Whether she’s coaching clients, speaking at an event, or preparing for her next competition, her mission is simple: to show women that they don’t have to choose between living well and living strong.When she’s not lifting, coaching, or sharing real talk on social media, you’ll find her spending time with her kids, in the gym, experimenting in the kitchen, or dreaming up her next big project.Www.instagram.com/clarissa_gannonWww.facebook.com/clarissa.gannonWww.Herwellnessonline.comThe Juicy Bits:Being fit is great, but it's really about being healthy.We accept mediocrity as normal, even great, but having stomach aches, digestive problems, constipation, bloating, poor skin, and little sleep is not healthy.Bodybuilding is not the best habit for bodies. It's too extreme.For a woman vegan to build muscle, it takes eating enough food, getting good, regenerative sleep, and functional medicine pieces like gut health, hormonal balance, and reduced stress.Try: tracking food, mindfulness practices, setting boundaries, using a calendar, and self-care activities.CARBS FUEL HIGH PERFORMANCE ATHLETES. Carbs are good. PROTEIN IS FOR REPAIR..8g protein per kg of body weight is standard for muscle maintenance. Add more fitness goals and aging women.Supplements are meant TO SUPPLEMENT the diet.Women should not try to live off 1200-1300 calories per day. In order to be healthy and look good, you need to eat.EAT REAL FOOD, AND LOTS OF IT. SLEEP. REDUCE STRESS.Try vegan, but do it smart. Hire a good coach.Clarissa's favorite foods: fava bean tofu, textured pea protein, fruit, potatoes, steamed vegetables, hearts of palm pasta**The information provided on this podcast does not, and is not intended to constitute legal or medical advice; all information, content, and material on this site are for generalinformational purposes only.
