The Fit To Be Fierce Podcast

In this episode, I'm joined by Foundations of Food Freedom Coaching Client, Miranda Lambert, who shared the key lessons she's learned on her weight loss journey so far, as she's lost 86 lbs and completely turned her life around, stepping into the identity of a "fit woman". Get your pen and paper out for this one and take notes, because she shared tons of nuggets that you'll be able to take and apply today.
This episode will be a game-changer for you if you're a woman who:

1. Has struggled to get results with restrictive approaches
2. Wants the freedom to eat cheeseburgers and enjoy drinks with your girlfriends
3. Are hard on yourself after a day of "slipping up" or indulging
4. Want to positively impact your children, so they can grow up healthy + happy

In this episode, you'll learn

- How support from the right people is a key to success

In this episode, I break down the process of setting & enforcing boundaries in your life into 5 simple steps. Boundaries are something we all need, and if we don't have them, we'll end up incredibly unhappy & unfulfilled.

Setting boundaries isn't enough though. They're no good if you don't communicate them AND enforce them. A boundary that isn't enforced is basically just a wish, and that's not going to cut it.

In Part 3/4 of the COVID19 Mini-Series, fellow coach, Anthony Guzzo, and I get real with you as we explain why you’re putting all your eggs in the wrong basket.
In the fitness space right now, all the talk is about at-home workouts and everyone’s fretting they’ll lose all their progress without gyms being open. While that’s a fair concern, there are actually more important things to focus on right now that will take you further.
What’s even more important than your workouts is your NUTRITION right now. Now is the perfect time to prioritize making small improvements to your nutrition that will create BIG CHANGES in your health and weight loss journey.
Most people struggle with their nutrition due to a lack of knowledge and time, and right now, you likely have more time than you’ll ever have, not spending hours each day driving places and doing extracurricular activities outside the home.
You can get the most out of this time if you add structure to your day when it comes to eating, come up with a meal prep routine that works for you, and learn to create control around the mindless snacking.
We discuss each of those in this episode and give you a series of actionable steps you can take right now to start making huge strides in the right direction today!
Be sure to tune in to Part 4/4 to find out what mistakes to avoid during this time so you don’t halt your progress. The last thing you want is to step on the scale to find out you just gained the COVID19, and if you know what mistakes to avoid, you’ll have everything you need for the scale to move in the right direction!
When you listen to this episode, it would mean the world to us if you left an honest rating and shared a screenshot of the episode on your social media to help spread the word to those close to you that this does not have to be a time where we throw in the towel and lose all progress!

The Fit To Be Fierce Podcast welcomes its very first Orange Theory Fitness expert onto the show, as this week's episode features OTF Head Coach, Mike Dewar (IG: @dewinitbig). Mike is Head Coach of OTF Melbourne (Yes, AUSTRALIA!!).
Since a lot of our listeners are OTF athletes, this was a fun discussion to record. For those who don't know what Orange Theory Fitness is, it's a group fitness training modality that focuses heart rate interval training, essentially a HIIT workout.
Mike and I talked about:
-Qualities of some of the most successful OTF athletes
-Common mistakes he sees as a coach
-How to eat before your workouts
-How to properly recover and avoid adrenal fatigue
-How to maximize your workouts and not leave progress on the table
-How to build success with habits
...and SO MUCH MORE!!
We even did a rapid-fire Q&A session at the end, where he answered the following questions, directly from our listeners:
🍊What irritates the coaches?
🍊How to build strength with limited weight floor blocks?
🍊Is starting on the rower actually better for you?
🍊What’s the best way to transition from power-walking to running?
🍊Stretches to do postworkout?
🍊Best way to supplement weight training with OTF for building muscle?
🍊Opinion on 2x/day OTF?
🍊Should we be shooting for a certain amount of calories burned each workout?
If you found this episode helpful, please share it with your OTF Fam to help them as well!
When we stop leaving progress on the table, our goals become much more realistic, and that's what this episode will help you do!
If you enjoyed this episode, please consider subscribing & writing a review, as it really does help a lot!
