real talk and actionable advice for building your confidence, honoring your body, and unconditionally loving your authentic self.

Stay tuned if you're ready to embrace your real, let's get it, let's go.

Hello, hello and welcome back to another episode of the Embrace Real Podcast. I feel honored and grateful that you are here spending some time with me today. Today we're chatting

about muscle. I know so many of you are afraid of building muscle, yet you want to lose weight or you want to change your body I'm here to give you a news flash that the best way to build the body that you want is through building more muscle.

Cardio does not typically build muscle and actually

overdoing cardio can contribute to the breakdown of muscle and when you're not building

muscle you're going to continue to struggle to build

the body that you want plain and simple. So in this episode of Embrace Rail I'm going to

share seven reasons why having muscle is so important.

But before I do, I had to share this review of the day.

A amazing woman.

Wow, just wow, every single episode is seriously gold. Julie is so knowledgeable and so real.

I've been following Julie since September and my mindset has changed so much about myself,

fitness and nutrition, and Life in General.

gives me goosebumps every single time.
