Wits & Weights | Fat Loss, Nutrition, & Strength Training for Lifters Ep 75: How to FINALLY End the Extreme Yo-Yo Diet Cycle with Lisa Franz
Today I’m excited to welcome nutrition expert Lisa Franz to the show. Lisa and I met through podcasting and the nutrition coaching industry, and I had the pleasure of recording an interview on her show, The Nutrition and Life Podcast.
Lisa and I will discuss the importance of breaking the extreme diet cycle, and how to find a sustainable and balanced approach to nutrition, training, and lifestyle. Lisa will reveal how to maintain a healthy lifestyle as we age, strategies for being consistent while traveling, and principles of effective training. She will also share her personal experiences and insights on how to create a balanced life without feeling guilty, deprived, or sacrificing your well-being.
Lisa has a master's in Exercise Science, Health Promotion, and Nutrition and is the CEO and founder of Nutrition Coaching and Life. She's also the host of The Nutrition and Life Podcast.
Lisa teaches people to navigate their own nutrition so that they know how much and what to eat, whether they want to lose weight, gain muscle, or recomp. She believes that learning to work nutrition around your life is one of the most important aspects of this journey. Nutrition should enhance one's life, not make it harder!
