Hello and welcome to this episode of the ESG Fitness Podcast.

Over the last few weeks, I have taken on a few one-to-one clients, four, to be exact.

And this isn't something that I do that often because I'm usually so focused on commit to six,

but I always like to keep sort of 10 to 12 one-to-one clients, partly so I don't miss it and partly so I just

don't stay out of touch, you know? So what's been quite interesting is that for a variety of

reasons, that I am about to tell you, I've actually put all of them on low or at least low-er

carb diets. I guess more to the point it's a low

starchy carb diet because I'm a big advocate of eating a lot of fruit and veg

which will likely put them over that kind of traditional 50 to 100 grams

for low carb kind of barrier. And so the reasons are as I said various I'm going to go through each of them. And so the reasons are, as I said, various. I'm going to go through each of them.

One of these clients is PCOS, no, has PCOS. Yeah. So one of the clients is a woman who has PCOS.

We will be focusing primarily on resistance training, a little bit of hit training in there as well, and a

modified three to one diet using my three to one method, but making it a lower carbohydrate diet.

Mostly this is to manage hunger, which always ramps up during her previous fat loss attempts,

partly due to a cardiac focus,

but also knowing that lower carb diets tend to increase satiety.

This is probably going to be a very good approach.

The other reason I'm going to come on to a little bit later,

there's some research around PCOS, insulin

resistance and actually better body composition on lower carbohydrate diets. The second client that I took

on is pre-diabetic. We will be focusing on a very similar approach to the one I just described,

plus some conscious effort to walk after larger meals to improve glucose clearance rates.
