Episode 58- How Running Will Allow You Stop Thinking About Weight Loss
In this episode, Sam Breiter shares with you how to shift your mindset from focusing on losing weight to discovering a lifestyle and fulfilling journey through running. This shift is aimed at achieving long-term health benefits and, over time, reaching and maintaining your weight loss goals.
Sam discusses the two weight loss journeys he has experienced, and both times, running was not a part of his life. When he has been committed to running, he has been able to maintain his weight loss. He then shares tip and advice on nutrition habits, injury prevention, how to stay motivated with running, etc...
Having running in your life allows you to make health decisions based on how they will impact your running performance rather than how you look in the mirror. This approach, instead of providing a quick fix, helps build habits for long-term health and happiness. Enjoy this episode, and "Don't Forget to Run, Breiter."
