Ever felt like you're spinning your wheels in the gym, going all out but not seeing the results you want? You might be falling into the trap of overtraining, a common pitfall in the quest for fitness. Join me, Courtney, your personal trainer and movement specialist, as we unpack why 'no pain, no gain' isn't always the best mantra. We'll delve into the science behind overexertion and how it leads to cortisol overload, causing fatigue, soreness and a plateau in your fitness progress. In this episode, we'll be pioneering a new path to fitness, one that respects our bodies’ need for balance and relaxation.

As we debunk the myth of 'more is always better', we'll explore alternative fitness strategies that blend intensity with relaxation. We'll talk about the magic of yoga, Pilates, and no-jumping strength classes that focus on holistic wellness rather than just brute strength. We'll discuss how movement in your daily life can contribute significantly to your overall health. The traditional fitness mindset is challenged as we embrace a gentler, more sustainable approach to health and fitness. So, buckle up and prepare for a paradigm shift - this episode might just change the way you approach your workouts forever!
