As I’ve gotten older, I’ve seen and felt the importance of maintaining a healthy, active lifestyle.
Not only do you feel better in the present, but you prevent future health problems from messing with your quality of life.
I truly believe enhancing your mind and body with proper fuel is essential to a healthy quality of life.
That’s why I’m so excited to talk with Fitness Coach Michael Williams today.
Michael is a certified personal trainer who specializes in women’s fat loss.
While there’s so much more to being healthy than getting rid of body fat, a lot of the health and physical activity benefits will result in less fat!
Michael and I are talking about the importance of prioritizing health for women, building healthier habits, and staying consistent with healthy living.
As we age, maintaining a healthy, active lifestyle becomes increasingly important—not just to feel better now but also to prevent future health issues.
Michael shares his expert insights on building healthy habits that last, the connection between diet and fat loss, and staying consistent with working out even when life gets hectic.
Together, we’ll explore actionable steps to help women embrace healthy living without feeling deprived or overwhelmed.
Here’s a glance at this episode:
- [04:40] Michael always leads with “why”. What’s your why for wanting to get in shape? Understanding that helps you stay on track.
- [12:43] Eating 1 or 2 meals a day doesn’t cut it for women. Michael shares what women need to do to see the fat loss results they want.
- [24:50] YouTube can be a great resource for learning how to properly train and lift weights, especially if you’re tight on funds.
- [31:40] Michael shares that the scale isn’t the best indicator of progress, especially if weightlifting is involved. “The scale is a liar”.
- [51:20] You don’t have to deprive yourself when you go out to eat, just do your best to plan your meals out as best as possible.
“The scale is a liar. Progress is more than a number—it’s about feeling strong, energetic, and confident in your body.”
