Hi it’s me Amina Zena, your favorite personal trainer/DJ. Today we’re talking about Gut Health, Fasting and why the timing of when you eat matters just as much as what we eat. Gut health is a complex subject that can’t be summed up in 1 episode, so think of today’s episode as an introduction to a much longer discussion. Long story short your gut is full of bacteria and the food you consume can change whether those foods become good or bad bacteria.
Breaking your fast with the right or wrong food can impact how your body does or doesn’t absorb vitamins and minerals and breaks down proteins, fats and carbs. Your gut health is linked to all areas of your health, even things like your skin and nails can be affected by the digestive enzymes floating around in your stomach. We’ll also be talking about the more common gut concerns like how to avoid bloating, have more regular bathroom visits, and long term daily habits you can start working on today so that you can live your most fit and lit lifestyle.
So let’s dive into today’s episode, and as always if you’ve been loving the show please be sure to leave us a 5 Star rating on itunes so more people can receive the Stay Fit Stay Lit message, it’s free, only takes a few seconds and goes a long way!

Hey, It's me Amina Zena and today we're talking about Veganism vs Non-Veganism, aka the debate of the century. Today I'll be sharing my thoughts and experiences with different diets and foods I've tried. Even though I'm a personal trainer and very knowledgeable when it comes to nutrition I know there's always more to learn and my opinions are liable to change and it's important to know we all have our own unique bio chemistry so there's no such thing as one size fits all nutrition approach. I think the best research you can do is listen to your own body, nobody knows more about what you need than you!

Today we're discussing my opinion on American vs European Food. It's a topic that I love to talk about so I'm finally recording my first podcast about it. I'm originally born in the USA but I've been living in Amsterdam for the past 2 years. I've been a personal trainer and group fitness instructor for the past 12 years, 2 of those took place in West Virginia, 8 in NYC, and the past 2 in Amsterdam and I've eaten a lot of food in that time!
As a fitness professional part of my job is to teach people about nutrition, things like macros, calories, and how the metabolism works. I've tried on several different diets myself, I have years of mine and my client's food logs on my computer and I'm always continuing my research on fitness, nutrition, and everything related to wellness. So this episode is just the beginning of an ongoing discussion, even though I see myself as an expert in my craft I don't know everything and there's a possibility I may not be 100% accurate although I do try to only speak from experience I'm not perfect and you should always do your own research! Hopefully, my sharing my opinion is thought-provoking and helps you become even more aware of what you're consuming.
As always if you've been loving the podcast please rate and write a review on iTunes, it helps other people hear this much-needed information, spread the word, we are what we eat!

Hey it's me Amina Zena. Today we're talking about 6 ways to boost your results from your workouts! There's no shortcut to success, in order to be fit you have to put in the work, you have to show up and push yourself to get better each workout. You must be mindful of every piece of food you put in your mouth and you have to prioritize rest, getting proper sleep, drinking water, and maintaining mental health. Yes, taking care of yourself is pretty much a full-time job! And nothing will ever more than your health which is why I wanted to share some things that make me feel like I'm getting even better results on top of a solid foundation in fitness and nutrition.
2021 is our year to thrive in chaos, I've decided I'm making the most of every day regardless of what's happening around me. I've had to make some serious pivots in my life, my business, my relationships, almost everything I do has been affected by the Pandemic. I haven't been able to teach group fitness classes or DJ any events yet so this Podcast is my way to share what I care about while things start opening back up so I just wanted to say thank you to those of you who have been supporting the podcast and sharing it with your friends on social media, you're helping the world become a healthier fitter place!

About 10% of your brain is for decision making, willpower, reading, doing tasks, etc. And while you definitely need to feel motivated and take action consistently in order to reach your goals your conscious mind is only the tip of the iceberg that is your mind. The other 90% of your brain is subconscious, that's the deep side of yourself, it's where your beliefs live.
Your Subconscious mind is where you form your identity. In order to create and maintain a positive change in your body, your first have to shift your identity. You have to see yourself as a fit person, you have to visualize and take action from the place where you want to be, not where you currently are. Ask yourself how does your most fit, confident, hot, athletic, flexible, self shows up? Decide what it means to feel your best then you can begin to be that way.
Identity is formed by several different lifetime processes and is something I don't consider myself a true expert in so please take my opinion on this with a grain of salt and do your own research. I studied psychology for a few semesters in college and since then I've kept up with my own studies. A few books I've read that speak on this are "The Body Keeps The Score" by Bessel van der Kolk M.D., "Seven Habits of Highly Effective People" by Stephen Covey and "The Power Of Habit" by Charles Duhigg, "The Power of Now' by Ekhart Tolle and I just recently completed a 3-day workshop specifically on how to reprogram the subconscious mind through Manifestation Babe and I wanted to share my take on it from a Personal Trainer's perspective.
I think as we evolve together as people it's important to have conversations that matter I think this is one that should be had. We should all being to understand ourselves on a deeper level so we can all make the world a better place. And that starts with treating yourself well every step of the way. I've learned over the year fitness is mostly a mental game. Training your mindset is part of training your body. I say keep showing up for yourself and do what it takes to become your highest version, repetition is the way to master your self and your body, learn to fall gracefully so you can get back up quickly because life is supposed to be fun. And When you feel at peace in your mind and happy with your body life gets even better. It's never been about fixing yourself, only about becoming more who you are!

In This Episode, You'll Discover the 5 things you need to know in order to Not Gain Unwanted Body Fat This Holiday Season! :
- Don’t Stress. Stress raises your cortisol hormone, and cortisol can cause your body to store unwanted fat. No one and nothing is worth giving up your peace of mind! Holidays are supposed to be fun
- Don’t consume excessive amounts of processed sugar, refined carbs, and alcohol. I enjoy all of those things but there’s a difference between treating yourself and sabotaging yourself. I log my food and workouts so I’m aware of the calories I’m burning and I’m able to factor in how much cheat food I can have without going overboard. Understanding macros will simplify your life, using numbers helps you stay organized and in control of your nutrition. If you really have a hard time managing your food at parties eat before you go so you don’t accidentally overeat when you’re there.
- Keep Working Out. There are a million ways to train. You can have the best, most effective workout of your life alone in your bedroom with no equipment. It’s all about mindset, finding the forms of exercise that inspire you, and remembering to let your dreams matter more than your doubts. That’s why I named my online training program “Dream Body Fitness Academy” because I teach people how to build their dream body while eating whatever they want. Nobody got time for diets and restrictions. Head to aminazenafitness.com to apply for 1:1 support, space is limited.
- Wear a cute outfit, life is too short + it’s easy to stay away from the snacks when you don’t want to spill something on your clothes. Wearing big baggy sweatpants will give you an excuse to eat to the point of no return. Feeling satiated is one thing, feeling sick to your stomach from eating 4 gallons of grandma's stuffing is not a vibe.
- Don’t overcomplicate it. If you’re staying consistent with your fitness and nutrition a few days of eating cookies and wine won’t do any damage. Sometimes a caloric surplus is what the body needs. Knowing your body and creating a healthy relationship with yourself and food is key! I think food is one of the best parts of life and I love to eat. Treat yourself with kindness no matter what stage of your journey that you’re in

In Today's episode, we'll be discussing what to eat, but first I wanted to share my thoughts about the 2020 Election results. All aspects of life, especially this Election, can impact our state of well being which is why I wanted to talk about it. How we do one thing is how we do everything and I've learned through my years of training that fitness is a metaphor for life, our fitness levels are oftentimes a reflection of what we feel is possible for ourselves.
Once you realize and truly believe that anything is possible your fitness journey becomes a lot more fun! And once you understand how the body uses food eating makes a lot more sense! Eating is something we have to do every day so we might as well get good at it! Protein, Fat, and Carbs are the three main building blocks of nutrition, knowing when to eat and how much to eat is essential for seeing the changes you want to see in your body and performance levels.
There are a lot of fad diet trends that tell you what to do but not why to do it, which is what gets people stuck in the yo-yo diet cycle. Understanding your nutrition is what gives you the power to build and maintain the body of your dreams.

Once I let go of society's definition of success I finally had the space to create my own! This episode is for you if you're wanting to be more authentic and show up as your true self.
Fitness has helped me discover my strengths from the inside out, sometimes we see challenges as obstacles when in reality challenges change us for the better and obstacles are actually opportunities in disguise.
