Body Recomposition (The Swole-ly Grail!)

Justin Romaire
About this episode

Body re-composition, for a very long time, was thought to be impossible for people who weren't genetically "gifted". People also thought that tracking macros was sustainable for a long time, but if you've been following CBG for a while now you know that you can CRUSH WOD's without tracking macros. The fact is body re-comp is not only possible, but highly beneficial to people who want to LOOK like they CrossFit as much as they do. On today's episode of CBG radio, Coach Justin will be going over what body re-comp looks like, how anyone can achieve it, and why it's one of the most important tools to add to your routine.
