This week's Q&A episode is packed with questions I know so many of you will relate to, from finding the best time to train, to navigating those weeks where even deciding what to eat feels like too much effort.In this episode:00:00 Introduction04:40 Is there a best time of day to work out for optimum results? 13:09 Decision fatigue - practical ways to manage your nutrition on those overwhelming weeks25:14 Struggling with motivation after a holiday - how to stay focussed as well as be kind to yourself without going into all-or-nothing mode34:26 I love reading about nutrition and diets and health. Can you recommend any good books?41:15 Last week I did a strength workout and yoga class on the same time (one was morning, the other evening). I felt some fatigue in the yoga class and some achey muscles. I guess in an ideal world I wouldn't do both on the same day but some weeks I'll need to. Any thoughts/advice so I can feel stronger in my yoga class?Nutrition resources mentioned in this episode: - Is Butter a Carb?- EIQ NutritionIf you'd like to come to my FREE online workshop on Thursday 18th June @ 730pm, you can sign up here.Recording will be sent afterwards if you can't make it live!Got a question for a future Q&A episode?
