    Fitness: Rage workouts are trending but are they helping or hurting your mental health

    Using anger as fuel for exercise feels powerful in the moment, but the long-term impact on your mental fitness may surprise you.

So what is actually happening beneath the surface? In this insightful breakdown, fitness presenter and mental fitness coach Liezel van der Westhuizen shares how to shift from reactive training to intentional movement. Learn how to use exercise as a tool for emotional regulation rather than emotional escape, and discover practical strategies that help you train smarter, recover better, and build resilience that lasts far beyond the workout.
