The answer is yes... but probably not in the way most people think.
In this episode, I draw on over 20 years of personal experience, my own 70lb weight loss journey, and 17 years of coaching people to lose weight and improve their fitness to explain where running fits into the bigger picture.
You'll learn:
Whether running is an effective tool for fat loss
Why exercise alone rarely solves the problem
The biggest mindset mistake people make about their weight
Why you should separate your identity from the number on the scales
The "bottomless pit" problem with using exercise to burn calories
Why marathon training and weight loss need careful balance
How to use running as part of a sustainable long-term lifestyle
The mindset shift that helps people lose weight—and keep it off
Whether you're training for your first marathon, hoping to lose a few pounds, or simply want a healthier relationship with running and your body, this episode will help you take a more balanced approach.
