Why You Work Out All The Time But Aren't Getting Any Stronger

Listen Later

“Why do I work out all the time, feel like I’m running in circles and running myself into the ground but seemingly getting nowhere?”

I get this question often. Maybe you can relate? I have a few ideas as to why this may be the case for you. So let’s break it down.

In this episode we talk about:

  • Why the answer to getting stronger might actually be to work out less. 
  • Why group fitness classes can only take you so far. 
  • The truth about lifting heavy weights and building muscle. 
  • How to make sure you're not conflating getting stronger and looking "toned".
  • Why tracking your progress isn't inherently a "diet culture" behavior.
  • Some encouragement that you're not broken if this is you. <3
