at the After picture, we started training him and teaching him how to modify his nutrition, while cooking in his own ethnic style he transformed in less than a year without using supplements and any enhancements.
He was leaner, fitter had more energy and confidence and was on the right path to grow into the image of his physique he envisioned.
He was is 40 yrs old, had a body-fat % of 33% and weight of 216 lbs. We helped him drop his weight to 174 Lbs with a body-fat% of 16%
As training progressed he became stronger. he could not do pull-ups at first and had to use bands and an assisted pull-up machine at the gym.
Diligent training with combined nutrition caused him to get stronger. He is now doing pull-ups with 70 lbs addition weight hanging from his waist!!

Now the idea most of us have, the stronger you become the more muscle you gain, while that has some truth to it , it might not necessarily get you the body and look your are trying to achieve. 
Your body is extremely adaptive and your existing muscles can become stronger, build more efficient neural pathways to execute the motion without you seen a big change in muscle shape or mass.
You have to incorporate a hypertrophy training method which is tailored to building muscle size, which makes you look good in clothes. Lets face it, what good is being able to lift big weight if we do not look good in the clothes we wear.

Functional training is also key, so all your muscles are able to work together in synergy so the muscle you add to your body become useful to you in a function way and you become more athletic in everything you do.

At #Fitforgoodnow we also deal in Metabolic training when we train your body to recover faster and make your body more efficient and recycling waste products such as lactic acid from training. So you can enhance your training and stress you muscles more for more growth.
DIET plays a very important part in your training. what are you eating when are you eating. As you get older your hormones change and your nutrition and timing and quality of nutrition have to adapt to that change. Is your nutrition adequate and specific to your training methods. Are you think about your liver health and improving that so your body can recover properly. Are you getting enough quality sleep? At fitforgoodnow we look at all those factors and monitor them along with your training and continually adapting your training to make sure you are getting optimal results.
