The Fitness Habits We Used to Swear By (And Dropped)
Barramundi and beans at 8am. Anyone else have that on their first bodybuilding meal plan? Lauren did, and at the time, swapping it for a normal breakfast felt like it might cost her progress. In this episode of The Bodybuilding Dietitians Podcast, we go back to how we each got into bodybuilding and the things we thought we had to do to get in shape. Jack talks about trying to stay lean when eating more would have helped him build muscle, Damien remembers logging over 300g of protein a day trying to eat like the pros, and Lauren explains why she used to give her glutes a full workout before leg day even started. We get into what we would do differently now, including how much more room there is to swap foods on a meal plan than we once believed. As always, we wrap up with what we each learned this week.

Nutrition Facts That Will Change How You Think About Food
Could some of your nutrition choices be based on assumptions you have never actually questioned? In this episode of The Bodybuilding Dietitians Podcast, dietitians Lauren and Jack walk through the nutrition facts that most surprise our clients, and what they mean for your everyday food choices. We cover why frozen vegetables can be just as nutritious as fresh, why feeling better without wheat does not necessarily mean gluten was the problem, and what the research on metabolism and ageing actually shows. We also compare pink salt with iodised salt and explain why pink salt’s mineral content is misleading, why eating fish does not guarantee you are getting enough omega-3, and what to check on your fish oil label. We finish on why protein takes more energy to digest than other macronutrients, rising bowel cancer rates in younger adults and the role of fibre, and supplement testing that found banned substances in products sold online in Australia. We wrap up as always with what we learned this week. Enjoying the podcast?

Ranking Fat Loss Strategies From Best to Worst
This week on the Bodybuilding Dietitians Podcast we’re ranking common fat loss strategies into a tier list. Tracking and pre-logging, mindful eating, fasting, managing food focus, protein intake, diet drinks and chewing gum, and working with a dietitian or coach. Some of what you’d expect to be S tier isn’t, and some of what gets dismissed deserves a lot more credit than it gets. We go through where each strategy actually sits, why we ranked it that way, and what to think about before you decide which ones belong in your approach. ⸻ Links & Resources Coaching Services – https://www.thebodybuildingdietitians.com/enquirenow Website – https://www.thebodybuildingdietitians.com/ Instagram The Bodybuilding Dietitians – https://www.instagram.com/thebodybuildingdietitians/?hl=en Jack Radford-Smith – https://www.instagram.com/jack.radfordsmith/?hl=en Damien Cox – https://www.instagram.com/dietitian_damiencox/?hl=en Lauren Stevens – https://www.instagram.com/thephysiquedietitian_/?hl=en ⸻

How to Actually Track Progress for Fat Loss & Muscle Gain
How do you know whether your nutrition and training plan is actually working? Scale weight can be useful, but it only tells you part of the story. Changes in training performance, measurements, progress photos, health markers and your relationship with food may reveal progress that the scale completely misses. In this episode of The Bodybuilding Dietitians Podcast, you’ll learn which metrics are most useful for fat loss and muscle gain, how to make your measurements more consistent and why relying too heavily on a single number can lead to unnecessary changes. You’ll also learn how to recognise psychological and behavioural progress, including becoming less reactive to weight fluctuations, handling unplanned meals more calmly and developing a healthier relationship with training and food. As always, we wrap up with what we learned this week. ⸻ Links & Resources Coaching Services – https://www.thebodybuildingdietitians.com/enquirenow Website – https://www.thebodybuildingdietitians.com/ Instagram The Bodybuilding Dietitians – https://www.instagram.com/thebodybuildingdietitians/?hl=en Team TBD – https://www.instagram.com/_teamtbd_/?hl=en Jack Radford-Smith – https://www.instagram.com/jack.radfordsmith/?hl=en Damien Cox – https://www.instagram.com/dietitian_damiencox/?hl=en Lauren Stevens – https://www.instagram.com/thephysiquedietitian_/?hl=en ⸻

How We Train and Eat Right Now | What's Actually Working
How do you continue making progress when you have already been training for years? In this episode of The Bodybuilding Dietitians Podcast, we share what our training and nutrition currently look like, the physique goals we are working towards and which variables we are adjusting to keep progressing. We discuss when adding more training volume may be useful, when execution and intensity deserve more attention, and why doing more work can become counterproductive if training quality or recovery begins to decline. We also compare our current approaches to nutrition, including eating without tracking, managing low appetite during a gaining phase, structuring food around early-morning training and knowing when a strategy such as fasting is no longer supporting the primary goal.

Strength and Longevity: How Lifting Extends Your Life and Healthspan
You may have started lifting to build muscle or change your physique, but the benefits of resistance training extend far beyond how you look. In this episode of The Bodybuilding Dietitians Podcast, we explain how lifting can support metabolic health, bone density, cognitive function, mental health and physical independence as you age. We also discuss how much strength training may be needed to gain meaningful health benefits and why building muscle earlier can provide a greater reserve for later in life.

The Most Overrated and Underrated Foods, Supplements and Exercises
Which popular fitness trends deserve your time and money, and which are mostly surviving on hype? In this episode, we rate some of the most discussed foods, supplements and training methods as overrated, underrated or fairly rated. We cover creatine dosage and the growing interest in its potential brain benefits, whether greens powders can replace anything meaningful in your diet and why many pre-workouts may be little more than expensive caffeine. We also discuss whole eggs, sardines, potatoes, lentils and legumes before moving into Bulgarian split squats, antagonistic supersets and forced reps. Rather than giving every topic a simple verdict, we explain when each one may be useful, when it becomes overhyped and what may provide a better return.

Macro Tracking Guide: Accuracy, Common Errors and When to Stop
In this episode of The Bodybuilding Dietitians Podcast, we explain why macro tracking is often far less precise than people assume and how to make it more useful without becoming obsessive. We cover inaccurate database entries, barcode errors, raw versus cooked weights, restaurant meal estimates, untracked bites and cooking oils, and why your calories and macros may not add up even when you appear to hit your targets perfectly. We also discuss when tracking can support fat loss, muscle gain and contest preparation, when it may begin affecting your relationship with food, and how to gradually move towards a more flexible approach.
