Summary
Join the next intake of Start With 6 here: www.coachianwood.com/startwith6 Fat loss is often described as a marathon, but what if that mindset is actually slowing your progress down? In this episode, I explain why fat loss works far better as a series of short, focused “sprints” rather than one long, never-ending effort. You’ll learn how structured fat-loss phases improve motivation, adherence and long-term results, and why having a clear finish line changes everything. In this episode we cover: Why the “fat loss is a marathon” mindset fails so many people How sprint phases improve focus, urgency and consistency The role of maintenance phases in making results stick What a realistic fat-loss sprint actually looks like How to use sprint cycles to finally stop “trying” and start finishing fat-loss phases Coaching enquiries: Visit 👉 www.coachianwood.com
