    The Progress You're Missing in Your Relationship With Food

    Oftentimes, the reason we feel stuck in improving our relationship with food and our body isn't because we're not making progress. It's because we're looking for progress in the wrong place. Many of us have been conditioned to believe that progress means seeing fast results, feeling motivated all the time, always knowing exactly what to do, and staying perfectly on track with our eating and training. But I'd like to invite you to look for a different kind of progress. Because, in my experience, the progress that truly leads to a healthier relationship with food and your body is often much quieter. It's found in the small mindset shifts, the moments of self-compassion, and the little changes that don't always feel dramatic but lead to those moments when you stop and think, "Wow, I handled that so well." In this video, I'm sharing what that kind of progress looks like and how learning to recognize it can completely change the way you see your journey.

    How to Build Confidence Without Changing Your Body and Your Face

    In this episode, we'll talk about how to build confidence without changing your body or your face. For years, I struggled with social anxiety, low self-esteem and body image issues. I believed that if I could just lose enough weight or look different, I would finally feel confident and accepted. But even when my body changed, the insecurity never went away. In this episode, I share the mindset shifts that helped me break free from body obsession and finally feel secure in who I am. We'll talk about: Why getting clear on the life you actually want is more important than simply "wanting to become confident."How curiosity can replace self-judgment.The impact the people around you and your social media feed have on your confidence. How I stopped analyzing myself in the mirror.How wearing clothes that actually fit changed the way I felt about myself.The beliefs I let go of—and the new ones I chose to adopt instead.If you've ever struggled with body image, social anxiety, low self-esteem, or feeling like your worth depends on how you look, I hope this video reminds you that you are so much more than just your body.

    How I Ended 15 Years of Dieting and Food Obsession

    After 15 years of restrictive dieting and an obsessive relationship with food and exercise, I reached a point where I realized that if the way I was doing things was ever going to work... it would've worked by now. In this video, I share what finally made me let go of the endless cycle of dieting, why I started approaching training differently, and how those two decisions completely changed my relationship with food, fitness, and myself. I share how I've become stronger than I've ever been, training for one of the toughest strength certifications I've ever attempted, while enjoying food, not exhausting myself in the gym, and living a life that isn't controlled by my body or my workouts. If you've ever felt like trying harder only leaves you feeling more exhausted and not nearly as strong as you were hoping to be, I hope this video shows you there's another way.

    What to Look for in a Training Program When You Want to Build Strength

    In this episode, Marcus talks about what to look for in a training program, whether you're investing in one, downloading a free one, or putting one together yourself. We also covers a few simple ways to make the program you already have more rewarding.  In this video, I talk about what to look for in a training program, whether you're investing in one, downloading a free one, or putting one together yourself. I also covers a few simple ways to make the program you already have more rewarding.  Some takeaways from this video: Meaningful gains in strength, muscle, or athletic performance require specific attention to specific movements, exercises, drills, and practices, all organized into a well-thought-out program.What often damages people's relationship with training and exercise isn't the training itself. It's unrealistic promises and the misinformation surrounding those promises.How to make the most of the program you already have:Keep it simple. Focus your time and energy on high-value movements.Understand the difference between intensity and effort.

    My Training Program Is Not Making Me Stronger (I’m Exhausted!)

    In this episode, Marcus and Annabelle talk about how to create a training program that helps you build strength without feeling constantly exhausted, skipping gym days, or getting injured. Marcus, a personal trainer with over a decade of experience, takes a look at Annabelle’s training program and explains why it isn’t working, and what needs to change to build strength in a way that actually supports your life instead of getting in the way of it.

    "I'm losing control... but it feels like I'm eating enough"

    In this episode, I explore why we can't always trust our feelings when assessing whether we're eating enough. I unpack the common cycle of restriction, hunger, guilt, and loss of control, and explain why getting ahead of hunger is often one of the most important steps toward a calmer, more sustainable relationship with food. If you've ever felt stuck in this pattern, this episode is for you.

    Building Muscles Without 'Bulking & Cutting'

    The process of bulking and reducing, or bulking and cutting - intentionally gaining  weight while using weight training to gain muscle, then entering a fat loss phase - is something that’s talked about a lot in the fitness space. I’ve seen it be a normal part of some people’s journey’s, and I’ve seen it go horribly wrong.  In this episode, Annabelle is joining us to discuss some of her experiences and explore alternatives! But before we get into the episode remember - Please use discretion when choosing whether or not this episode is a helpful one for you. This is not a substitute for medical advice, and we are not recommending the “bulking & cutting” process.  Join the Strong Not Starving Community interest list: https://strongnotstarving.com/sns-community/ Book a Call with Marcus Here: https://form.jotform.com/240493269367062 Strong Not Starving Youtube: https://youtube.com/@strongnotstarving?si=zzmTveIdGUD0omuM Stay up to date with Strong Not Starving events and resources ⬇️⬇️⬇️  https://preview.mailerlite.io/forms/2452616/190543834178913405/share Website: www.strongnotstarving.com
