About this episode
You have to lose weight to get healthy, right?
Wrong.
You have to get healthy to lose weight. That’s the real secret.
If I needed to lose 20 pounds, I’d focus on my metabolic health. And in today’s episode, I’m going to explain what that means and exactly how to do it. We’re going to go deep on what it takes to restore your health, the hidden reasons your body may be resisting weight loss, and how to determine the right target weight for the way you’re built.
On top of that, I’m outlining the markers of metabolic health so you can get a better idea of where you stand, and I’ll share step-by-step methods for healing your metabolism. Plus, I’m not just saying “You need to exercise,” I’m telling you which exercises you should be doing.
If you’re looking for smart strategies for getting healthy so you can finally lose weight, you do not want to miss this episode! Full show notes: jjvirgin.com/lose20 Watch the FULL VIDEO on my YouTube Channel: https://www.youtube.com/jjvirginvideos
