EP: 51 How to Eat to Look Toned Over 40: The Metabolic Way to Build Muscle and Burn Fat
Today’s episode breaks down exactly how to eat to look toned over 40 and why the next two months are the perfect time to increase your calories to maintenance levels. If you’ve been training hard but still feel soft, tired, or stuck, this episode will help you understand why your body needs more fuel, not less, especially in midlife.
We discuss how to estimate your maintenance calories, how to structure your meals to support muscle growth, and how to fuel your body before and after workouts. Additionally, we explore why carbs and protein are essential for women seeking a sculpted look. I also explain why creatine is one of the best tools for women over 40 and how to start using it.
