The Tango 1 Podcast

In this episode of the Tango1 Podcast, I sit down with Danielle Smith, owner of Garage Gym and a certified nutrition coach, alongside Austin Tilson, the director of Garage Gym. Together, we dive deep into the essence of the 6WT not just a weight loss competition, but a comprehensive fat loss approach designed to change body composition. We discuss the misconceptions around weight loss vs. fat loss, the benefits of lifting the right amount of weight, and why someone who's lean might experience bloating differently. We also explore how newcomers who join the 6WT can benefit from the Shred track, often considered the 101 of nutrition. If you're curious about sustainable fat loss, understanding your body better, and improving your overall health, this conversation is a must-listen! Topics Covered: - The difference between weight loss and fat loss - The impact of lifting weights for body composition - How lean individuals experience body changes - Why the Shred track is ideal for beginners Connect With Me:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/tango1_tony/?hl=enLinkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/tango1tony/#Tango1Podcast #fatloss #6WT #garagegym #nutritioncoach #bodycomposition #canada
