Description
If you've tried all the fad diets and are sick and tired of not achieving your health and fitness goals long-term, you've come to the right place! Welcome to the Unf*ck Your Fitness Podcast with me, Kristy Castillo. I'm here to help you break the annoying diet cycle, gain confidence, and reach your health and fitness goals.
This podcast will show you how to be proud of the body you have, build the body you want, and enjoy the process along the way. I'll cover topics like how to get the most from your workouts, the importance of feeding your body what it needs, and key mindset shifts that will empower you. I've broken through the BS surrounding diet culture and built my dream body, all while being a busy wife, Mom and business owner, and I know you can too!

Send us a Text Message.Today’s episode topic isn’t necessarily groundbreaking information, or anything you’ve never heard before, but..it’s pretty damn important! When it comes to your health and fitness, intentionality is KEY. While it’s a pretty basic concept, too often, we ‘unintentionally’ drift into unhealthy habits (or habits we weren't setting out to create). We don’t usually realize this has happened, but it can feel really difficult to get back to being intentional with our workouts,...
Send us a Text Message.Today’s episode is covering a VERY requested topic I’ve gotten lately - the smart scale!I personally use the RENPHO Smart Scale, and I absolutely love it! I highly encourage my clients to get a smart scale, because it tracks SO much more than a typical scale that just gives you your body weight. The smart scale provides some pretty fascinating data when it comes to health metrics, but I promise to keep the information I’m sharing here simple and digestible (no BS like a...
Send us a Text Message.I’ve been noticing a common theme when working with my clients lately - it’s also something that I’ve experienced myself, and have come to realize I’m really good at doing. The ability to be able to pivot, and really embrace more flexibility on my fitness journey in a way that feels authentic to me has helped me SO much - it’s kind of my specialty. I’ve been at this for over 15 years now, so you could say I’ve had to pivot a time (or two) along the way! I’m current...
Send us a Text Message.Have you ever felt like the scale is basically your worst enemy when it comes to your health and fitness??I hear often from the ladies I work with that they’re either weighing themselves daily and are super fixated on the results, or they’re never stepping foot on the scale and want to steer clear of it all together. Either way, the scale still seems to control SO much of how we feel about ourselves and our overall health. This is something I've personally struggled wit...
Send us a Text Message.I will say this forever....consistency is the key to getting the healthy, fit body you want. Patience plays a big part as well. I started my Spring cut a few weeks ago and it has been a SLOW progress. In years past I would have gotten very discouraged and went to drastic measures to lose a few pounds. This year I am proud of my mindset and ability to show up despite not seeing changes on the scale. I have been reminded of the importance of consistency during this proces...
Send us a Text Message.Whether you are just curious about my journey from hairstylist to Beachbody coach to full time personal trainer or if you would like to help others in the fitness field, this podcast is a little sample of what my timeline and career journey looks like. It was hard to decide which parts to share and what would best help you understand my journey the most... so in true Kristy fashion I share a little of everything! Starting as a Beachbody coach and transitioning into my o...
Send us a Text Message.The entire point of unf*cking your fitness is to think about things differently, in a way that actually works, so you can stop the diet cycle you are stuck in.Do you "burn off" calories you've eaten?Do you do extra cardio so you can eat more? Earn your food?Do you obsess over macros and calories? I used to do those things too! The good news is you can redefine your relationship with fitness and food!Imagine appreciating each calorie not as something to burn off on the t...
Send us a Text Message.This episode is a great conversation about how to approach the topic of health and fitness with your kids. I get asked about this commonly and I feel like I can't give that advice since I don't know your kids. So instead, lets have a conversation about things to take into consideration when deciding how you want to handle to topic of food in your home.I started lifting weights (little weights 😆) when my kids were 2 and 6 months old... that was 15 years ago. I have...
Send us a Text Message.This episode is full of tough love and truth bombs!I think you will really enjoy and appreciate my thoughts on this topic "No one is coming to save you." You will walk away feeling motivated! You have to take control. That is a scary thing to hear when you don't know what steps to take and don't have the confidence it takes to get sh*t done. I know, I've been there.I get real about the consequences of the broken promises we make to ourselves and how they silently chip a...
Send us a Text Message.Carbs have been demonized for far too long, and it's time to set the record straight. We have made so much progress in the health and fitness space with weight lifting and overall treating our bodies better... but the fear of carbs is still alive and well and it needs to stop.I would love to help you realize you can have a healthy mindset around carbs and that YOU can be in control. Carbs come in different forms: oatmeal, rice, bread, fruit, veggies and oreos. YOU can c...
Send us a Text Message.I have felt bombarded on social media lately with ads of products promising to improve my face, my body, my digestion, my sleep (and just about everything else... and honestly... I'm sick of it. It makes me feel like I can't get away from the pressure of buying something or looking a certain way. Social media in general has become overwhelming lately and the constant feeling of needing to look, shop and workout the way someone else does and it has me feeling irrit...
Send us a Text Message.Every season in my 15 year fitness journey has been a lesson in determination and grit...a test to see if I would quit or keep going! This current season is proving to be the same. This episode is about my current personal struggles as well as my mindset to get through it. There is always something that could be in our way if we let it... life, family, health issues, self sabotage. There are always reasons and excuses why we can't get started: I'm too busy, I'm too old,...
Send us a Text Message.The title pretty much says it all! "THIS SH*T IS NOT OPTIONAL".I see so many people approaching health and fitness with an optional mentality... When it's gets hard, you quit. When it's time consuming, you quitWhen it feels uncomfortable, you quitWhen you are not motivated, you quitIf it "doesn't work for you", you quitA lot of things in life are not optional... health and fitness should be one of those things.From the moment I realized this was a life-long jo...
Send us a Text Message.Most of the ways I see other people approaching macros do not work for me. For example: Have you ever found yourself knee-deep in tupperware during a weekend meal prep marathon, only to end up with food that you don't even want by Wednesday? Yeah, me too.. and I hated it. I needed to figure out how to make macro tracking work for ME!I started learning about macros at the same time I learned to budget (which I talk a lot about in this episode). I saw success throug...

In this episode I am sorting through them with you so you can easily iden...

Send us a Text Message.This episode covers two important topics: The mindset you need to see success with macros and the correct way to find your calorie/macro goals.If you approach macros from a place of restriction you are doing yourself a disservice. Macros are the way you fuel your body for longevity and true health, it's not a quick fix. I help my clients view macros differently and this episode will help you too! Knowing how to set up your macro targets is a common struggle and I ...
