This week I’m joined by Joe Holder: performance specialist, Nike Master Trainer, and wellness educator who’s worked with everyone from Victoria’s Secret models to elite athletes, for a conversation that will completely reframe how you think about health and fitness. We get into why workouts don’t always need to be so hard (and how training too intensely can actually make you look and feel worse), the real reason women sometimes get “puffy” from exercise, and how applying a “dose mentality” can optimize results without obsession. Joe breaks down the importance of recovery, why the HIIT revolution did more harm than good, and how physical resiliency builds mental toughness. We also dive into the psychology of wellness including orthorexia, body dysmorphia, and how to pursue health without letting it consume you—plus intuitive eating, carb cycling, and his simple, grounded hacks for starting the day with presence and balance.This episode is brought to you by Bellami Hair, Boncharge, Field of Greens, Just Thrive, Fatty15, Ro Body, and Quo.Go to BellamiHair.com and use code WELL to get 25% off your first clip-in order and book a free consultation.
