Description
In today’s episode, I interview fitness coach and researcher Laurin Conlin on the concepts of rigid and flexible restraint when dieting.
Laurin is an IFBB Pro Bikini competitor and the owner of Team LoCoFit. She earned her B.S. from Florida State University and her M.S. from the University of South Florida, both in Exercise Science. She continues to serve as a research assistant to Dr. Bill Campbell’s Physique Enhancement lab at USF.
As part of her Master’s degree, she conducted a study on the effects of following a rigid meal plan versus a more flexible macronutrient-based diet on fat loss outcomes.
In this conversation, we covered a variety of thought-provoking topics, including, but not limited to the following:
What’s the definition of rigid and flexible restraint?
In Laurin’s study, which was more effective for fat loss: the rigid meal plan or the more flexible, macro-based diet?
How can a flexibly restrained mindset benefit you in pursuit of your fitness goals?
What are Laurin’s practical tips to adopt this mindset?
How can you take this flexible approach during the winter holidays to make the most of this time while still making progress towards your goals?
