What's up, Achievers?! We received a question from a student named Melissa from William Patterson University, who was writing a paper for one of her classes entitled "How to Lose Weight Slowly" hence the title of our podcast. Lauren and I decided to not chat in advance before this episode and decided to see what naturally came out through conversation. We thought it came out pretty well - we hope you enjoy it! We hope you enjoyed this episode! If you did, we’d love you forever if you left a rating and review on iTunes - it seriously helps us out a lot! Please DM us @achievefitnessboston on Instagram if you have any questions you’d like us to answer. High fives and positive vibes! Jason and Lauren ...
What's up, Achievers?! In this episode, we discuss moving away from a weight loss mindset and shifting to more of a building strength/building muscle mindset. Lauren opens the show up with some of her personal story and struggles with body dysmorphia and then we transition to talking about the potential "cons" of having a weight loss mindset while discussing the "pros" of adopting more of a building strength mindset. This episode is quite free-flowing with a lot of different thoughts and tangents, but we wanted to make sure we touched on a wide variety of different adjacent topics. Lastly, we finish the show with some tangible action steps [20:57] you can take if you're more of a "structure" person! We hope you enjoyed this episode! If you did, we’d love you forever if you left a rating and review on iTunes - it seriously helps us out a lot!

What's up, Achievers?! Super fun episode for you all today - thanks for all of your questions!! In the first one, we discuss a question from a powerlifter mother of three who also happens to have diastasis recti. We recommend what diastasis is, what she should do to strengthen her core, while also modifying her training both physically and mentally (3:30)! We also cover proper hand care during "crossfit" type movements like kipping pull ups, toes to bars, muscle ups, etc. We discuss hand care for after the fact as well as potential preventative strategies (12:42). Lastly, we discuss our training strategies for an aspiring model! Our advice happens to go in the complete opposite direction of where we usually go with our answers (20:45) so you might find this one interesting! We hope you enjoyed this episode!
