I’m excited to do another fun Q&A, all about the PHYSICAL side of fitness! We’re talking lifting, cardio, muscle growth, and the questions that always seem to come up when you’re trying to “do it all.” Maybe you’ve wondered whether your 10K steps and extra cardio are ruining your gains. Maybe you’ve thought you needed to overhaul your split (and change up your workouts every month), or you’re struggling with working out through burnout. If any of that sounds familiar, this one’s for YOU.Honestly, I don’t have a “set” answer for most of these questions, because it really comes down to your goals, and the season of life you’re in. There’s no one-size-fits-all - there never is when it comes to health and fitness!Don’t overcomplicate this stuff - consistency, recovery, and intention will ALWAYS win, friend!Episode recap:Why cardio won’t hurt your gains (but lack of rest & recovery will)Why there’s no “perfect” split for muscle growthHow to approach your workouts if you’re struggling with burnoutMy thoughts on changing your workouts, strength training w/cardio, and Orange TheoryTracking your heart rate zone vs. calories burned during workoutsWhat to do if you’re getting 8k steps/day, but still want to increase movement & hit your goalsWhat to focus on if your goal is growing your glutesWhy you don’t need to do a “mini-cut” to lose 2-3 poundsLinks/Resources:Grab your FREE Body Recomp Meal Prep BlueprintListen to the Sol Fit PodcastJoin FIT CLUB, my monthly membership with workouts you can do at home or the gymPRIVATE COACHING is my 1:1 program (choose 3 or 6 month option)Connect with me on Instagram @kristycastillofit and @unfuckyourfitnesspodcast so we can keep this conversation going-be sure to tag me in your posts and stories!Join my FREE Facebook group, Unf*ck Your FitnessClick HERE for my favorite fitness & life things!Send me a text with episode ideas or just to say hi!
