Lots of factors go into whether or not you will successfully achieve a goal. How bad you want it, where you are in your life, your physical limitations just to name a few. But one of the most powerful indicators of success is a shift in your mindset. So in this episode, I want to talk about the mindset shift required in order to succeed and accomplish 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.

A lot of runners believe that when it comes to exercise, running is more than enough. They love running, do it 6-7 days a week, and don’t feel the need to do anything else.

In this episode, I explain what cross-training is, what it isn’t, and offer suggestions for the best cross-training exercises for runners.

Today, I’m going to separate fact from fiction and share all of the incredible positive health benefits that intermittent fasting provides.
