What's going on guys? This is Brandon D'Cruz, host of the Chasing Clarity Health and Fitness Podcast.

And I'm back with Jeff Hain, host of the Mind Muscle Connection Podcast for part two of our Body Recomposition Deep Dive.

So we went through what body recomposition actually is, the three forms that it can take, and the populations of individuals who can realistically build muscle and lose fat at the same time.

If you haven't listened to that one yet, I'd encourage you to go back there because everything that we're gonna discuss today started with that as the foundation.

In this episode, we're going to be picking up where we left off and getting into the application side of things.

We're going to cover why women may actually be more predisposed to recomposing than men.

And then we're going to break down the specific programming levers we use with clients to actually drive recomposition in the real world.

And this is going to include things like the deficit size we use, protein intake, and the rest of the nutrition picture.

As always with this monthly series, our goal is to bridge the gap between the evidence and the real world application.

So whether you're a coach, you're one of our clients, you're a fitness enthusiast, or you're someone simply chasing a leaner, stronger, more muscular version of yourself, there's going to be something in here for you.
