Carlos came to Black Iron Nutritoin with the goal of reducing body fat and improving his performance in the gym (Crossfit). He had some serious time commitments as he was studying for his engineering license, but he really committed and hit the ground running on the process. Coach Chris talks about the strategies they focused on that would include minimal additional stress and time commitment.

I came to Black Iron Nutrition as a serial dieter, always just wanting to cut down my food to ‘look like I do CrossFit’. Instead we’ve spent 4 years building up my metabolism through eating more food, prioritising recovery and building my strength and fitness. I learned that in order to do well in CrossFit, you REALLY need to eat a lot.

Previously, I had always felt depleted with low energy after cuts, and this time the process has been the smoothest it’s ever been, all while still being able to train really hard. I think the biggest growth for me in this whole process has been being able to shift my mindset that tracking my food does not have to always involve weight loss.

I lost over 10 pounds, without my macros dropping (not even really cutting) and I'm 15# heavier than when I finished previous cuts, but I think I actually look better. I feel way better. I'm eating full meals, I'm not hungry and I look forward to my weekly check-ins, my coaches advice, and it's really powerful to look back at the week and find something, anything to stamp as something you're proud of.

After college, my weight fluctuated over the years as I would be consistent with working out and then fall off the wagon once again. Starting BIN has literally been one of the best things I have ever done for myself. Not only do I finally feel comfortable in my own skin, but BIN has sparked a passion for nutrition in me. I love learning about it and talking to people about it.

My coach taught me how to properly fuel my body for all of the Crossfit competitions I was doing back then as well as helped me work on my mindset with food and the scale. Flash forward to 2019, I felt like a had a pretty good handle on my nutrition and counting macros so I switched to Condensed Lifestyle with Chelsi! Chelsi has helped me get ready for my Olympic weightlifting competition earlier this year (with no cut needed might I add).

In this past year, I’ve added over 100 pounds to both my squat and deadlift and I’m no longer afraid of gaining weight. In fact, all I want to do now is be bigger and stronger and I am currently eating more food than I ever have in my entire life! BIN has helped me do everything I’ve ever dreamed of doing as an athlete. I’m confident in my body and have a level of self-love that I never thought was possible!

This journey started as a fitness related goal and actually turned into an entire lifestyle change. The first huge thing my coach helped me conquer was to get over my fear of gyms. Before BIN I was terrified of getting judged or doing something wrong and my coach helped show me that we all have to start somewhere. I will NEVER stop recommending this program. You all have created something amazing!

Today I can honestly say that this was one of the most important changes I have ever made in my life. After a couple months of tweaking my numbers, learning the importance of consistency, and finding foods that I really enjoyed that fit my macros, I started to feel absolutely amazing. Not only did I start to lose both weight and body fat, but also my acne completely cleared up, I was able to get movements that I could never do before, and my mindset started to change,
