Change Your Story Podcast

Think you need more cardio to lose body fat? Think again! In this week's Fit in Five, I'm sharing how I'd actually build a fat-loss program, why strength training is my starting point, and why doing more isn't always the answer. We're talking muscle, metabolism, daily movement, and the minimum effective dose. Because fat loss isn't about doing everything. It's about consistently doing what matters. Fit Mind. Fit Body.

We're also talking about the science behind weight fluctuations, fat loss, and how to measure progress beyond a number.

Do you really need to train five or six days a week to build muscle, lose fat, and see changes in your body? In today's Fit in Five, I'm breaking down how many strength-training sessions you actually need, why more isn't always better, and how to find your minimum effective dose. We'll talk about three full-body sessions, starting with two if you're a beginner, and what to focus on during your non-training days. The takeaway: The best program isn't the one that has you doing the most. It's the one you can consistently commit to.   Ask Hannah — Fit in Five Got a fitness or nutrition question? Send it my way!

  You want to get stronger. You want to look toned. But there's that little voice in the back of your mind saying, "What if lifting heavier makes me too big?" Sound familiar? In this week's Change Your Story podcast, we're kicking off our October fear series by unpacking three common fears women have around strength training: getting too bulky, getting injured, and looking stupid because they don't know what they're doing. We're talking about what it actually takes to build muscle, why your fears might be keeping you from the results you want, and how to start building strength with more confidence and less fear. Because sometimes the very thing we're afraid of is the thing keeping us stuck. 💌 Submit your fitness or nutrition questions https://fitclub.mvt.so/forms/885762    THE FIT CLUB APP | 7 DAY FREE TRIAL  https://fitclub.mvt.so/7-day-free-trial-fit-club-app Change Your Food Story | 12 week self paced course https://fitclub.mvt.so/changeourfoodstory 21 Day Gratitude Challenfge | FREE https://fitclub.mvt.so/challenges/october-gratitude-challenge     🤍 CONNECT WITH THE COMMUNITY ❤️ Come hang out with me on Instagram 📸 Instagram: @changeyourstory.podcast @fitclubbabesapp @hannah.dawson.fitness Follow along for daily inspiration, real talk, and updates: YOUTUBE: https://www.youtube.com/@HannahDawson  Join a community of strong, empowered women changing their stories together.   ⭐ SUPPORT THE PODCAST Love the show?

Does Sweating More Mean You're Burning More Fat? | Fit in Five You've probably heard the saying, "Sweat is your fat crying." Heck, I used to say it myself! 😂 But does sweating more actually mean you're burning more fat? And if you're drenched after a workout, does that mean you worked harder or got better results? In today's Fit in Five, we're clearing up one of the biggest fitness myths and talking about what your sweat is actually telling you about your workout. Because here's the thing: Just because you're sweating doesn't mean you're progressing. Got a fitness or nutrition question you'd love me to answer? Submit it using the link in the show notes.
