Let's talk about your mindset when it comes to health and fitness. Is it setting you up for success or slowly but surely sabotaging all of your efforts? Whether you're an all-or-nothing type of person, or maybe you're constantly comparing yourself to others, how you view and approach your fitness might be the reason you do or don't see success.

In today's episode with a title laced with misleading innuendo, I'll discuss how you can help alleviate your chronic low back pain without leaving your bed (no, this is not an episode claiming sex will cure your back pain). Instead, I'll explain how you can do several exercises first thing in the morning without even leaving your bed that can help get rid of that annoying stiffness many people suffer with. As promised, here is a list of the exercises with video demonstrations: 1. Diaphragmati...
This episode/rant is inspired by a comment that was left on a recent social media post of ours. In a nutshell, this person claimed that as a trainer, you should never give an exercise to a client that they hate. Instead, swap it with something they enjoy which will 'increase their performance'. While I somewhat agree with the random internet troll, there are aspects to his/her comment that I do not. Give this short episode a listen to find out why doing stuff you hate from time to time is act...

Is it sustainable? A simple question, but important one nonetheless. Too many of us take an "instant gratification" approach when it comes to our health and fitness: we want results, and we want them now. And too often this leads to individuals engaging in extreme methods of diet and exercise... most of which are too extreme to maintain for longer any extended period. So we fall off the bandwagon, revert to bad habits, and end up right back where we started. It's time to take a differ...
On today's episode we have Angelina, who has been a client at GRIT for two years now. Angelina has experienced a tremendous amount of success up to this point in her fitness journey (down 40lbs!), but that doesn't mean it comes without it's fair share of setbacks and adversity. We'll dive into what some of these obstacles were, how she overcame them, as well as the physical and mental transformation that has occurred over the last two years as a result of consistent strength training.

The word "harsh" is used lightly in this episode because, well, some of these aren't necessarily that terrible to hear... but still valuable nonetheless. But that doesn't mean some of the statements in this episode won't strike a nerve (ex: when I explain that sometimes health and fitness requires you to just shut the f*ck up and work). As promised, here is a link to the previous episode I mention early on in this episode. And incase you'd like to read the "harsh" statements without my insi...
