Great vid! Ive been doing the ibex60 program for about year now and i love it! But would it possible to also add the weights in kilos aswell in the programming? all of us that is not based in the US need to translate every weight all the time haha! And also, it would be so nice to specify in the workouts when it says bike if its echo or c2. Get the guessing out of it😃 thank you great content and ibex workouts!

Ok I love this video it was very informative. My only question is what about right after you workout? Do you have a protein shake/bar or eat one of these meals?

@Kristi-Eramo-OConnell 17 күн бұрын

I used to always do a protein shake. The newest research shows as long as you are eating within 4 hours of your workout you are fine. So typically I eat an 60-90 minutes before (the yogurt bowl with oats), then my workout may be about 60 minutes , and then about 60 minutes after my workout I typically eat the chicken and rice! If I need extra protein or am on the go, I will do a protein shake with a carb (ignition) or a banana in place of the carb! That is an easy way for me to up calories when training really hard!

@thebestyousteffifitlife3499 15 күн бұрын

thanks Kristi for sharing for food. I could take out some things, that I am willing to implemnet even more. The sweet potatoe plate makes me thinking, that I also enjoy fresh food without adding sauces or anything else. I like the taste of the food itself.

@Kristi-Eramo-OConnell 14 күн бұрын

Yes, it's an adjustment at first with no sauces, but once you get away from them you will realize how sweet they are and how much they really jsut taste like sugar!! I typically stick to salsa or maybe a little hot sauce. I used to be queer of BBQ and Ketchup and since getting rid of those I taste my food so much more!

Thoughts on fasting to lose body fat Kristi? Just you mention you never want to feel hungry as it slows your metabolism down. Love your content 🥰

@Kristi-Eramo-OConnell 17 күн бұрын

Fasting works really really well for some people and not as well for others. I think each person is individual when it comes to that so it is hard to say. They re some great studies on it for sure but also some that say it isn't something you should do forever. I think that is a trial and error for most people to see how it makes them feel. I don't feel strongly for or against it because of this. And thanks!! I appreciate that a lot!!!!

My husband and I started Whole30 back on January 1 just for a reboot…..I’m still doing it as that’s what I crave. I dont miss the dairy or grains anymore. Dates with walnuts satisfies my sweet tooth. Believe it or not, i dont have the muffin top anymore which is surprising with the amount of nuts I eat. Everything is whole, unprocessed, no added sugar foods. And it’s actually a cheaper grocery bill lol. Wasn’t doing it to lose weight but to feel better. Don’t know how long I’ll keep going, but for now, it’s what it is.

I have always had questions around the body fat range for women. I have been told being under 18% is not healthy because it messes with hormone balance, but I am not an expert and don’t know if that’s true. I don’t know enough about how it impacts the body to know what’s the best percentage for me to aim for. I would love to hear what you know on this, and what your mindset is if it’s not too sensitive a topic. Thanks for sharing!

@Kristi-Eramo-OConnell 17 күн бұрын

For females we need enough fat for our reproductive system to function properly. If you do not have enough you are at risk of losing your monthly cycle and disrupting your hormones. General studied say 18-20% is a healthy range for a female. I have not lost my cycle, had hair loss etc, but I would like to see mine get a bit higher as I exit the world of competing!

@meganjohnson5689 17 күн бұрын

@@Kristi-Eramo-OConnell Thank you! I was an athlete through college and experienced lower body fat percentages during high school which definitely impacted my cycle. Now that I’m in my 30’s I didn’t know if age/activity level play a factor in the recommendation of staying at a “higher” percentage because my body is definitely different now compared to being a teenager. I know you’ve always stayed at a high performing level of fitness, where I dropped off after college and am now back into a regular fitness routine. I’ve been hovering around 22% and am trying to decide if I’m going to continue to maintain or try to decrease and what that would look like. Again, thank you for your response! ☺️

@Kristi-Eramo-OConnell 17 күн бұрын

I def have heard mixed reviews because of it not being a complete source. The way I look at it.... I weigh 130ish lbs and eat 150+G of Protein (including 15g of collagen or 135g not including the 15g ). My goal is always to eat 1.0g of Protein per lb so I still get that and the collagen can or cannot be counted but it does still count as calories which is important for some people really watching their caloric intake!

@Neil_Philly 17 күн бұрын

@@Kristi-Eramo-OConnell That is exactly where I am at on with this topic. The research on this is patchy. So I hit my protein goals without collagen allowance. And I take collagen as an additional supplement with additional benefits!

@annastressarella172 17 күн бұрын

I love your workout conetent but promoting such a low body fat perecentage for women is so irresponisble from you! 1. No woman should stay at such a low body fat percentage besides she is peaking for a body building comp. It is not true the lower your body fat, the fitter you are .. most likely most people at this low body fat will feel like crap. And also important: you can eat the completely same amount and foods and you will still not look like her.

@Kristi-Eramo-OConnell 17 күн бұрын

The reason I share it is because I get the question non stop. I also have shared in my last video talking about it, that it is lower than I would like from training excessively for competing and have been working to increase it. I never once said eating like this will get you down to 9-10% body fat or lower body fat means your fitter.
