Hi friends! This episode is about optimizing body composition, fat loss, protein intake and training with Holly Baxter, APD. Holly Baxter is an accredited practicing dietician (APD), competitive bodybuilder, fitness and nutrition educator, and coach. In this episode, Holly discusses her experience as an athlete and competitive bodybuilder. She also opens up about her struggles with mental health, her battle with an eating disorder, and the important steps she’s taken in her road to recovery. From there, she explains how she would design a nutrition and training program for a female client wanting to improve her physique through the addition of lean muscle and loss of body fat. She explains expectations for gaining muscle and the value of a “reverse diet” for maintaining weight loss, and she shares some female-specific training considerations such as programming, reps, volume, and more.
