Eps 405: Why Your Workouts Stopped Working (And What to Do Instead)
You're showing up. You're eating better. You're staying consistent. So why isn't your body responding? It's not that you're not trying hard enough. Your body is just in a completely different season than it used to be. And most women aren't being told that.
In this episode, I break down the two missing pieces: what's actually happening underneath the surface when your body stops responding, and why pushing harder is often the thing making it worse. We also cover what your body actually needs right now, from foundations like sleep and nourishment, to adjusting your workouts and understanding what your data is really telling you.
If you've been doing everything "right" and still hitting a wall, this episode will tell you exactly why and what to do instead. 🎧 Listen now.
