Author: Jenn Trepeck July 2, 2025 Duration: 41:34
When it comes to your fitness routine, what are you training for? If you’re like most of us, not a marathon or a bodybuilding competition. And yet, most trainers and fitness influencers advise us to train like we are! What if instead, we train for life?! Those fitness habits look pretty different…and they’re A LOT easier to maintain. In this episode of Salad with a Side of Fries, host Jenn Trepeck welcomes Emily Nichols, a personal trainer and host of Habit Hack Your Health, to explore the art of forming lasting fitness habits. Emily shares her expertise on creating keystone habits, mastering functional movement, and embracing a habit loop of cue, routine, and reward to foster lasting lifestyle changes. From rejecting diet culture to prioritizing enjoyable workouts, this conversation offers practical strategies to move your body, fuel your soul, and be your best self. The Salad With a Side of Fries podcast is hosted by Jenn Trepeck, who discusses wellness and weight loss in real life, clearing up myths, misinformation, and bad science surrounding our nutrition knowledge and the food industry. Let’s dive into wellness and weight loss for real life, including drinking, eating out, and skipping the grocery store.
