Electrolyte packets are everywhere — but are they actually doing anything for most of us, or is it just really good marketing on top of salt water? In this episode, we break down what electrolytes actually are (and why sodium is the one that really matters), what the research shows about performance, hydration, and muscle cramps, and why more isn't always better — overhydration can be just as risky as dehydration. We also get specific about who genuinely benefits from electrolyte supplementation Online coaching www.shanewalshfitness.com/onlinecoaching

In this amazing client interview I had the pleasure of chatting with one of my 1-1 clients who is finishing up after 2 years. From years of yo-yo dieting to no food noise, to her amazing story and stopping emotional eating for good. Coaching https://www.shanewalshfitness.com/coaching/

In this episode of the podcast I had the pleasure of chatting with Donna Jackson for the Coaching with Integrity Podcast. In this episode, we're talking about one of the most misunderstood clients in the fitness industry: the chronic yo-yo dieter. The person who knows exactly what to do, has done it before, and somehow ends up back at square one. Again. We dig into why labelling these clients as lacking discipline is not only wrong — it's actively making things worse. Years of dieting leave a mark, not just physically but psychologically, and coaching them the same way you'd coach a first-timer is a recipe for another rebound. We cover: Why adherence failure is a coaching problem, not a client problem The emotional and behavioural patterns that keep chronic dieters stuck What the first 30 days with these clients should actually look like The dietary approaches most likely to backfire — and what to do instead Why maintenance is a skill set coaches need to actively teach How to build client autonomy so they don't need you forever If you want help breaking away from yo-yo dieting Apply for coaching here www.shanewalshfitness.com/onlinecoaching

There's a strange point in dieting that nobody warns you about. It doesn't happen on day one. Or even week one. It happens quietly, somewhere in the middle of your 10th restart. You stop seeing it as something you're doing… And you start believing it's just who you are. "I'm someone who falls off track." "I'm someone who starts strong and then loses it."  "I'm someone who always has to restart on Monday." And once that identity settles in, it changes everything. here is how to challenge this identity   Online coaching www.shanewalshfitness.com/onlinecoaching

This podcast challenges the idea that weight loss is a discipline problem. If you've ever felt stuck in the cycle of starting over, all-or-nothing thinking, or struggling to stay consistent despite your best intentions, this is for you. We explore the real reasons people struggle with weight loss—not lack of willpower, but the patterns, beliefs, and systems that keep them stuck. Simple, honest conversations about food, habits, mindset, and what it actually takes to create lasting change without perfection. No extremes. No guilt. Just a more sustainable way forward.
