“We need to aspire to move better, not just move more.”

In this episode, Erin talks to Luke DePron about working with clients with injuries, how sitting all day can impact your body, and why you should invest in a stand-up desk. Erin reveals the irony as she has a stand-up desk saved to her Amazon cart and Luke suggests investing in the most helpful desk you can buy because sitting is mechanically wrecking your body. Also, Luke suggests a beginner should practice strength training three times a week, with workouts lasting no longer than 45 minutes. Then, Erin and Luke discuss what to do when your fitness goals reach a plateau & taking inventory on your health. Later, Luke says the ketogenic diet can help you lose weight; however you do not have to do the ketogenic diet to lose weight. Luke implores the audience to think about how food is serving their energy and sleep patterns. Lastly, we learn about self-motivation, growth mindsets, and forming habits.
