The fitness industry or “diet culture” has done quite a bang up job of making us feel that if only we could find our magic meal plan - we would FINALLY have the results we’ve been searching for.  Our nutritional “holy grail”.

Before we dive into the Street Parking recommendations for nutrition - we thought it might be helpful to arm you with a series of 4 questions you can ask yourself about ANY diet or nutritional approach - to evaluate if it’s right for you at EVERY level (read that as…not just if it will “work” in the short term).

Finding an approach that is sustainable for YOUR WHOLE LIFE is key to your success long term and your ability to maintain the results from improving your eating habits.  And keep in mind that what is sustainable for YOU is not the same as what is sustainable for someone else.

Your current life stage, schedule, food preferences and availability will all play a role in what you find you are able to sustain.  And this will change throughout your life!

However - don’t assume that eating healthy needs  to be complicated, expensive, or time consuming.  In fact, the opposite is true and with an approach of making small - SIMPLE changes over time - something you thought might not be sustainable can become daily habit.

Next Up: The Street Parking Nutrition Guidance…..from the most simple tips to finding balance, to a no scale measuring technique, and finding and practicing precision.

Why do most diets and nutrition plans fail? For either one or all of these reasons: they’re too strict, unrealistic, and paint a picture that it’s gotta be “all or nothing”. The proof we’ve seen in ourselves and within the community is that a simple approach is what drives consistency. Listen to our latest podcast as @fearlessmiranda and @molly_vollmer chat through real life nutrition.

Don’t look for the reasons you “can’t” commit to being your healthiest self NOW rather than later. And while you’re at it, don’t let anyone tell you Die Hard isn’t a Christmas movie.

Can you gain aesthetics, fitness, or consistency without them???

We have some thoughts...so

Great programming requires both science and art. It's a balance of understanding movement, intensity, and the mental side with creatively and elegantly designing workouts that deliver real results and allow for engagement and consistency.

And I love it.

Spent over an hour today talking about variance. Why it's critical to well rounded - "ready for anything" - fitness, and how you can start to look at your workouts through that lens. True variance cannot be "random", but must be carefully crafted to fill in gaps, expand the margins of our experience, and (as best as possible) prevent bias in any one area.

Load, reps, time, equipment, scheme, movements and movement combinations - all like ingredients for a recipe. It all boils down to - what are you trying to make?
