When it comes to fitness, so much attention is put on your actions - what you should and shouldn’t do. I’m not suggesting you shouldn’t do stuff, but I think you need to stop focusing all of your attention on actions and start paying more attention to your thinking. It’s you thinking that determines whether you stick to a plan or not. It’s your thinking that keeps you going when the going gets tough. So in this episode of the podcast, how your thinking (more than anything else) determines your results.

When it comes to accomplishing big goals, you have to expect things to get hard. For example, losing weight takes time, and for some it can be a long and challenging road to get there.

In this episode of the podcast, what it means to choose your hard, and some practical tips to help you choose wisely.

It’s that time of year when the days are getting shorter and colder, the holidays are upon us, and all you feel like doing is staying in and eating comfort food. And just so you know, I’m not opposed to eating comfort food, but I believe there’s a right way and a wrong way to do it. I also believe there are a lot of misconceptions about using food to comfort ourselves so I want to address that here today too. In this episode of the podcast, the truth about comfort food - how do it the right way so you don’t completely screw up your food plan.

The holidays can be a very difficult time of the year for a lot of people. Shopping for gifts, planning social events, spending more time with family, and the added end-of-year demands at work can all lead to feeling more stressed and overwhelmed. It can be very easy to just say “F-it” and blow off all your diet and exercise plans, stay indoors watching Netflix with a big ol’ glass of wine, and hibernate until the New Year. In this episode of the podcast, I share a few simple tips for handling the holidays like a badass so you can slide into the New Year feeling good about yourself (which is not the way most people do it).

I’ve received a lot of comments on my social media posts over the years basically saying that if you are a runner, you shouldn’t need help losing weight. The main thought behind these types of comments is that if you run, you shouldn’t be overweight and that running, in and of itself, is all you need to do in order to lose those extra pounds. These are nice ideas, but they just don’t hold up in reality. In this episode, I’ll address all the reasons why runners need help losing weight, and why it doesn’t involve running more miles.

Just about all of us will eventually engage in some type of self-sabotaging behavior. Most of the time though, you don't know when you’re doing it.

It’s actually pretty subtle sometimes, but knowing what it looks like is the important first step in eliminating it from your life. So in this episode of the podcast, I’m going to answer the question, “How do I know if I’m self-sabotaging?” so you can start making progress toward your goals again.

This past weekend I had the privilege to be a part of the 49th annual Marine Corps Marathon. Just to be clear, I did not run the race, instead, I was able to be a part of this amazing event from a very different perspective, one that most people don’t ever get to experience. I came away from the race feeling all the feelings and it really renewed my love of the sport of running. In this episode of the podcast, I share some of the big lessons learned at Marine Corps Marathon and how this event has changed my life for the better.

When you think of discipline, what comes to mind? For some, it conjures up images of obeying rules and doling out punishment for anyone who disobeys. I never think of discipline as punishment, but rather a method of achieving whatever worthwhile goal that I want for myself. If there’s something big that you want for yourself, I’m telling you, there’s no magic formula, it just takes practicing the art of discipline to get it. So in this episode of the podcast, I'll be exploring what it means to practice the art of discipline so that you can achieve everything you want in your life.

1I talk a lot about carbs here on the podcast, mainly why it’s advised to keep your carbs low if you’re a runner who wants to lose weight and use body fat as fuel for running. I realized I haven’t spent much time talking about the other macronutrients - fat and protein. So this episode is all about the macronutrient that matters most for runners and how it benefits your overall health and fitness.

I talk a lot about losing weight and eventually getting to your “natural weight” but I’ve never really taken the time to explain what your “natural weight” is. Several people have been asking me about this lately so I thought it would be a good idea to dig into this topic here on the podcast today. In this episode, I’m going to talk about some of the standards we use to determine ideal weight, and why they don't work for everyone, what “natural weight” means, and how to tell when you’re at your natural weight.

If you have a big goal like losing weight and keeping it off, then you know it is going to take a while to reach that goal. One of the main reasons people don’t reach their weight loss goal is that they lose motivation. The interesting thing is that there are different motivation strategies that work for different people. Not everyone responds to the same types of motivation. So today I’ve got a few motivation strategies to keep you moving forward so you can actually achieve those big goals.

When it comes to weight loss tips, one principle stands out among all the others: counting calories. For decades, you’ve been told that the only way to lose weight is to make sure you count all your calories. Honestly, if this worked as advertised, we wouldn’t have a crisis of obesity here in this country, and no one would struggle with their weight. But the truth is, it doesn’t work. Today on the podcast, why counting calories doesn’t work and what you should probably do instead.
