Today I'm chatting with Katie Dunlop, a Certified Personal Trainer (NCCPT), group fitness instructor, and entrepreneur based in Orange County, California. She is the creator of Love Sweat Fitness, a health and fitness community that inspires women around the world to find their happy, healthy body!
In this episode, Katie shares more about her own personal health and fitness journey, how she overcame hypothyroidism, and how she was able to lose 45 pounds of extra weight naturally. We discuss common fitness myths, how much cardio to do, how long your workouts actually need to be, and if you need to lift heavy weights to see results. She also discusses the different diets she's tried over the years, why she focuses on functional fitness, and what she considers a balanced approach to food and fitness now. Katie talks more about her Love Sweat Fitness Hot Body Sweat Guides, how she manages her hypothyroidism, and how to fit alcohol into a healthy diet.
