About this episode
If you’re murky about muscle, frustrated with fat and baffled by body composition – let the expertise of strength coach and nutritionist CHARLIE THAKRAR set the record straight for you in a tidy half-hour episode of the forties formula podcast.
Covering everything from finding your “why” in wellness to busting the myth of getting “bulky” with strength training, Charlie talks us through:
• The importance of longevity training for your “old woman” body
• Understanding nutrition through the lens of nourishment and information, rather than just calories and macros
• Connecting the dots between hormones and body composition – what’s real, what’s perceived and what actually moves the needle in this stage of life
With decades of expertise in the field, Charlie understands how to present complicated concepts in fitness and nutrition with ease – leaving you with actionable tips that can get you started on a leaner body – and a healthier life – today.
