Summary
In this episode, I sit down with Mark Ennis to talk about why so many people struggle with weight loss, stress, and hormones—even when they feel like they’re doing everything “right.” If you’ve been stuck in a cycle of dieting, endless cardio, and frustration, this conversation is for you.
We understand why too much cardio can make things worse—spiking cortisol, messing with sleep, and making fat loss harder. Mark explains why strength training, especially for women, is a game-changer for balancing hormones and getting real results. Plus, we talk about something most fitness programs ignore—how men and women need to train differently because their bodies aren’t the same. Ignoring this has led to a rise in inflammation, fertility struggles, and a ton of other health problems.
We also dive into the dark side of the fitness industry—why influencers push unrealistic programs that don’t work for people with jobs, families, and actual responsibilities. Mark shares his journey through anorexia, obesity, and self-doubt, and what he would say to his younger self if he could go back.
Key Takeaways:
-
Fixing hormone imbalances first makes losing weight way easier.
-
The right information can change everything—ask better questions and trust the right people.
-
We're all unique, so what works for one person might not work for another.
