  • 291. Replay: Common Weight Loss Myths Debunked
    Jul 25 2025

    There’s no shortage of advice out there about how to lose weight. Just eat less, run more, count your calories, cut carbs, do a cleanse, go vegan, try keto—the list goes on and on. But how much of this advice actually works? And more importantly, how much of it works long term, especially for runners? In this episode of the podcast, I’m digging into some of the most common—and most misunderstood—ideas around weight loss. We’re talking about what’s true, what’s total BS, and how to take a more realistic, sustainable approach to getting leaner and stronger. So if you’ve ever felt confused or frustrated trying to figure out the “right” way to lose weight, you are definitely not alone. This is Episode 291: Common Weight Loss Myths Debunked, and my goal is to help you see through the hype so you can finally start making real progress.

  • 290. 3 Keys to Building Mental Toughness for Endurance Athletes
    Jul 18 2025

    Mental toughness is one of the most powerful tools you can develop as a runner — and also one of the most overlooked. Physical training is important, sure. But if you don’t also train your mindset, you’ll keep hitting the same walls over and over again. You’ll quit when things get hard, you’ll doubt yourself when you need confidence most, and you’ll never quite reach your true potential. In this episode of the Running Lean podcast, I’m sharing the 3 Keys to Building Mental Toughness for Endurance Athletes. These are the exact strategies I use in my own training and with every runner I coach. If you want to run stronger, go longer, and finally stop giving up when the going gets tough, this one’s for you.
