A few months ago, I asked you about your health and training. And almost all of you said some version of the same thing: "I feel like I'm doing all the right things... so why isn't it working?"You’re training. You’re walking. You’re eating protein. You’re trying to tick all the boxes.And yet you still feel stuck.You're tired from thinking about training. You're carrying the mental load of trying to get it right.The food. The workouts. The steps. The supplements. The sleep. The recovery. And somewhere along the way, you've lost clarity. In this EP, we're talking about the final layers of the Training Hierarchy:Exposure. Adaptation. Recovery. Because your bod doesn't change during training.She changes afterwards.And if you're not getting the results you want, it's often not because you're not trying.It's because the adaptation cycle isn't being completed.This episode will help you understand why.
