Description

In this Q&A episode, I answer ten of your questions on fat loss, strength training, protein intake, and staying consistent on weekends—plus a few fun personal ones too.

Here’s what I cover:
✅ Why weekends derail so many fitness journeys—and how to fix it
✅ How to know when it’s time to increase weights in the gym
✅ The difference between training for strength vs muscle
✅ Easy ways to boost protein intake without supplements
✅ Do you need to count macros, or is tracking calories enough?

I also share my personal workout structure, a €50 purchase that surprised me, and a movie quote that randomly pops into my head more than it should.
