1 00:00:01,680 --> 00:00:05,280 Speaker 1: Hi, welcome back to Bounce Forward with me, Tip Haul. 2 00:00:05,680 --> 00:00:08,520 Speaker 1: I'd like to acknowledge the traditional Caustonians of the land 3 00:00:08,560 --> 00:00:12,160 Speaker 1: in which I'm recording this podcast. The wereundary people of 4 00:00:12,200 --> 00:00:16,080 Speaker 1: the cooler nation. I pay my respects to elders past 5 00:00:16,320 --> 00:00:22,560 Speaker 1: and present. What are macros so? Macros are a food 6 00:00:22,560 --> 00:00:27,000 Speaker 1: and nutrition term short for macro nutrients, and they provide 7 00:00:27,000 --> 00:00:30,480 Speaker 1: the bulk of energy in our diets. So macro nutrients, 8 00:00:30,560 --> 00:00:34,720 Speaker 1: there are three of them. There are carbohydrates, proteins, and fats. 9 00:00:35,320 --> 00:00:40,280 Speaker 1: Carbohydrates function primarily as the source of energy in our bodies, 10 00:00:40,360 --> 00:00:42,760 Speaker 1: and they're broken down to glucose, which is used as 11 00:00:42,840 --> 00:00:48,640 Speaker 1: fuel in our cells. Common sauces are rice, wheat, oats, fruits, veggies, legumes, 12 00:00:49,159 --> 00:00:52,400 Speaker 1: even some sugary foods. The types of carbohydrates can be 13 00:00:52,440 --> 00:00:56,720 Speaker 1: simple sugars or complex starch and fiber and complex carbohydrates 14 00:00:56,720 --> 00:01:01,480 Speaker 1: are generally more nutritious, and they provide sustained and contain fiber, 15 00:01:01,680 --> 00:01:04,959 Speaker 1: which is really really important. Then we have our proteins, 16 00:01:05,360 --> 00:01:09,640 Speaker 1: which are essential for building and repairing tissues, making enzymes 17 00:01:09,640 --> 00:01:13,440 Speaker 1: and hormones, and supporting immune function. They're made up of 18 00:01:13,480 --> 00:01:16,760 Speaker 1: amino acids, which are the building blocks of our bodies. 19 00:01:17,040 --> 00:01:18,920 Speaker 2: So common sauces, your. 20 00:01:18,720 --> 00:01:23,679 Speaker 1: Fish, eggs, dairy products, legumes, nuts, seeds, soy products, and 21 00:01:23,720 --> 00:01:30,399 Speaker 1: they're super important because different proteins provide different combinations of 22 00:01:30,400 --> 00:01:33,479 Speaker 1: amino acids, so very diet is so important. That's why 23 00:01:33,520 --> 00:01:36,320 Speaker 1: I can't eat the same thing every day. Then we 24 00:01:36,400 --> 00:01:40,240 Speaker 1: have our fats, our beautiful fats, which are so important 25 00:01:40,280 --> 00:01:41,039 Speaker 1: to our diets. 26 00:01:41,160 --> 00:01:42,880 Speaker 2: We don't want a fat free diet. 27 00:01:43,200 --> 00:01:45,760 Speaker 1: And the functions of fats and the sauces, they're really 28 00:01:45,760 --> 00:01:52,440 Speaker 1: important because they absorb fat soluble vitamins ad K, protecting 29 00:01:52,600 --> 00:01:55,640 Speaker 1: organs and maintaining cell membranes. They also play a role 30 00:01:55,960 --> 00:02:01,760 Speaker 1: in hormone production, really important for your hormones. Sauces like oils, butter, nuts, seeds, avocados, 31 00:02:01,800 --> 00:02:05,720 Speaker 1: and fatty fish are all really important. And fats can 32 00:02:05,760 --> 00:02:11,040 Speaker 1: be saturated or unsaturated, mono unsaturated, and polly unsaturated or 33 00:02:11,080 --> 00:02:15,200 Speaker 1: trans fats. Now, unsaturated fats are generally considered healthier, while 34 00:02:15,240 --> 00:02:21,399 Speaker 1: trans fats should be limited, So balancing these macro nutrients 35 00:02:21,400 --> 00:02:23,880 Speaker 1: are really important for overall health. You want to make 36 00:02:23,919 --> 00:02:26,400 Speaker 1: sure that you're getting your proteins, your carbs, your fats. 37 00:02:26,400 --> 00:02:29,359 Speaker 1: You don't want to be on a diet that cuts 38 00:02:29,360 --> 00:02:32,040 Speaker 1: out fats or limits carbohydrates. 39 00:02:32,080 --> 00:02:34,160 Speaker 2: They're all very important for performance. 40 00:02:34,800 --> 00:02:38,080 Speaker 1: So and then you've got your micro nutrients, which are 41 00:02:38,120 --> 00:02:41,320 Speaker 1: your vitamins, which are also very important. So when people 42 00:02:41,360 --> 00:02:47,480 Speaker 1: are talking about macros, that's what they're talking about. I 43 00:02:47,600 --> 00:02:51,400 Speaker 1: just wanted to chat about one other term that is 44 00:02:51,440 --> 00:02:56,360 Speaker 1: often misunderstood, and that is hypertrophy. It's thrown around in 45 00:02:56,400 --> 00:02:59,840 Speaker 1: the fitness industry and some people like, what is hypertrophy? 46 00:03:00,400 --> 00:03:04,360 Speaker 1: So hypertrophy workouts are designed to increase the size and 47 00:03:04,400 --> 00:03:08,640 Speaker 1: the strength of your muscles. And during a hypertrophy session, 48 00:03:09,080 --> 00:03:13,320 Speaker 1: you focus on increasing your time under tension, so completing 49 00:03:13,560 --> 00:03:16,520 Speaker 1: the high number of repetitions with the correct form to 50 00:03:16,680 --> 00:03:22,240 Speaker 1: challenge your muscles and encourage growth. You know, these workouts 51 00:03:22,240 --> 00:03:28,040 Speaker 1: can follow different structures including supersets, tri sets, pyramid sets, circuits, burnouts. 52 00:03:28,080 --> 00:03:31,280 Speaker 1: You know, there's so many different types of strength training, 53 00:03:31,600 --> 00:03:34,080 Speaker 1: but the goal is to build muscular strength, and you 54 00:03:34,160 --> 00:03:38,920 Speaker 1: typically use heavier weights and complete less repetitions. With hypertrophy training, 55 00:03:38,960 --> 00:03:43,320 Speaker 1: the goal is to complete more repetitions using lighter weights. 56 00:03:43,360 --> 00:03:47,840 Speaker 1: So hypertrophy is more reps lighter weight and people often 57 00:03:48,040 --> 00:03:54,200 Speaker 1: do confuse that with more strength training, which is the 58 00:03:54,320 --> 00:03:57,680 Speaker 1: less reps and heavier weights, And you know, you've got 59 00:03:57,720 --> 00:04:01,200 Speaker 1: to think toning when people talk about high pertrophy. There's 60 00:04:01,240 --> 00:04:05,080 Speaker 1: a lot of factors that affect hypertrophy. So there's progressive overload. 61 00:04:05,120 --> 00:04:08,600 Speaker 1: You continuously want to increase the load and the stress 62 00:04:08,640 --> 00:04:12,000 Speaker 1: placed on muscles during training, So increase the weights, increase 63 00:04:12,040 --> 00:04:16,800 Speaker 1: the repetitions, increase the sets. Stimulate hypertrophy, it's really important. 64 00:04:17,080 --> 00:04:20,520 Speaker 1: Then you've got nutrition. You want adequate protein intake to 65 00:04:20,600 --> 00:04:24,400 Speaker 1: make sure that the muscle's repairing and growing. Rest and 66 00:04:24,440 --> 00:04:28,080 Speaker 1: recovery is really important. You want muscles they need time 67 00:04:28,120 --> 00:04:30,000 Speaker 1: to repair and grow, so you need to take some 68 00:04:30,080 --> 00:04:34,279 Speaker 1: time off and have proper sleep, proper rest days, recovery techniques, stretching, 69 00:04:34,320 --> 00:04:36,880 Speaker 1: foam rolling, all those are really important. Then you've got 70 00:04:36,880 --> 00:04:41,719 Speaker 1: training volume and frequency. The total amount of work performed, sets, reps, weight, 71 00:04:42,040 --> 00:04:45,920 Speaker 1: how often muscles are trained can impact hypertrophy. Both high 72 00:04:46,000 --> 00:04:49,240 Speaker 1: volume training and frequency play roles in muscle growth, so 73 00:04:49,320 --> 00:04:52,040 Speaker 1: you really want to make sure that you're nailing those things. 74 00:04:52,279 --> 00:04:53,760 Speaker 2: And then there's genetics as well. 75 00:04:55,440 --> 00:04:59,479 Speaker 1: Everybody is different, so some people gain, you know, tone 76 00:04:59,560 --> 00:05:02,960 Speaker 1: up and or gain muscle mass quickly or you know, 77 00:05:03,120 --> 00:05:06,000 Speaker 1: less quickly. We're all different. You do have to take 78 00:05:06,040 --> 00:05:09,560 Speaker 1: that into account. But the benefits of hypertrophy training are 79 00:05:09,839 --> 00:05:13,880 Speaker 1: the increased muscle mass, which enhances a physical appearance and 80 00:05:13,920 --> 00:05:19,159 Speaker 1: your body composition, improved strength, that metabolic boost, and that 81 00:05:19,279 --> 00:05:23,719 Speaker 1: after burn effect, and then the functional benefits of enhance 82 00:05:23,839 --> 00:05:28,719 Speaker 1: muscle strength and endurance. Overall, that's hypertrophy. And then just 83 00:05:28,720 --> 00:05:31,360 Speaker 1: when I'm talking about hypertrophy, something else popped into my brain, 84 00:05:31,360 --> 00:05:33,960 Speaker 1: and that's DOMS. People are often like, what are doms? 85 00:05:34,360 --> 00:05:38,479 Speaker 1: That's delayed on set muscle soreness. Okay, so this is 86 00:05:38,520 --> 00:05:42,560 Speaker 1: a term more likely you hear after doing a session. 87 00:05:43,560 --> 00:05:46,040 Speaker 1: It hits you about twenty four to seventy two hours 88 00:05:46,080 --> 00:05:47,440 Speaker 1: after a workout. 89 00:05:47,839 --> 00:05:50,839 Speaker 2: And it's often It often. 90 00:05:50,560 --> 00:05:53,279 Speaker 1: Happens if you've tried a new training style or dialed 91 00:05:53,360 --> 00:05:56,560 Speaker 1: up the intensity on your fitness journey. You know, So 92 00:05:56,640 --> 00:06:00,640 Speaker 1: keep in mind that you've done an amazing workout and 93 00:06:01,120 --> 00:06:04,240 Speaker 1: you're going to experience a little bit of muscle soreness, 94 00:06:04,839 --> 00:06:06,440 Speaker 1: and domes happen. 95 00:06:06,920 --> 00:06:08,680 Speaker 2: They're a good they're a good thing. 96 00:06:08,920 --> 00:06:11,120 Speaker 1: So you know, when you do your squats and then 97 00:06:11,160 --> 00:06:12,880 Speaker 1: all of a sudden, you get doms in your legs 98 00:06:12,880 --> 00:06:14,000 Speaker 1: and you go to go to the toilet and you 99 00:06:14,040 --> 00:06:15,279 Speaker 1: squat down to go on the loom. 100 00:06:15,080 --> 00:06:17,720 Speaker 2: And you go, oh, there's my session. I can feel it. 101 00:06:18,279 --> 00:06:20,640 Speaker 2: That's a good sign. So things you can do. 102 00:06:20,800 --> 00:06:24,400 Speaker 1: You can foam roll, you can you know, deep tissue 103 00:06:24,680 --> 00:06:29,159 Speaker 1: massage with a tennis ball, you know, sauna, cold ice bath. 104 00:06:29,480 --> 00:06:32,520 Speaker 1: You can just have a hot bath with EPs and salts. 105 00:06:32,680 --> 00:06:36,200 Speaker 1: That's really great one or a cold shower. And eat 106 00:06:36,800 --> 00:06:40,599 Speaker 1: eat food, carbohydrates, protein, so good for the recovery of 107 00:06:40,600 --> 00:06:41,400 Speaker 1: those muscles. 108 00:06:42,279 --> 00:06:43,200 Speaker 2: It really does help. 109 00:06:43,279 --> 00:06:46,160 Speaker 1: I've seen some people be a bit restrictive around their 110 00:06:46,200 --> 00:06:48,960 Speaker 1: training and then they have really bad recoveries where they 111 00:06:48,960 --> 00:06:53,039 Speaker 1: get more severe doms. And if they're restricting, then they 112 00:06:53,120 --> 00:06:53,800 Speaker 1: need to feed. 113 00:06:53,880 --> 00:06:54,640 Speaker 2: They need to eat. 114 00:06:54,720 --> 00:06:57,960 Speaker 1: You need to recover your muscles with good nutrition afterwards 115 00:06:58,000 --> 00:07:01,800 Speaker 1: as well.
