Manage episode 398281660 series 3449217
If you've been counting the calories you burn in your exercise activities and giving yourself permission to eat more or less based on that, then this episode is for you!
Because more than likely, that method is not serving you - if maintaining a healthy bodyweight or losing weight is your goal.
In this episode, Igo through the flaws of this type of strategy, and how harmful it can be to your relationship with food and exercise.
You'll get answers to questions such as:
🔅 Are sports watches and exercise machines reporting calories accurately?
🔅 How your body reacts when you do a lot of cardio
🔅 Why burning calories to earn your meals is a bad idea
Enjoy the episode!
