Stop Obsessing Over Calories Burned

"The purpose of exercise is to make your body stronger, not to chase calorie numbers.”

In this episode of the Healthy Systems Podcast, I’m here to tell you that chasing calories burned might actually be holding you back. I’ll explain why those numbers can be misleading and share how a shift in focus could lead to greater results and a healthier mindset.
