Strength Solutions Podcast | S4 Ep. 38 - "The Hard Start, The Wrong Fix, and The 300g Lie" 🎙️ Hosts: Nathaniel Espinoza (@strengthsolutionsnathaniel) & Edwin Santiago (@strengthsoltuionsedwin) 📅 Release Date: 10/21/25 --- 🚀 Episode Highlights: Why the Beginning Is So Hard (And How a Good Trainer Speeds It Up) The hardest part of fitness isn't the weights — it's the first few weeks. We talk about why starting feels so difficult, what your body is really going through, and how the right trainer can fast-track your progress without burning you out. Persistence vs. Progress: Stop Circling the Same Pothole "Never quit" sounds great — until persistence turns into stubborn repetition. If you keep doing the same thing and getting injured or stuck, you're not progressing, you're just surviving. Here's how to break the cycle and move forward for real. Big Pharma vs. Natural Medicine (and Costco Joins the Fight) With Costco now selling Ozempic for $499, the conversation around "natural" health vs. medical intervention is heating up. We unpack the pros, cons, and the truth about why both sides need to stop pretending they have the only answer. You're Going to Die With 300g of Carbs Carbs aren't your enemy — misunderstanding them is. We discuss why the "carbs kill" mentality is outdated, and how your body actually thrives on balance, not fear. --- 🔬 Research Articles: "Brain Fat, Not Just Plaques, May Be the Hidden Driver of Alzheimer's" – Purdue University, Sept 24, 2025 "What Happens to Your Body When You Eat Too Many Ultra-Processed Foods" – Florida Atlantic University, Sept 27, 2025 --- 🗣️ Audience Engagement:    - Submit questions for future episodes through Instagram or email!    - Email: [email protected] --- 🏋️ Stay Empowered:    - Instagram: @strengthsolutionspodcast    - YouTube: @strengthsolutionspodcast    - TikTok: @strengthsolutionspodcast    - Check out our programs at https://www.strengthsolutionspodcast.com/ --- 🎧 How to Listen:   - Listen on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.   - Don't forget to subscribe, rate, and leave a review! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Thanks for tuning in!
