In this episode, Rachel chats about the benefits of cyclical keto and carb cycling, how to correct form for online clients, why protein is ultimately the most crucial macronutrient no matter what diet protocol is followed, and more!
“The more metabolically flexible you are, the easier it is for you to consume carbs and use those for fuel and also to be able to use fat and ketones for fuel. Metabolic flexibility is your ability to efficiently shift back and forth between these different fuel sources when they're warranted.” Rachel Gregory
