In this episode, we talk about strategies to enjoy the holidays without guilt, how to confidently attack social pressures, nutritional periodization, easy workouts when you’re short on time, what to consider when January comes, and more!

Top Takeaways:

  • How to enjoy the holidays while keeping your nutrition goals in mind
  • Workout best practices on a holiday
  • If you can’t make it to the gym on the holidays, do this instead!
  • How to mentally set yourself up for success

Today’s Questions:

  • How would you go about sticking to your diet through the holidays?
  • If I'm just trying to maintain right now, do you recommend cycling calories? Like a 5:2 split or adding 1 PSMF day per week to help ‘balance things out’?
  • What are the best ways to squeeze in a workout on a busy holiday?
  • How do you deal with eating foods prepared by other family members when staying at their house?
  • How do you deal with family/friends commenting on your nutrition choices and pushing you to ‘just have a bite, it’s the holidays’?
  • Would it be beneficial to just track calories over the holidays instead of worrying about tracking fats, carbs, and protein?
