Summary

A WORKOUT EPISODE WITH AN EXPERT IS HERE!!!! This week, personal trainer Alex Barton is here to chat about how to train smart and see real results. We dive into why having a professional calculate your goals beats just looking things up online, and why not all workout fads on social media are worth your time. From debunking myths like "cardio will make you less hungry" to understanding the difference between Zone 2 and Zone 3 cardio, we cover it all - thanks to Alex's expertise.

Alex shares how to build a science-based fitness routine tailored to your goals, whether you want to just start getting into a gym routine, gain muscle, or lose weight. We also talk about dealing with gym intimidation, staying consistent with new routines, and maintaining your fitness while traveling - which takes practice.

We tackle some rapid-fire questions on balancing your diet with exercise, boosting metabolism, and the pros and cons of intermittent fasting. Tune in for practical advice, a clear plan to see real change, and a downloadable workout routine to help you stay on track!

information overload all the time and we don't know where to turn or what to do with

0:33.2

fitness related questions. And granted, I'm in the fitness industry, but I am not a fitness

expert. I consider myself a brand expert and maybe like maybe a podcast expert, but I would not say
