muffintop-less:

I get these questions just about every day.. so I thought I’d share the answers for those of you who were curious, but never sent an ‘ask’ (these are now in my FAQ page as well) =)

“What is your opinion on P90x/Insanity/30DayShred?”

I’ve personally never done any of them.. but I’ve read and seen enough to know in general what they consist of. My answer would be… It depends on your goals! I think any program that gets people up and moving is great. But there is no miracle workout DVD that is going to create a goddess-body without proper nutrition and resistance training. If you enjoy the workouts, great! I have nothing against any of these programs. But like I said… it depends on your goals.

“I am x height and x weight.. how many calories should I be consuming?”

It depends on a variety of factors, including your activity level, age, gender, lean body mass, etc. I cannot and will not recommend a specific number of calories for anyone. If you want an accurate number of how many calories you should be consuming, it would be best to consult with a dietician or someone who specializes in that.
