There is so much conflicting information and just plain misinformation out there that it’s difficult to separate truth from fiction when it comes to proper nutrition, losing weight, maintaining weight loss, gaining lean muscle, improving energy and, in short, looking better and feeling better.

We don’t believe in fad diets or starvation diets. We believe in eating real food, whole foods, and we know from personal experience that you can be successful in your quest to improve your health and look the way you want to with proper nutrition because we help people do it with our TakeDown LifeStyle and TakeDown Challenge nutrition programs.

There are 3 key steps that you must take for proper nutrition in order to get the results you want, and Stacey Garcia, Nutrition Director for Arena Fitness, explains step one here; Balancing your Macronutrients.

What are macronutrients?

Protein. Fat. Carbohydrate.

Each has an important function and you must properly balance all three with EVERY MEAL in order to optimize your nutrition and your results.

If you are already invested in exercise, if you are invested in personal training or group fitness, or even if you work out on your own, you will NOT be able to achieve the health and body composition changes you want (fat loss, muscle gain, performance improvement) if your nutrition is not in line.

Please watch this video and take this first step to heart. We will be sharing the next two steps very soon! As always, please let us know if you need any help by calling us at 818-906-3030 or submitting the form below. Happy Thanksgiving!
