Author: Pete Jacobs February 26, 2021 Duration: 46:12
Today is about the many mechanisms that may be contributing to problems for those trying to lose weight, or gain energy.

There are many different layers, and levers, that I mention, and most of them interact with one another.

Try to listen out for what may be the best cause of action for you to start with.  Come with an open mind, and send through any questions you have.

Also listen out for next weeks podcast as it dives further into weight loss, metabolism, and fasting.

You are listening to The Live Your Own Fit Podcast - where your LYF Performance questions will be answered, health topics dissected, and energy boosting tips discovered, with me your host today, Pete Jacobs. I’m an Ironman World Champion and Health Coach and love chatting about how the body and mind works.

If anything you heard piqued your interest into your own health symptoms, or perhaps you want to know how you can put this information into practical terms for performance in sport or everyday life, we’d love to help you live with more energy and health longevity so you can reach your goals.

Head on over to liveyourownfit.com to book in a free discovery call, or email us at hello@liveyourownfit.com, or message us through any of our social networks and we will get right back to you.

You can be coached to increase your energy and health one on one by Jaimielle, or Pete, and, enjoy your very own ‘LYF performance’ virtual community. 

We’ll see you there.

 

Finding a sustainable path to better health often feels like navigating a maze of conflicting advice. Live Your Own Fit | LYF Performance cuts through that noise with grounded conversations led by Pete Jacobs, a World Ironman Triathlon Champion, and his wife Jaimielle. This isn't just about extreme athleticism; it's about the practical, balanced choices that build a resilient life. You'll hear discussions that connect the dots between nutrition, daily movement, and the mental frameworks needed to stick with it. Pete naturally draws from his own journey to the pinnacle of endurance sports, not to prescribe a champion's regimen, but to share the broader lessons on mindset and perseverance that apply to anyone. The podcast operates on the principle that true fitness is deeply personal-it's the energy to keep up with your kids, the clarity to focus at work, and the vitality to enjoy your days. Each episode offers a blend of personal anecdotes, actionable lifestyle tips, and thoughtful dialogue aimed at helping you define what performance means in your own life. Tune in for a refreshingly honest take on building health from the ground up, where the goal is lasting well-being, not just a temporary fix.
