What is going on guys? Welcome back to another episode of the Eric Roberts

Fitness Podcast. I hope that you are doing

super well. Listen in this podcast today we're talking about stress and I got a

lot of stuff that I want to talk about with stress I want to talk about how it impacts and affects your progress.

I want to talk about ways that you can manage it. I want to talk about supplements. I want to talk about exercise

and dieting and how that correlates into stress as well because you

probably heard and hear a lot of things on a day-to-day basis.

If you're on social media at all whatsoever, you hear and see a lot of things I just made a little

Instagram video yesterday about like there was like five people in a row just like saying all this like absurd things about dieting like only eat organic don't eat organic

you can you have to cut out gluten oh somebody said oatmeal pisses them off I'm like and

I think somebody commented they were like, what did

oatmeal do to you? Like, did it steal your girl? Like, did it hit on your wife?

Like what happened, bro? And then there was some, you know, sugar is poison.

It's like, you hear all this shit. So so when we talk about stress I'll be able to hopefully

in this podcast give you a deep dive of everything correlated to stress and and how it kind of impacts

here not only just fat loss and muscle gain progress but also just like your overall health in general.

Let's start with how stress affects your progress. And I want to make this very clear because I don't want to say people will use stress as like a

scapegoat to not seeing progress, but a lot of people will put the blame on stress and say well I'm just

stressed like you probably hear that all the time or you probably hear other people say that a lot or you

might say it a lot I'm just stressed stress does not directly

impact your progress and let me explain when when you are stressed there is something in your body, it's called cortisol.
