199| 3 Things That Go On My Planner Each Week To Stay Consistent With Healthy Habits

You know what to do. You've done it before. So why does consistency with healthy habits feel so impossible right now? If you're a mom who's scrambling constantly and dropping the ball on the healthy habits you know you need to implement,  this one's for you. In this episode, I'm sharing the three things I put in my planner every single week that keep me on track with my health goals, even with five kids and a packed schedule. These aren't complicated. They're not revolutionary. But they're the reason I stay consistent when most moms feel like they're constantly falling off. If you're tired of knowing what to do but not doing it, if weight loss feels like something you keep starting over on, and if you're ready to stop treating your health like the thing that gets bumped every time life gets crazy, listen to this episode. Because the problem isn't that you don't care. It's that you don't have the structure and accountability to make healthy habits stick. And that's fixable. -Rachel Next Steps:  Book a free discovery call [https://calendar.app.google/oUDT9emsuNd6iBxZA] to chat about my program Connect with me on IG [https://www.instagram.com/effectivefitnessforwomen/] and inside my FB community [https://www.facebook.com/groups/strengthtrainingformoms]

197| 3 Reasons Why I Used To Run Half-Marathons And Still Looked Exactly The Same

If you've been running to lose weight but the scale won't budge, this episode is for you. I used to run multiple half marathons - logging 3-4 runs per week with 7+ mile weekend runs - and my body looked exactly the same. In today's episode I'm sharing 3 key reasons why I didn't lose weight with running.  And if you are a mom trying to lose weight, I also share about a better approach: strength training. When you lift weights, your body adapts by building muscle - which burns calories 24/7, not just during your workout. This creates sustainable fat loss at a higher calorie level, so you're not starving yourself. In my Fat Loss Formula for Moms program, we focus on resistance training that actually changes your body composition while fitting into your busy life.
