How do Olympic athletes achieve peak performance while optimizing their body composition? The 2024 Paris Olympics are in the final stretch this week, so we're celebrating with this special themed episode!

Olympic athletes (and most athletes) strategically cycle their nutrition to achieve the targeted goal at the targeted time.

We're applying this concept to YOUR goals (on YOUR schedule), using the engineering principle of Optimization Theory. You'll learn how to use nutritional periodization to build more muscle, lose fat, prevent plateaus, and make your diet more effective and sustainable—and then optimize it for your unique circumstances.

If you're tired of yo-yo dieting or struggling to improve your body composition, this episode will show you how to engineer your nutrition like an Olympian preparing for Paris 2024.

Main takeaways:

• The cycle includes Building, Maintenance, Leaning Out, and Recovery phases, each with specific nutritional focuses.
• Optimization Theory allows for continuous fine-tuning based on individual responses and data.
• This approach not only leads to physical changes but can transform your relationship with food and your body.
