It’s just me on the mic again this week, breaking down some common causes for stress and how to approach your training when you’re feeling the effects of sleeplessness, anxiety, or mental fatigue. Given the prevalence of sayings like “no pain, no gain,” and popular fitness methodologies like CrossFit and HIIT, it’s easy to fall into the trap of thinking that fitness isn’t worthwhile if every workout isn’t an all-or-nothing, max-effort beatdown that leaves you lying in a puddle of your own sweat. When you’re already feeling beat down, that kind of training is neither appealing nor beneficial. But that doesn’t mean you have to take a break from fitness completely – you just have to be smarter about it. This episode will give you a good idea of what that looks like, from general elements to specific workout ideas. Enjoy!

Traeger Grills

One of the things I talk about in today’s show is the idea of cultivating a powerful, confident relationship inside of our own bodies. Apart from the training we do and the food we eat, a key way to develop that relationship is through cooking. Cooking is the practice of nourishing our minds, souls, and bodies. Nowadays, so many of us are cooking less and eating meals that don’t take a lot of time or patience to make, and I think there’s a big piece missing from our human experience when we remove cooking. 

With 6-in-1 functionality, Traeger makes grills that enable you to create some of the most amazing meals you’ve ever had. Traeger Grills are second to none when it comes to gourmet-quality grilling. Like no other grill, they offer backyard chefs an incredible support system to guide your flavor journey and to ensure the perfection of your end result. Traeger’s WiFire technology paired with the Traeger App (which has over 1500 recipes!) syncs to your grill and built-in meat thermometer, coaching you through the entire process. If you are in the market and you want to buy a grill that you can cook on for years to come, look no further than Traeger Grills.
