Show Notes
It's all too normal to feel guilty about enjoying your favorite holiday treats and try to "burn it off" the next day in your workout.
In this episode, I'll discuss why this isn't recommended or effective. I'll talk about why it leads to burnout and how it actually isn't likely to increase your overall deficit and make a dent in burning extra calories.
Let's re-write fitness norms. Let's use our workouts to build ourselves up, not punish ourselves.
