Summary

This week we are joined by EC Synkowski, a Certified CrossFit Level 4 Coach with an MS in Human Nutrition and the founder of OptimizeMe Nutrition. EC is the creator of the 800g Challenge, a research-based nutrition program that focuses on optimizing fruit and veggie intake in an easy and accessible way. We chat with EC about the story and science behind this program, how she uses macro counting with herself and her clients to create a strong nutritional foundation, why we shouldn’t fear fruit, and how to get started with the 800g Challenge if you want to give it a shot.
