## Resource

On this week's episode, we’re exposing the 5 most common fitness myths we hear as coaches. We get honest about our own mistakes, Ed training with a broken wrist to Meg’s fear of "man arms”, and reveal why most of what you hear in the gym is nonsense. Inside this episode: 🔥 Myth #1: Lifting weights makes women look masculine (Debunked). 🔥 Myth #2: If you aren't sweating, you aren't working (False). 🔥 Myth #3: You need to suffer to see results (The David Goggins problem). 🔥 Myth #4: You can target fat loss on your love handles (The hard truth). Plus, the team roasts Ed’s training history and we reveal which coaches still use supplements and which ones quit them cold turkey. Listen now through the link in our bio to fix your training mindset!
