Welcome to the Mind Muscle Connection Podcast!

In this solo episode, I talk about 7 Biofeedback Markers I Use With Clients To Lose Fat and Build Muscle. You’ll hear why “how you feel” matters more than what the scale says, and how to start paying closer attention to your internal markers instead of just chasing numbers.

I cover the most important feedback markers I track with clients every week and why these markers give us better insight into what’s actually working and where things may be going off-track. Don’t miss out on this insightful episode!

Let’s talk about:

• Introduction
• Why most programs overlook how you feel
• What Biofeedback Markers to Track
• Subjective vs Objective Data
