#168 - Underrated Habit For Fat Loss, Gut Health, And Longevity

The way you approached fitness in your 20s might not be working for you anymore in your 30s. How you recover, how you train, and how you eat, along with other things may need to change as you get older.

In this podcast, we'll talk through some of those things you may want to consider like:

 * How to train in a way that fits your body, goals, experience, and season of life.
 * Why training smart matters just as much as training hard, especially if you want to stay consistent, avoid nagging pain, and keep making progress long term.
 * Why cardio, walking, sleep, stress management, and relationships matter way more for your health as you get older. 
 * Why sustainable weight loss is less about knowing what to do and more about planning, habits, identity, environment, and learning how to live a healthy life without making fitness your entire life.

#162 - Staying Lean During Summer, Losing Fat Without Losing Muscle & More 

The Fit(ish) Project is a bridge for practical, straightforward fitness advice you can put into practice right away. I’m passionate about fitness, but I understand there’s a lot more to life than fitness.

A lot of people want to feel better, look better, and live longer, but they don't want to spend all their free time reading the latest nutrition research or logging 2-hour workouts every day.

So I break down what actually matters for results and better health in a simple, time-efficient way that fits into your real life. I'll share strategies and insights you can apply immediately that are backed by science, while still taking into account the mental side of fitness so we can make the changes stick for the long term. 

I'll mix in lessons from my 100-pound weight loss journey and years of coaching people in person and online, so what you learn is relatable, realistic, and doable.
