You know what’s hard? Working out. Sure, it can be fun — but let’s be honest, it’s hard. Getting to the gym consistently takes real effort, and if you’re like most normal people, you want to make sure every second you spend inside the gym actually counts. In this episode of Fitness Stuff (for Normal People), your hosts Marianna and Tony are breaking down the Top 10 reasons your workouts aren’t getting you results. From what you’re doing during your workouts to how you’re recovering outside of them, they’re calling out the most common mistakes and helping you make the most of your time, effort, and sweat.
