Episode description

Obviously we all need to be exercising daily, and 99% of us could be doing more than we already do.

But there’s some common mistakes beyond not doing enough exercise that keeps people trapped.

If you want to lose weight, cardio is not the best exercise for you. Cardio is great for mental health, as well as lung and cardiovascular health. But it’s really not very useful for weight loss.

Instead, you need to be lifting weights to put on muscle if you really want to speed up your weight loss.

Another common mistake is doing too much high intensity interval training if your body is stuck in a stress response. Now don’t get me wrong, HIIT is one of the best forms of exercise out there.

But if your body is pumping too much cortisol and other stress hormones every day because of too much emotional stress, or because you’re dealing with chronic illness from underlying biotoxins like mold toxicity, then the HIIT training can be too much of a good stress and will not only prevent you from losing weight, but can actually cause weight gain!
