Description

Ashleigh is a health coach, podcast host, and author with more than ten years of experience. 

She is a former nationally ranked natural figure competitor, and has competed in powerlifting and CrossFit. 

She holds a CrossFit Strongman Certification, CrossFit Olympic Lifting Certification, Primal Blueprint Coaching Certification, Precision Nutrition Level 1 Certification, and a Certification in Applied Women’s Physiology and Training, and is one of the leading authorities in understanding the nutrient density of animal protein – her first book, It Takes Guts, is all about the health benefits of organ meats. Her latest cookbook is called Carnivore-ish.

She’s developed a range of coaching programs and workshops aimed at improving physical strength, overall wellness, and a deeper understanding of our bodies and optimal health, including her Jacked Back pull-up program, Muscle Science for Women, and the Strength Training for Women Specialist Certification for coaches.

 

Here are some of the things we talked about in today’s podcast: 

 

·      Why we need to avoid restrictive diets, chronic cardio, and overtraining to maintain hormonal balance and optimal health.

·      Focusing on minimum effective dose and efficient training to achieve desired results without punishing the body.

·      The cultural pressure for women to be small and compact can create barriers to eating more meat and protein-rich foods.

·      The marketing and messaging around food often promote low-calorie, plant-based options as healthy, but these may not be nutritionally well-rounded or satiating.

·      And much more.
