Most of us want to be in good shape and improve our health span, not just our life span. In this episode, Angela talks to dietician and science educator, Holly Baxter, about the most effective ways in which you can get lean, achieve optimal health levels, and remain vibrantly full of energy in a way that is the most beneficial for your body and mind, and why excessive cardio might actually be holding you back.

KEY TAKEAWAYS
If we engage in cardio too regularly, and carry a calorie deficit, it can negatively impact the energy available for muscle recovery when we need it most.
The best way to increase lean body mass and reduce body fat is through incorporating a high protein diet and moderating caloric intake.
The latest research into fat loss seems to suggest that there are few advantages in diets that are high in carbohydrates and low in fat vs diets that are high in fat and low in carbohydrates.
Everyone is unique and has a bespoke set of requirements. The best coach or mentor will always prescribe an approach based on the individual's needs, and not a one-size-fits-all programme, as these rarely work.

BEST MOMENTS 

'I definitely had a strong focus on how to optimise my physique for performance'

'It's important to recognise that everybody has a unique preference for different foods'

'What is going to govern the rate of weight loss is the degree of calorie deficit'

'You've got to learn about your client and meet them where they are at'

ABOUT THE GUEST

Holly Baxter is a Dietitian and Science Educator that has been involved in the health and fitness industry for some 13 + years, where much of this time has been dedicated to providing her clients and followers around the world, with evidenced-based education, and to putting up the good fight against the many misconceptions surrounding food, nutrition, and exercise.

In 2011, Holly graduated Deakin University as a Food Scientist and Nutritionist and went on to complete her Master of Dietetics in 2013, and now practices as a Clinical Dietitian and Online Science Educator.

Holly's heavy involvement in sports in early life, coupled with her passion for health and nutrition, has led her to extend her skill set as a coach, on to becoming a well known author, speaker and one of the leading females in the Nutrition and Fitness industry. Holly has, and continues to participate in the sport of bodybuilding as a professional physique athlete, claiming x2 World Championship-level wins in the Natural Fitness Division.

She is also the co-founder and director of a number of health and fitness related businesses, including the renowned nutrition coaching app Carbon Diet Coach, and subscription based services, The Workout Builder, her online exercise program platform and REPs, abbreviated as Research Explained in Practical Summaries, which takes complex research and simplifies it for the average person to understand and apply.

From 2016 through 2022, Holly also helped scale her former nutrition coaching company Team Biolayne, and evidence-based supplement line Outwork Nutrition, along side former husband Dr. Layne Norton. She has more recently launched her own all female coaching business venture, Holly Baxter LLC, which focuses exclusively on the unique health related needs of women, and mission to become the global leaders in the dissemination of science based health education, specifically those of females.

“Womens Health and fitness is where my true passion lies! As a Clinical Dietitian and Coach, with first hand experience in the field as a professional athlete, it is my goal to empower my clients to achieve ultimate success through their commitment and dedication to a life of knowledge and learning."
