Summary

On today's episode, we had Aram Gregorian on the podcast. Aram flew all the way from Greenwich, Connecticut to be on the Key Nutrition Podcast and we could not be any more grateful.

Aram has been in the trenches with all things fitness for years now as a personal trainer. I love talking to people who are still training one-on-one because they are still face-to-face with clients every single day. The insight you get talking to clients for a whole hour as you work them out is something I deeply miss about personal training. He shared a lot about that work and what lead him to start his own nutrition coaching gig as well.

We discussed how metabolic adaptation works, broken down in layman's terms and ways you can avoid that. Aram draws on a whiteboard for each of his clients how the metabolism works, and how to avoid negative adaptations from happening. Think slowing down of the metabolism.

We also discussed how as coaches in the industry, we are the first line of defense in health care. It's not Dr’s or specialist, it's us trainers and coaches doing the right work to make sure people aren’t ending up in the Dr’s office in the first place from bad health marker or obesity-related issues. He takes it very serious, as do I, and enjoyed his insight on that subject.

He touched on fad diets and just how negative the repercussions are effecting nutrition the space. Which ties back into the metabolic adaptation subject beautifully. You are worth doing this the right way, and this episode is going to inspire you to believe that!
