The MENtal Muscle-Up Podcast: The Cure For Mental Masturbation

Why Losing Weight Is Always A Losing Battle

• Season 2 • Episode 24

🤔 EP048 - If you’re trying to lose weight so you can look, feel, and perform your best, to weigh, or not to weigh, that is the question. If striving to hit your ideal weight is hindering your progress more than it is helping, what is an alternative metric to measure if the scale just ain’t cuttin’ it for you?

“Whenever you find yourself on the side of the majority, it’s time to pause and reflect.” - Mark Twain

🎙️ In today’s PodWod, we be crushing our PHYSICAL Health & Fitness.

FACT - You know that learning toy we all played with as kids that had different shapes and we had to fit the right shapes in the right holes? It’s funny to me that kids who can barely speak can figure that out, yet the most educated people on the planet in the health and fitness world still haven’t figured out that using weight as a metric for health is like trying to fit the square peg in the round hole. No matter which way you turn it, it doesn’t fucking work.

🤝 Help a Brotha Out! If you find value in today’s PodWod, please help others who may need to hear today’s message by rating and reviewing the podcast. A minute or two of your time could help save a lifetime of suffering for one of our fellow Brothers out there.
