Welcome to Motivation Monday, where every Monday we answer all of your questions and have some real talks about life & fitness & get you fired up for the week! In this episode we talk about how to have more energy during the day, when to join a gym and social media vs. reality.

(6:10) - Kyle quote: “The more you do, the more you get used to doing.” - Coach KG
(8:00) - Weekly thoughts/recommendations
(16:50) - Client shoutout: Becca H with Coach Jason
(19:30) - Question 1- I struggle with energy. I workout a fair amount, eat decently clean but find I’m pretty tired consistently, especially later at night. Any tips or strategies you recommend?
(29:01) - 2- Do you feel like your social media persona fully matches up with who you actually are? I know a girl who’s always posting about getting up at certain times, no cheat meals, etc and doesn’t live it in real life. Is there any part of what you say that isn’t fully true?
(36:00) - 3- I’ve been working out for almost a year now at home with a few dumbbells up to 20lbs, some bands and a few random things here and there. How do you know when it’s ‘time’ to make the leap into going to the gym?
Thanks for listening! We genuinely appreciate every single one of you listening.
