Summary
Dr. Shannon Ritchey is a former physical therapist, fitness trainer with over 15 years of experience, and founder of Evlo Fitness. She educates on the science of exercise, specifically teaching women how to build muscle will less wear-and-tear on their bodies. Today on the show we discuss: why women don’t need “women-specific” workouts to build muscle, why training near failure is the key to real results, how to structure your workouts for strength and body recomposition, why lifting heavy won’t automatically make you bulky, how protein and a small calorie deficit support fat loss, and why consistency, self-talk, and body image matter just as much as the workout itself and much more.
