We’ll be releasing a series of short episodes where we creators have real conversations about fitness, habits, and lifestyle. We pull back the curtain on how it looks to adapt our goals in busy seasons, build habits, and ultimately make our health and fitness a priority as humans living full lives. Expect real and raw conversations (and likely a dose of humor) that you don’t get in a 30-minute workout video or community post. We will also answer common questions we’re seeing directly from you! We hope this offers an extra way to connect with your trainers while learning a thing or two along the way.

After a brief discussion on whether or not we feel pre-workout routines are important, we share the steps each of us take. We talk about everything from our fueling preferences, playlist choices, and how we approach our own warm-ups, to mindset hacks and clothing choices. Something we all agreed on is that having a pre-workout routine of some sort IS important, but what that looks like will vary from person to person (and even day to day).

A Fitness Blender member recently wrote in to the community -  “In my life I have utilized working out to get me through the hard times in life and recently have had some potentially worrying news and I’m finding it hard to get myself moving even though I know I will feel better afterwards. I would love to hear how others move through this and any tips or advice on what works for you?” In this first episode of Trainer Talk: A Fitness Blender Podcast we are breaking this topic down with Nicole, Tasha, Patrice, and Brian.
