Learn how to set your own macro goals, adjust your approach as life changes, and confidently manage your nutrition for good. With social life and mental sanity intact.
If you're like most women with body composition goals, you're probably missing one (or all) of these things:
you know a thing or two about nutrition, but it still isn’t *second nature*
implementing what you know around work, family, travel, and real life is consistently a struggle
you're over short-term diets, one-time macro counts, and only seeing progress when someone is breathing down your neck - you want support, but you also want autonomy
Fat loss, maintenance, muscle building, mindful eating..
Each is a different nutritional season, and each calls for a different approach.
This is called Nutritional Periodization.
No more staying in a calorie deficit indefinitely or bouncing between dieting and doing absolutely nothing - you approach your goals in deliberate phases.
Total Recomp teaches you how to master them all – when to pursue each, how to set and adjust your targets, and how to transition between goals without losing the progress you've worked for.
One complete system, for every phase of your fitness journey.
A complete, 3-section nutrition system that teaches you how to lose fat, maintain your results and build muscle with tracking, then eventually transition to mindful eating. Learn how to set goals, adjust your approach, and confidently navigate each phase on your own.
The Ultimate Calculator + Tracker make the numbers easy. Calculate personalized calorie, macro, and activity targets, track your nutrition and progress, and know when it's time to make adjustments.
A private community of like-minded women on the same mission as you, with unlimited encouragement and group chat coaching support.
Creating it was anything but, so that learning & applying it would be.
Think of Total Recomp as a coach in your pocket.
An organized, comprehensive nutrition system you can go to whenever your goals or season of life change.
The result?
Clarity on what to do next, confidence in your decisions, and the autonomy to manage your own nutrition for life.
After being 100 pounds overweight in my 40s and 50s, then gaining and losing 35 pounds in my 60s… I knew there had to be a better way... a more sustainable way to lose weight and not always be on a diet. I loved the spreadsheet with data-driven actions and weekly reflection so that I could make adjustments in nutrition or movement to get sustainable results.
Biggest win were the mindset changes and having strategies to maintain my health goals.
You've played this game before. You've completed challenges, downloaded guides, maybe even invested in programs or coaching. So what sets TR apart?
Rooted in current research (we even link to studies! although reading them is totally optional), not anecdotes, trends, or whatever nutrition advice is going viral this week.
Knowing what works and knowing how to make it work for you are two different things.
Our tried-and-tested frameworks bridge that gap, teaching you how to apply the science, troubleshoot, and make confident decisions on your own.
This isn't just a fat loss, reverse dieting, macro tracking, or mindful eating program.
It's all of the above.
We don’t gaitkeep or give you one piece of the puzzle so you'll keep coming back for more.
This is it! The whole kit & kaboodle.
When I first learned about macros circa 2017, I was SOLD. You mean I don’t just have to eat bland, boring food in order to hit my goals?! I was totally in.
But after experiencing some fun newbie progress, things started to take a turn.
I found it harder and harder to stick to those initial (deficit) macros I had set for myself. My relationship with food started to decline. I would stick to my low calorie plan during the week, but then overeat every single weekend.
So I swung the other way - macros must be the issue! Intuitive eating must be the answer.
I ditched macros for a while and leaned on my ‘intuition’ to guide me - but unfortunately, my intuition proved to be mildly treacherous, and I entered a season of feeling very little direction or control over my health and fitness.
I knew I didn’t want to be in a deficit all of the time, but my only alternative to that seemed to be “do nothing” and that wasn’t serving me either.
So I started digging.
When I started approaching my goals in seasons, not only did my body composition improve, but my relationship with food and fitness changed for the better, too.
Now I'm sharing what I've learned through years of evidence-based education and coaching women just like you, all organized into one comprehensive system designed to help you understand the process, apply it to your own life, and eventually take the reins yourself.
I invested heavily in continuing education, discovered the evidence-based fitness world, and finally learned about the missing piece of the puzzle.
Nutritional periodization.
I learned that tracking macros and calorie deficits aren't bad, they're tools.
I learned that fat loss isn’t a lifestyle, it's a phase.
And I finally fell in love with the process when I realized I don’t have to choose between “balance” and big goals - I can have it all, just not all at the same time.

It has the perfect level of support for me. My favorite was the training/learning aspects. Like learning to focus on calories and protein instead of protein, carbs, and fats. It has been a fantastic add to my deficit. "
"I adore how Ruth approaches nutrition - she’s informative and is very unique. She has helped me cut, maintain, and find an AWESOME balance with macro tracking and living! She is a wealth of knowledge."

"Ruth has helped guide me through postpartum, a fat-loss phase and a build. I can't say enough good things about working with Ruth and how instrumental she has been in me seeing progress in my aesthetic goals. She is the type of coach that will be able to relate to your challenges but also provide practical and strategic advice."
"Genuinely couldn’t recommend this enough to anyone who not only wants to learn HOW but also wants to learn the WHY from a science-driven, yet easy to digest program. I’m a fitness & nutrition coach myself, and I feel like this program not only got me great aesthetic results, but also helped me evolve into a stronger coach. Ruth really does the most— so if you’re thinking about it, I say go all in, you won’t regret it!"
"I went from collecting nutritional data 24/7/365 to implementing calorie cycling, zooming out at my overall nutrition week over week vs day over day and relying more on biofeedback instead of what an app on my phone says.
Ruth gave me the tools and knowledge to confidently achieve body recomp in maintenance for 9 months, transition to a deficit and back into maintenance. The knowledge and spreadsheets (!!) I gained with [Ruth] are worth their weight in gold & far surpass any fad diet I have found on Google. I now actually kow what maintenance looks and feels like, for that I am forever grateful!"
This could be your story:
‘It could never be me’ is a limiting belief.
In the kindest way - you are not special.
It can be you.
You just need a framework, and support.
Working hard with no visible progress
Intelligently matching effort in the kitchen to effort in the gym
Feeling unsure of what you should be focusing on when
Learning a framework ONCE that you can repeat forever
Joining a different program or hiring a new coach every few months
Having resources & coaching at your fingertips so when you feel stuck, you always have a place to turn
GO FROM THIS
TO THIS
No, this is a nutrition coaching program and covers the nutrition side of body recomp. While it’s not required, we do highly recommend pairing this program with our monthly weightlifting membership for best results. That said - one step at a time. If you’re new to the fitness world you can start with one, and add the other later.
Yes ma’am, it’s yours for life and you can begin whenever works best for you.
Yes - each section can be completed as its own ‘solo program’ if you wish (you can start at either section 1, 2 or 3, depending on what you need/want first) or you can start from the top & work your way through chronologically. Pace & flow are completely customizable to you and your needs.
There is a lifetime group chat and community feed. In the words of alumni, ‘I feel like you’re inside my brain and answered questions in the content before I even asked.’ When we say this program is everything you need.. we mean EVERYTHING.
Responses to questions in the feed or group chat within 1 business day when you tag a coach! It really is that simple. You won’t be left screaming into the void.
Not the application - this is not a pregnancy program. However, you can always learn while pregnant, and apply later (remember, once it’s yours it’s yours for LIFE.)
Yes! We include breastfeeding adjustments so the program is indeed breastfeeding friendly.
This is a women’s program and all coaching, data and science is based on women’s needs & scenarios. That said, men are welcome to join for educational purposes.
Due to the nature of digital products, we do not offer refunds under any circumstances. If you are unsure if Total Recomp is the right fit for you, please email hello@ruthmpower.com for further clarity and guidance.
"I appreciate the thoughtfulness Ruth put into creating this program and the different modules. While I am an experienced macro counter and have spent quite a bit of time at maintenance, I really appreciated the focus on mindset and living a balanced life. She really reinforced that keeping an overall realistic expectation for the lifestyle I want to live and the body I want to maintain is a huge part of settling into maintenance. I grew more comfortable with weight fluctuations and what to expect coming out of a cut phase."
"Ruth has the most eloquent way of simplifying what can feel like very nuanced topics. Even as a coach myself, I needed the reminders of how to back off tracking and what we should be expecting in a maintenance phase. I needed the reminder that yes, maintenance takes effort, but how much effort is largely based on your goals! The program content Ruth provided was clear, concise, and factored in any and all details that my heart desired. So often we think we can slide into maintenance and just be successful, but Ruth actually provides a step by step practical approach to living in maintenance with confidence. Whether you’re looking to determine your true maintenance for the first time or want to reaffirm your trust in the maintenance phase, this is for you!"
"I learned so much... I am excited to go back into a deficit for a few months and retry a maintenance phase for November and December. My biggest progress was mental. It’s ok to eat all the calories. It’s ok to not have a deficit mindset every single day. It’s ok to prioritize being strong over skinny."
"You’ve made it so simple to follow a fat loss phase with the great tips, amazing lessons, and awesome accountability and support with the group. My biggest takeaway is the concept of nutritional periodization. I now understand how there are phases"
"I loved this program because it helped me learn how to cut whenever I want to in a healthy way! You didn't tell me what to eat and when you TAUGHT me how to eat and move according to my goals as well as my lifestyle. There's no guilt in your program... only motivation, adjustments and encouragement to do what your mind, heart and body are saying is best."
Well, we call bull.
You don’t know what to do - you know the problem.
If you knew what to do, you would have done it by now (‘knowing what to do’ means the head knowledge AND the application - not just the problem or the desired outcome.)
We’ll teach you the method. Show you the steps. Lead you to and then help you maintain the desired outcome.
You can achieve the fit body of your dreams - with social life, mental sanity and physical health fully intact.
You just have to take the first step, and we’ll take it from there.
