When it comes to fitness, so much attention is put on your actions – what you should and shouldn’t do. Eat this, not that. Lift this way, not that. Train like this, not that. I’m not suggesting you shouldn’t do stuff, but I think you need to stop focusing all of your attention on actions and start paying more attention to your thinking. It’s you thinking that determines whether you stick to a plan or not. It’s your thinking that keeps you going when the going gets tough. So in this episode of the podcast, how your thinking (more than anything else) determines your results.

It’s that time of year when the days are getting shorter and colder, the holidays are upon us, and all you feel like doing is staying in and eating comfort food. I get it. I feel this too. And just so you know, I’m not opposed to eating comfort food, but I believe there’s a right way and a wrong way to do it. I also believe there are a lot of misconceptions about using food to comfort ourselves so I want to address that here today too.

The holidays can be a very difficult time of the year for a lot of people. Shopping for gifts, planning social events, spending more time with family, and the added end-of-year demands at work can all lead to feeling more stressed and overwhelmed. Not to mention the shorter days, colder temperatures, and lack of sunlight can make getting outside to exercise more challenging. It can be very easy to just say “F-it” and blow off all your diet and exercise plans, stay indoors watching Netflix with a big ol’ glass of wine, and hibernate until the New Year. But if that’s not how you want to roll in 2025, I’ve got an alternative solution for you. In this episode of the podcast, I share a few simple tips for handling the holidays like a badass so you can slide into the New Year feeling good about yourself (which is not the way most people do it).

I’ve received a lot of comments on my social media posts over the years basically saying that if you are a runner, you shouldn’t need help losing weight. Comments like, “If you want to lose weight, just run more”, or, “I lost all the extra weight when I did the ‘couch to 5k’ training program”, or, “If you’re a runner, you shouldn’t need to lose weight.” The main thought behind these types of comments is that if you run, you shouldn’t be overweight and that running, in and of itself, is all you need to do in order to lose those extra pounds. These are nice ideas, but they just don’t hold up in reality. In this episode, I’ll address all the reasons why runners need help losing weight, and why it doesn’t involve running more miles.

Just about all of us will eventually engage in some type of self-sabotaging behavior. Most of the time though, you don’t know when you’re doing it.

This past weekend I had the privilege to be a part of the 49th annual Marine Corps Marathon. Just to be clear, I did not run the race, instead, I was able to be a part of this amazing event from a very different perspective, one that most people don’t ever get to experience. It was a very emotional experience for me. I came away from the race feeling all the feelings and it really renewed my love of the sport of running. There were several other big takeaways too so I decided to organize my thoughts a little and share all of this with you here on the podcast.

When you think of discipline, what comes to mind? For some, it conjures up images of obeying rules and doling out punishment for anyone who disobeys. But when I think of discipline I think of training myself to do something day in and day out, usually something I don’t feel like doing. I never think of discipline as punishment, but rather a method of achieving whatever worthwhile goal that I want for myself. If there’s something big that you want for yourself, I’m telling you, there’s no magic formula, it just takes practicing the art of discipline to get it. So in this episode of the podcast, I’ll be exploring what it means to be practicing the art of discipline so that you can achieve everything you want in your life.

Lots of factors go into whether or not you will successfully achieve a goal. How bad you want it, where you are in your life, your physical limitations just to name a few. But one of the most powerful indicators of success is a shift in your mindset. Most people do not consider their mindset when they set out to accomplish a goal like losing weight. They just start with, “what should I eat and not eat?” So in this episode, I want to talk about the mindset shift required in order to succeed and accomplish everything you want in your life.

I talk a lot about carbs here on the podcast, mainly why it’s advised to keep your carbs low if you’re a runner who wants to lose weight and use body fat as fuel for running. I realized I haven’t spent much time talking about the other macronutrients – fat and protein.

I talk a lot about losing weight and eventually getting to your “natural weight” but I’ve never really taken the time to explain what your “natural weight” is. Several people have been asking me about this lately so I thought it would be a good idea to dig into this topic here on the podcast today. Listen, losing weight is a very personal thing, and there’s not one right way to do it. Lots of different things work for different people. The same goes for what your natural weight should be – it’s a very personal thing. And yet, lots of people have lots of opinions about what YOUR natural weight should be. In this episode, I’m going to talk about some of the standards we use to determine ideal weight, and why they don’t work for everyone, what “natural weight” means, and how to tell when you’re at your natural weight.

If you have a big goal like losing weight and keeping it off, then you know it is going to take a while to reach that goal. One of the main reasons people don’t reach their weight loss goal is that they lose motivation. They do OK for a few weeks or a few months and then all that motivation they had at the beginning is gone and they give up on themselves. The interesting thing is that there are different motivation strategies that work for different people. Not everyone responds to the same types of motivation. So today I’ve got a few motivation strategies to keep you moving forward so you can actually achieve those big goals.

When it comes to weight loss tips, one principle stands out among all the others: counting calories. For decades, you’ve been told that the only way to lose weight is to make sure you count all your calories. Honestly, if this worked as advertised, we wouldn’t have a crisis of obesity here in this country, and no one would struggle with their weight. But the truth is, it doesn’t work. Today on the podcast, why counting calories doesn’t work and what you should probably do instead.

There is so much contradictory advice out there when it comes to losing weight. It’s really hard to know what’s right and what’s just BS.

We are all different and there’s simply not one approach that will work perfectly for everybody. With that principle in mind, for this episode of the podcast, I want to share with you my top 10 weight loss tips for runners.

A lot of runners believe that when it comes to exercise, running is more than enough. They love running, do it 6-7 days a week, and don’t feel the need to do anything else. Then there are those runners who believe in the power of cross-training. Some believe in it so hard that they find themselves doing some form of cross-training 6-7 days a week in addition to running! Wherever you fall on this spectrum, there are some forms of cross-training that provide more benefits to you as a runner. In this episode, I explain what cross-training is, what it isn’t, and offer suggestions for the best cross-training exercises for runners.

When it comes to changing your diet in order to lose weight or just be healthier, most people feel like whatever they do is too restrictive.

So many people I talk to about losing weight or running faster tell me they just can’t seem to make any progress because they feel stuck. This is a really tough place to be because when you feel stuck, it’s like there’s nothing you can do to get out of it. You feel like nothing will ever work, you feel discouraged, and you feel defeated. And what do you do when you feel defeated? You give up. You quit. Why bother eating right if you’re never going to lose weight? Why bother doing the speedwork if I’m never going to break 4 hours in the marathon? There’s a better way to approach these things. Today on the podcast, what to do when you feel stuck so you can get back on track making progress toward your goals. Work With Me Interested in working with me in a one-on-one setting?

Oftentimes when we take on a big challenge like changing how we eat or training for a marathon, we don’t get the results we want fast enough. The weight isn’t coming off as quickly as you want or the training isn’t getting any easier, running is still really hard. When you’re focused solely on the end result, and you’re not there yet, you can begin to hate the process it takes to get you there. This is not a very useful way to approach anything worthwhile. Today, I’m talking about learning to love the process and how this simple mindset shift will absolutely change how you approach everything that you do.

In this episode I explain why you shouldn’t be setting small, easily-achievable goals, but instead working on achieving impossible goals.
