Social media can be a double-edged sword when it comes to your health. On one hand, fitness influencers can inspire us with workout tips, healthy recipes, and motivation to move. On the other, they can leave us feeling confused, guilty, or even tempted by quick fixes that never deliver.

 

In this Monday Mile episode, Kevin is joined by Coach Jess to tackle the messy reality of navigating social media in today’s fitness world. Together, they break down:

  • The positives of fitness influencers - and how they can provide real ideas and motivation.
  • The pitfalls of doomscrolling, comparison traps, and conflicting advice.
  • Simple filters you can use to separate trustworthy guidance from empty hype.
  • Practical tips to clean up your feed and follow accounts that truly serve your health journey.

 

If you’ve ever felt overwhelmed by endless fitness reels, diet “hacks,” or supplement ads, this episode is for you. Learn how to scroll smarter, reclaim your time, and focus on the basics that actually build a lean, strong, healthy body after 50.

 

Lace up, hit play, and walk with us as we uncover whether those influencers are helping your health - or hijacking it.
