In this episode, I dive into Martin MacDonald's aggressive dieting calculator and how it predicts fat loss based on key metrics like body fat percentage, height, weight, age and activity level. I break down how different levels of aggressive dieting impact fat loss, muscle retention, and motivation.Using a hypothetical case study, I walk through the process of determining potential fat loss per week, comparing moderate and aggressive approaches. I also discuss my own experience with rapid fat loss, why shorter dieting phases can be more effective, and how strategic refeeds help maintain long-term success.If you want me to run your numbers and create a personalized fat loss prediction, send me your weight, height, body fat percentage, activity levels, and sleep data—I'll record a video breakdown just for you!Know someone who would benefit from this approach?

In this episode, I'll be sharing my experience attending the Aggressive Dieting Seminar in Las Vegas. I'll talk about the evidence-based approach presented by Martin MacDonald, the nutritionist who conducted the seminar, and how it challenges traditional beliefs about weight loss. I'll also share my own experience with aggressive dieting and how it has helped my clients kickstart their weight loss journeys. Plus, I'll explain the importance of maintenance and habit change for long-term weight management.Aggressive dieting can be an effective approach for weight loss, especially for individuals with a significant amount of weight to lose.The approach focuses on reducing fat mass and improving health markers, such as hormone profiles and insulin levels.Maintenance and habit change are crucial for long-term weight management.The aggressive dieting approach may not be suitable for everyone, including children, individuals with eating disorders or health issues, and athletes.The approach involves a period of calorie restriction followed by a refeed to restore glycogen levels.Muscle loss can occur during aggressive dieting, but it can be regained easily once in maintenance.Individualized plans and coaching are important for success with aggressive dieting.The approach highlights the importance of accurate and consistent tracking of food intake.Aggressive dieting can help individuals stay motivated by seeing faster results.Maintenance is a crucial phase after aggressive dieting to maintain weight loss and establish healthy habits.Reach out to us about finding success for yourself with Aggressive Dieting: Individualized Plans and Coaching-fill out the coaching application!Sound Bites"Aggressive dieting can help kickstart weight loss and create a better relationship with food.""Aggressive dieting can improve health markers, such as hormone profiles and insulin levels.""Aggressive dieting can be motivating for individuals with a significant amount of weight to lose."Thank you so much for listening, please share with a friend and subscribe so you don't miss an episode!Free Macro/Calorie Calculator https://plan.katalystfitness.net Coaching Process Video and booking link https://www.menopotmeltdown.com/mmmcoachingapp Now accepting clients, use the link to apply for 1:1 coaching:https://www.menopotmeltdown.com/mmmcoachingappFree No BS Menopause Secrets Facebook group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/kathykatalyst/?ref=shareFor all my social links: https://bit.ly/kathykatalystDo you have a question that you would like answered on the show?

Famed UK clinical nutrition scientist, philosopher, and April's apparent new boyfriend, Martin MacDonald is back on the show. This time we are going into detail about his evidence based Aggressive Diet Program to talk about how he is using science to prove you can lose a LOT of fat in a relatively short period of time. In the process of nerding out about nutrition we get sidetracked several times by descriptions of our private WhatsApp conversations with Martin and his girlfriend Alex and some of their hilarious stories about his jealousy kink. If you have an upcoming Lifestyle event and need to lean out in the safest, fastest way possible, your going to love this episode. It's long but absolutely worth it.

Nutrition Scientist (and philosopher according to April), Martin MacDonald, joins the Naughty Gym Show to discuss the intersection of nutrition, fitness, sex, and the occassional foray into religion. Scott and Martin low key form a bromance and April gets mad when Martin comes to Scott's defense about Diet Dr. Pepper. This was such a fun episode and it lasts about 90 minutes. But we talked for 2 hours and had to edit some great stuff out. Enjoy!

Today I have the pleasure of speaking with Martin Macdonald, founder of MNU (Mac Nutrition Uni). We talk about what makes MNU different from other courses, why it occupies a very special place in the “nutrition education” space, and frankly why it does so better than anyone else. Am I biased? You bet your ass I am

Aggressive dieting often has a negative connotation, but does it actually work for weight loss and muscle maintenance?  To delve into this topic and other aspects of nutrition science, I interview Martin MacDonald in this episode. Martin is a Clinical Performance Nutritionist, a senior lecturer at the Mac-Nutrition Uni (an evidence-based online nutrition course), and a renowned speaker in the realm of nutrition science. With his deep knowledge of nutrition science and experience in the field, Martin shares his perspectives on dieting and nutrition in this episode. In our conversation, Martin and I discuss . . . The concept of aggressive dieting and the evidence in its favor for weight loss and maintenance The impact of traditional calorie-restricted diets on muscle loss (and how to recover it) How to calculate your maximum calorie deficit The challenges of aggressive dieting and how to adopt a flexible approach The myths around muscle loss during weight loss and the reality behind it The negative effects of aggressive dieting and calorie deficits on bone health, fertility, and obsessive tendencies Misconceptions about maintaining a larger calorie deficit The benefits of aggressive dieting for developing better eating habits The concept of "sugar addiction" and strategies to diminish the desire for high-sugar and high-fat foods And more . . . So, if you're looking to understand aggressive dieting better and explore the field of nutrition science, be sure to listen to this conversation with Martin MacDonald! --- Timestamps: 0:00 - Please leave a review of the show wherever you listen to podcasts and make sure to subscribe! 3:38 - What is aggressive dieting? 21:54 - Where can people find your calculator? 29:10 - Can an aggressive diet help your relationship with food? 32:39 - Shop Legion Supplements Here: https://buylegion.com/ and use coupon code MUSCLE to save 20% or get double reward points! 40:35 - What is mac-nutrition uni? 45:17 - Who is Mac Nutrition Uni aimed for?
