A Day of Eating for Tia-Clair Toomey
Fittest Woman in the World, Tia-Clair Toomey is a big part of the Method family working with Coach Simone to prepare for competitions and support her recovery. We caught up at Method HQ for a breakdown on what goes into fuelling her, other than Tim-Tams! Here's what she had to say:
“Nutrition is something I am constantly learning about on a daily basis and realising it’s not just great for my recovery but it allows me to live a healthier, happier balance of life. After seeing and experiencing first hand the importance nutrition has on my mind, body and soul, I want to ensure I’m staying on track. So for me, I have found doing Macros and having a nutrition coach/mentor takes away that pressure and stress of trying to figure it out by myself.
At the moment, my macros are P:140 C: 200-400 F: 80, the carbs really depend on what I have planned for the day in terms of training. I plan what I eat around sessions, and I'm not always strict with my tracking so I apologise about not having portions for you!
