 I don’t know your goals, I don’t know your body type, and I don’t know your activity level. I am not a doctor nor am I a dietician, therefore I cannot prescribe any specific diet nor do I want to. Ain't nobody got time fo dat! However, what I do want to do is shed some light and bust some myths on the topic of nutrition in this 3 part series.
By the end of these blog posts, I hope that all of our readers will understand just how individualized a nutrition plan can be but also how simplistic. This post in particular is intended to get the right foods on your plate. We can talk about calories till the grass-fed cows come home but unless those calories are coming from nutritious food sources, any other conversation is pointless. At Axistence Athletics when our clients ask us how they should eat, we like to use the phrase “Nutrient Dense, Toxin Free”. Whether you’re Paleo or Vegan, Ornish or Atkins, we think pretty much anyone can get behind those 4 words. Essentially all we’re saying is that folks should try to choose the most nutrient dense sources of their calories and try to avoid toxic ones. Makes sense right?

 This is not just a catchy tagline, but a question you should be asking yourself. You show up at the gym 3-5 a week and put in a good effort, your movements are constantly varied, functional and intense. You have a solid strength program laid out, 5 x 5 back squat on Monday, deadlifts on Thursday and bench press and weighted pullups every day in between. Any day you're touching a barbell is a good day! How well has all of that barbell training carried over to your daily life? "Oh dude, I'm stronger, looking jacked and feeling confident as hell!" Cool, how about coming over and helping me move into my new apartment next week?
