In this episode, I break down the process of setting & enforcing boundaries in your life into 5 simple steps. Boundaries are something we all need, and if we don't have them, we'll end up incredibly unhappy & unfulfilled. Setting boundaries isn't enough though. They're no good if you don't communicate them AND enforce them. A boundary that isn't enforced is basically just a wish, and that's not going to cut it. *********One more thing I think you’ll love...Our *TOTALLY FREE* DREAM LIFE FACEBOOK COMMUNITY!

In this episode, Chase and I discussed reverse dieting and how to make fat loss more effective, and more importantly, sustainable! Questions answered: What is the exit strategy for your diet? Do you have one? Do you need one? Why do so many people diet for so long and feel like they are not making any results - what do you do next? How long is your body capable of dieting? How to tell if your metabolism is exhausted and if it needs a break? Does your body go into survival mode? Should you eat more, EVEN if you are not losing weight eating 1,200 calories? Is a reverse diet or going to maintenance calories required to sustain fat loss? Will you gain weight or fat during a reverse diet? What are the 3 different outcomes of increasing calories? How does a reverse diet change your life - regardless of what happens to your weight. Energy, focus, mood, sex drive, stress level, workouts, productivity, etc. How to eat more calories with less volume - for those who struggle to eat enough calories. Is it a CALORIE problem or a VOLUME problem? If you are currently in a deficit (fat loss phase), what signs should you be looking for to know if it’s time to come out of the deficit and reverse back to maintenance. The loose structure of dieting - the different phases - how to utilize this method to MAXIMIZE your fat loss results AND love the lifestyle! Wrapping up - I put Josh in the “hot seat”, as he does with his guests on his show and went through some different topics, rapid fire!

In this episode, I break down how I hit my daily movement goal consistently, without having to think about it. If you don't have a daily movement goal, I totally recommend you do, as staying active is one of the greatest predictors of long-term health.  Whether you count your steps, close out your rings, use a Fitbit, or something else, hitting your movement goal daily doesn't need to come down to tracking the numbers closely each night before bed. Instead, follow my "4 Simple Steps to Hitting Your Movement Goal" framework, to know exactly what it takes to hit your goals.Where to find me:Instagram: @thejoshpierce(Free) FB Tribe: https://facebook.com/groups/fittobefierceIf you enjoyed this episode, please consider leaving a rating & review on iTunes to support The Fit To Be Fierce Podcast!

Have you been trying to lose weight since forever?!In this amazing live chat with Coach Robyn, we dived into WHY dieting all year round is a big no-no, and how you should be planning your weight loss phases instead.My clients see SO MUCH MORE SUCCESS when they learn they should be breaking up their weight loss phases.Long story short, your body will eventually catch on to what you’re doing and will get SUUUUPER EFFICIENT. You don’t want that.Efficient means that it gets by burning less calories (think like tightening up the budget). Burning less calories means you get to eat less food without weight gain AND it’s harder to lose weight.You want to be a calorie-burning machine, always and forever!Robyn and I nerd out on the WHY and HOW behind this stuff so you can do it on your own EFFICIENTLY and EFFECTIVELY......because let’s face it—nobody likes to try losing weight, only to see the scale not budge.Oh, and the FREEDOM and PEACE you get to enjoy when you’re not dieting all year long is incredible.Where to find Coach Robyn:Instagram: @robyn_yql_nutritionWhere to find me:Instagram: @thejoshpierce(Free) FB Tribe: https://facebook.com/groups/fittobefierceIf you enjoyed this episode, please consider leaving a rating & review on iTunes to support The Fit To Be Fierce Podcast!

There’s something coaches aren’t talking about, and it needs to be addressed…⁣⁣It breaks my heart that most of the women on my team were made to feel like they were the ones doing it wrong all along.⁣⁣😕 Coaches said they were underreporting what they were eating.⁣⁣😕 That the 1500 calories they “claimed” to be eating simply isn’t accurate, and that if it was, they would be losing weight, because CALORIE DEFICIT, right?⁣⁣Ladies, I want you to know this.⁣⁣If you’re eating 1,000-1,500 calories a day and are meticulously tracking, so that number is pretty damn accurate, I’M ON YOUR SIDE. 🙋🏼‍♂️⁣- You’re told to eat less and move more.⁣- You’re told to track your food.⁣- You’re told to create a calorie deficit.⁣- And you’re doing it all. Very well.⁣⁣What you AREN'T being told is that you can’t do that forever. You can’t do that for too long at all, before it becomes ineffective.⁣⁣Every single day, I’m helping women like you realize the reason you’re not losing weight is because you’re not eating enough. When you are eating the right amount, it does wonders:⁣1. Makes weight loss SO MUCH EASIER⁣⁣2. Helps you lose weight eating MORE FOOD⁣⁣3. Allows you to reach your goals with more of your favorite foods⁣⁣4. Gives you more freedom⁣⁣5. Empowers you to live the life you actually want to live⁣⁣And with all of that, you’re enabled to truly TRANSFORM into the woman you were meant to be.⁣⁣If this resonated with you, or you feel like this could be your problem, let’s chat about how you can turn this all around!Say HI on Instagram: @thejoshpierceFree Resources: https://empowermentcollectivecoaching.com/podcast
