Description

In this episode, we cut through the noise of trending diets, viral workouts, and flashy "quick fixes" to get to the truth about sustainable fitness and real results. If you’ve ever felt like nothing works for you, it might not be you—it might be the unrealistic advice you’ve been following. If you’re tired of bouncing between fads and want an evidence-based, honest approach to fitness, this episode is for you.


We talk about:

-The behavioral side of fitness that no one talks about

-Why following influencer workout plans may be setting you up to fail

-The truth behind viral trends like oat-zempic and 12-3-30 treadmill

-Myths like “eating fat makes you fat” and fear of getting bulky

-Why counting macros can help—but only with the right mindset

-How to set realistic goals and stay consistent
