Are you stuck in the cycle of overtraining, endless cardio, or thinking heavy compound lifts are your only option for building muscle? This episode is here to set the record straight. I’m diving into the most common fitness myths that hold people back and sharing practical, evidence-based tips to help you train smarter, not harder.

🎧 In this episode, we’ll cover:

• Why you don’t need to leave the gym drenched in sweat or sore to see progress.
• The truth about cardio vs. strength training for fat loss.
• Why lifting weights won’t make you bulky (promise!).
• The daily calorie budget: what it is and why it’s a game-changer.
• How delaying nutrition post-workout can hurt your fat loss goals.
• Why you don’t have to force yourself to do heavy deadlifts and back squats if they wreck your body.

💡 Plus: Learn why doing less can sometimes lead to more progress and how to stop spinning your wheels chasing fitness myths.

If you’re ready to ditch the gym myths, feel and look better, and actually enjoy your workouts, this episode is for you.
