Ep 62 // Ben Carpenter: Health vs. Fitness, navigating dietary advice on social media, body image & motivation.

⁠⁠In this episode we got got the pleasure of sitting down with a talented friend of ours, Ben Carpenter; Personal trainer and author of the new book Everything Fat Loss. Ben has spent a greater portion of his life working in the fitness industry, answering questions with simple, unbiased, evidence based answers. We got the chance to chat with Ben about his own personal experience going from a fitness model to a health and fitness educator. We got a look at the reality of living at an extremely low body fat percentage and how it can take a toll on your mental and physical health. And we also got some sound advice from Ben on how to navigate dietary and weight loss advice on social media . After listening to this episode you'll learn about the importance of body image and motivation for successful weight loss and hopefully leave with a better understanding of how to set weight loss goals realistic for your own unique lifestyle. That just barely skims the surface of this incredible conversation, but we hope you enjoy this one as much as we did!
