Many people take up a sport because they want to lose weight. The problem is that they also often want to get results, PBs or go fast. The bad news is that the training to lose weight and training for performance are very different. We aren't saying you won't lose weight if you are training for performance just like you won't get better if you are training to lose weight. The problem is if you do not take the time to do them both properly there is a good chance you will lose motivation and give up at both.

This week we talk all about the differences between training for weight loss and training for performance. Things like different approaches to exercise and nutrition that may surprise you and may ultimately derail your goals if you neglect them. This episode was a lot of fun! We discuss two articles, the first that tells you where your weight goes when you lose it (it isn't to your enemies) and the second is whether your personality is making you fat.
