#70 - Healing pounds: Are they necessary and how much is too much? with Libby Wescombe and Craig McDonald

One thing I love about the pro-metabolic community is that I’ve made so many new friends.

Everyone is just so friendly and supportive, probably because they eat carbs and sugar 🤣

I’ve actually got this great chat group going in Whatsapp with @libbywescombe, @amykatebowe and @leilalutz.

I've had all of them on the podcast so if you haven't listened to their episodes I recommend you do.

They’re not only super knowledgeable but just awesome women.

We pretty much chat daily and I often hear Libby and Craig have little rants about the same things which makes me laugh 🤣

But in all seriousness I love how passionate and knowledgeable they are about all things training and body composition change.

One thing I hear both of them talk about quite a lot is all the women that come into their programs who have gained a lot of weight after transitioning to a pro-metabolic diet because they believe they need healing pounds.

So I thought I ‘d get them on to talk about healing pounds and more specifically:

➡️What are healing pounds?

➡️When are they necessary?

➡️When are they unnecessary and how can you limit fat gain when shifting to a pro-metabolic diet

➡️Why eating more isn’t always the answer

➡️Why tracking your food intake is so important if you want to limit fat gain

➡️How to shift your mindset around food tracking if you find it restrictive or can’t be consistent

➡️They type of training you should be focusing on if you want to limit fat gain

➡️The misconception that women will look too muscular with weight training

➡️One of the biggest reasons women aren’t making progress in the gym

➡️Why standardising reps is important

➡️How walking/aerobic activity helps recovery and the type of cardio every woman should be doing daily

➡️Why it’s not a one-size-fits-all approach and where many women go wrong when shifting to a pro-metabolic diet

So if you’re a woman who’s struggled with fat gain when moving to a pro-metabolic diet you’ll love this episode.
