If Macros and Measurements Didn't Exist, How Would You Eat?

2/12/2020

I love posing this question to my clients to challenge their belief patterns & habits during and after strict dieting phases w meticulous macro counting & measuring


We are taught to believe that we can only achieve results & thrive if we track everything or follow a strict diet


But how crazy to think about a reality without such standards or expectations


One where we have to really tune into our own body


One where restriction doesn’t feel restrictive & food isn’t demonized & eating is not calculated


Let me be clear


I am NOT suggesting that this would be “better” or “worse” especially for competitors


I am just proposing a consideration for your behaviors so you can see where they’re really stemming from (outside of just following plan) & how it might be different if your reality was different


You can’t “unsee” macros, lol


Once you know rice is a carb you pretty much identify it as such forever


BUT what I’m getting at is; by creating SUCH a stark contrast in your mind, you can actually learn how to better understand, listen, honor & love your body


This doesn’t mean you need to throw out the food scale, delete your macro tracking app or rip up your meal plan


But imagine this alternate reality in your mind & what would guide your choices
Athletes & day to day people can benefit from knowing what they‘re eating & how much of it they‘re eating


HOWEVER


It should not come at the expense of your ability to be mindful, conscious, & considerate of your body’s needs


As a competitor, you’re gunna feel all sorts of signals from your body regardless of what phase you’re in


Prep? Hunger
Off season? Satiety


And, you’ll probably ignore these cues & build up a level of mental immunity to them


Which is beneficial from an elite perspective of doing what’s necessary to improve


But how can we combat the likely outcome of disconnecting from our body due to us ignoring body signals? & then not knowing what to do when we have a slight taste of freedom (hello post show)


Mindful decision making, conscious consideration of behaviors, & habit evaluations


Here are three videos I think can help you begin implementing this now 🙂
