It seems so obvious now that we understand this about stationary machines 🫠🙄
If you’ve been eating less, exercising more, and still experiencing unwanted body changes, this episode is for you. @nataliejillfitness a Licensed Master Sports Nutritionist and functional fitness trainer, joins me on The Better Podcast this week.
Natalie’s journey from rock bottom to 13 magazine covers in her 40s and 50s was not due to a better diet plan, but rather a complete overhaul of her False Assumed Truths (F.A.T.). She discusses the mechanics behind why chronic cardio is counterproductive in midlife, the accelerating bone loss caused by ellipticals, the falsehood of three sets of twelve, and the necessity of changing beliefs before any protocol can work.
I absolutely LOVED comparing notes with Natalie, honestly - there are so many takeaways and action steps for you in this one!
