Coach Charlotte is back and this week she sits down to discuss why you SHOULDN'T—under any circumstance—be training fasted. Hot take? Stay with us.

Despite its popularity, she makes a compelling case for why training on an empty stomach may actually be doing more harm than good.

Training fasted inhibits muscle growth and there is actually data showing that this can lead to dropping lean mass first when in a caloric deficit.

In this episode, Charlotte breaks down the advantages of fueling your workouts with a pre-workout meal and shares practical strategies to make it work even when training early in the morning. Your meal doesn’t have to be extravagant, it just needs to be enough to fuel your session.

As always, it is our goal not only to supply you, the listener, with valuable insights on the topics or questions but also to plant some seeds for further research and thought. Be sure to like and subscribe and leave us a review if you loved this episode!

The conversation then shifts to a thoughtful and more personal discussion about navigating 2024 and setting meaningful goals for the year ahead. Sue and Alex share their expertise on common training pitfalls they see clients make when starting a new year, reveal their personal aspirations for 2025, and share their predictions for emerging fitness trends in the coming year.

In this powerful episode, Alex and Sue dive deep into a game-changing perspective that few are talking about: the science of asking better questions.

Have you ever felt like you're getting nowhere with your health goals? The problem might not be the answers, but the questions you're asking.

If you're tired of getting vague, unsatisfying answers about your health—this episode is your wake-up call. Listen in as they break down why the quality of your questions directly impacts the quality of your results and why the vague, wishy-washy questions we typically ask are holding us back.

This isn't your typical health advice episode—Sue and Alex share real, actionable strategies that will change the way you talk to your doctors, coaches, and most importantly, yourself. This episode will fundamentally change how you think about getting answers.

Transformation starts with curiosity and, by listening in, you’re taking the first step to unlocking a successful fitness journey.

We get it, taking time for yourself when there are a million things going on—you have kids or family members that need you, work is crazy, life is life-ing—can feel so selfish.

But what if we told you that taking that time for yourself is actually one of the MOST PRODUCTIVE things you can do—that giving yourself the chance to recharge will actually allow you to show up BETTER for those who need you?

That's exactly what Sue does in today's Fit Bit. She explains why taking care of yourself is NOT selfish, why you CAN'T push past 100% forever, and gives you tangible steps to start taking better care of yourself WITHOUT feeling guilty or overwhelmed.

As always, it is our goal not only to supply you, the listener, with valuable insights on the topics or questions but also to plant some seeds for further research and thought. Be sure to like and subscribe and leave us a review if you loved this episode!

Today, we're diving into a topic that is often overlooked, but is absolutely ESSENTIAL to accomplishing fitness goals—or better yet, any goal.

Life makes us think we have to go, go, go, and continue to push harder and harder to get where we want. Feeling drained, especially during this time of year? You aren't the only one.

What if rest was where the real progress happened? Rest isn't the enemy here, which may be a hard pill to swallow. Listen in as Sue debunks the myth that 'more is better' in this quick Fit Bit—then, get to planning your rest!

As always, it is our goal not only to supply you, the listener, with valuable insights on the topics or questions but also to plant some seeds for further research and thought. Be sure to like and subscribe and leave us a review if you loved this episode!

Today is a FUN one. Master of Ceremonies SueGAMES puts Alex through his paces with some fun (& fresh) trivia games. Listen in as they discuss their body and blood, Olympic trivia, popular snacks, and more. They even bring back a fan favorite—Muscle... or Dinosaur?!

And, of course, we want to hear from YOU! What would YOUR body and blood be? What do you think is worse? Do you agree/disagree with Alex's rankings? How many muscles or dinosaurs did you get (be honest)?
