If your body isn’t absolutely wrecked after you strength train, did you even strength train? If you are nodding along to that sentence, prepare to have your mind blown. I am joined by Dr. Shannon of @dr.shannon.dpt to debunk common fitness trends and tell us why gentle consistency is the key to long-term muscle growth and overall health. 

Dr. Shannon is a former physical therapist and the founder of Evlo Fitness. Her goal is to educate about the science of exercise so more women can get stronger without wearing their bodies down. Dr. Shannon has been personal training and teaching fitness for over 13 years. She has experience teaching various formats at gyms and studios, including kickboxing, yoga, strength, barre, and more. Shannon created Evlo to prove that fitness doesn't have to wear you down to build you up.

Whether you’re navigating fitness during pregnancy, trying to avoid chronic pain, or just looking for a balanced approach to exercise, this episode offers valuable strategies and perspectives. So put down that booty band and dive into what will actually move the needle in your fitness journey.
