In this episode, Andrew Menechian, founder of Peak Performance coaching in Sydney and a 12+ year veteran of the fitness industry, explores how coaches, parents, and trainers can use body composition feedback as a powerful tool—without triggering food fear or unhealthy body image concerns. You'll discover why scale weight is a misleading metric, when body composition data actually serves an athlete versus when it creates unnecessary pressure, and how to recognize the subtle signs that someone isn't eating enough (which show up in training performance first). Andrew breaks down the psychology of how the words adults use around food and bodies directly shape athlete mindsets, and shares practical habits that support recovery and muscle maintenance without complexity.
