Let’s chat about some tried and true tips I use to make sure health and fitness is still a priority during the 2nd trimester of pregnancy.

Ep. 89 Nutrition for Fitness: How What You Eat Can Help You Reach Your Goals

Fit for Hiking

02/11/25 • 52 min

In this episode, we dive into the essentials of nutrition for fitness, breaking down how to eat based on your specific goals—whether that’s fat loss, muscle gain, athletic performance, or simply maintaining overall health. We cover the importance of aligning your nutrition with your training, emphasizing that fat loss requires a calorie deficit with high protein intake, while muscle gain demands a slight calorie surplus with adequate protein and carbs. For endurance athletes, proper fueling and recovery are key, and for general health, focusing on whole foods and balanced macronutrients is crucial. We also discuss how metabolic health, hormone balance, and inflammation play a role in optimizing your body’s performance. Ultimately, sustainable habits—not extreme diets—lead to long-term success!
Key Topics:
Understanding Your Fitness Goal – Aligning nutrition with fat loss, muscle gain, performance, or general health.

Fat Loss Nutrition – Sustainable calorie deficit, high protein intake, and metabolic adaptation considerations.

Muscle Gain Nutrition – Caloric surplus, protein for muscle repair, and carbohydrate support for training.

Athletic Performance Nutrition – Carbs as primary fuel, hydration and electrolytes, and recovery nutrition.

General Health & Maintenance – Whole foods focus, balanced macronutrients, and reducing processed foods.

Metabolic & Hormonal Health – Supporting thyroid function, hormone balance, and reducing inflammation.

Liver Function & Detoxification – Liver’s role in metabolism and strategies to optimize detoxification.

Blood Sugar & Insulin Resistance – Pairing carbs with protein, choosing low-glycemic foods, and meal timing.

Sustainable Eating Habits – Prioritizing long-term flexibility over restrictive dieting.

Pre- and Post-Workout Nutrition – Fueling workouts with proper macronutrients for energy and recovery.

Practical Strategies – Meal timing, structuring balanced meals, and small, sustainable lifestyle tweaks.
