Beyond weight loss: Redefining fitness with weight-neutral strength coach Mark Breedon

In today’s episode of Girls Gone Wellness, we’re joined by Mark, a weight-neutral strength coach, personal trainer, and nutritionist, who is changing the narrative around fitness. Mark’s refreshing approach to strength training moves beyond the number on the scale, focusing on health, self-confidence, and becoming stronger in mind and body.

This conversation highlights the numerous benefits of weight training that go beyond aesthetics, such as improved bone density, metabolism, energy, and stress management. We dive into how to build confidence in the gym, the differences between home workouts and gym workouts, how often and what types of exercises you should be doing, and whether supplements are worth it for new lifters. Plus, we discuss how much protein you really need, the importance of recovery and rest days, making progress, and debunking common myths in the weight training space.

If you're ready to shift your fitness mindset and train for health and strength rather than a number, this episode is for you!
