Beyond Burning Fat Podcast | Nutrition | Fitness | Mindset

Do you ever feel stuck with your health and fitness aspirations? Like each direction is a dead end, and you don’t know the way out? I hear you. That’s why this episode breaks down five different ways – mental and physical – that can provide some leverage in breaking free.

It’s that age-old question – and typically the answer you get is from one side of the fence: Yes or No. How can we examine this question objectively? We’ll discuss a balanced view, and bring in some new insights from the book THE DORITO EFFECT by Mark Schatzker. This may very well re-shape your thoughts around calories!

In Part Two we dive deeper into what to do if you found, from asking yourself the seven questions in last week’s episode, that your sleep needs a little work. Of course, we approach it a bit differently than the norm – with some more abstract approaches to bedtime, as well as the standards as a great reminder. It may just be what’s currently blocking you from your health goals.

You know that you need sleep – that’s not a revelation. But how does not getting enough, or good quality actually affect your waistline or your pant size? We discuss this in Part One, as well as highlight a neuroscientist’s discovery on why sleep is so important (you might not know!) and pose 7 questions to assess your sleep.

Everybody’s supplementing with protein powder it seems – which means there are a million choices. What should you look for? Should you even supplement? And if so, how much should you take? This week’s discussion will give you some solid roots in the choice that’s best for you.    

It’s an awful trap – If you eat “normal” or decrease your exercise, you gain weight! Is there a way out? What does it take to get to a healthy place where going on vacation or taking a break from exercise doesn’t have you going up a pant size? We’re talking all about metabolism and set point in this week’s podcast. Join me!

Here are five points about mindset that may very well have you saying “AH HA!”.  If you spend just a little time on these, you’ll likely see big changes in your life and health. To get the PDF Cheat Sheet go to www.MichelleFit.com/19download, or text 19download to the number 33444. 

What is a negative body image? And, what do you do about it? We go deep with seven powerful tools to begin to shift a negative body image, and I shed a bit of light on my own challenges back in my bodybuilding days as well as how I continue to work towards a healthy image today.

Here are my top five (at least for now!) truth bombs about living a healthy lifestyle – some you may be a bit familiar with, but we go a bit deeper. This may cause you to see a few aspects of healthy living a bit differently. Don't forget to subscribe to the podcast so you don't miss an episode!  Like what you hear?

Is there such a thing as “intuitive eating” that keeps you progressing toward (or maintaining) your fitness goals? And if so, how do you know if that intuition is on track? And to go a step further - how would you go about actually building an eating intuition that serves you? We unpack both of these questions in this episode, plus give you a practical approach in how to train your healthy eating intuition to serve you. I'd love to hear your thoughts! Visit me over at the site and leave me a voicemail asking YOUR burning question. I will use them on a future episode - just like personal coaching! Like what you hear? Then send yourself some seriously awesome karma (and make me smile really big!) and leave me an iTunes review! I can't thank you enough.    

We take on the “80/20 Rule” specific to the diet and exercise world – what you do 80% of the time will create your physique reality. Put another way: Your physique is a result of what you do (or don’t do) 80% of the time. How do you apply this rule, and who might this rule not work for? We answer those Q’s.
