In This Episode:  

• Brandon's approach is sustainable; he believes your diet should be the way you eat and not a fad diet filled with restrictions. 
• With so much conflicting information about what to eat, it isn’t easy to find reliable science-based strategies that work for a lifetime.
• Learn the sustainable way to approach food, nutrition, and lifestyle changes. The yo-yo diets stop here.
• The new Fire Within App, now available on Apple and Android, has six weeks of weight training, body weight, and abs program.
• We break down some of the most common fad diets with the pros and cons of each.
• We talk about counting macros on apps like my fitness pal and Sarah's experience where she tracked it for a year, which is why Brandon doesn't coach macros. It is possible that for some, it leads to a constant measurement of everything that can lead to eating disorders.
• Brandon talks about his approach and how he trains his clients.
• Jenny talks about her evaluation with Brandon and what she learned.
• With so much information about diet and exercise, where do you start? We talk about that. Everybody is different, and the goals should be personalized and based on their goals.
• A critical aspect of a successful and sustainable approach to fitness is to start by understanding your why. One tip is to just keep asking why at least seven times to uncover the intrinsic answer to why you want to work out and then use that as your motivation to keep going.
