Hey Marc! I'm a 31 yo female, sitting at around 145lbs, 17% bf - after losing over 100lbs (4 years ago) and working up maintenance calories over the past 8 months from 1200cals to 2300cals. However I was wondering if this would explain how much my weight can fluctuate (easily 5-8lbs). Is this due to me eating more carbs or just training my muscles harder and lifting heavier or just a woman!!!

 I do take probiotics but the bloating continues. Is there a way to treat bloating?

Thanks,

Eddie

How do you recommend going about beginning a business? Is it best to remain in what you're doing and do a side hustle until you have enough built up to support yourself? Is it better to get an impressive degree or just read up on as much as you can know and save the degree money? (I figured you'd be overloaded with nutrition questions, so I'd pick your business brain)

Hey Marc, In training I've always found my  performance is greatly improved when I get in the right state of mind.. and "get in the zone" the perfect balance between rage and ambition....

I am currently enrolled in NASM personal trainer and going to school to become a Dietitian. End goal is to become a online coach. In your opinion should I work for of a large scale box gym first or just jump right into being a online coach? I have read mixed reviews on what to do first. I also plan on getting Crossfit certified to Level 4 and once I can afford it I will do the EXOS. I choose all of this due to your video on 3 top personal training certifications.
