Kara and Kylie are getting nostalgic in this episode by talking about fitness trends from the 2010s. Listen in as they discuss where they were during the 2010s, what the trends at the time got wrong, and what has changed.
Kara and Kylie were in college in the mid 2010s, and it was around that time that they both really began to start looking at fitness….but not quite in the right way yet. They admit that they were very susceptible to the trendy, “magic” ways to lose weight / be fit.
They cover the hype around IIFYM (“if it fits your macros”), microwaving quest bars, BCAAs and other supplementation, and many more.
What all these trends symbolize is society’s desire for the easy, quick answer to fat loss. However, as they always say, there is no quick fix. The truth is there isn’t JUST one thing that is going to help you shed the weight or get fit. It takes consistent effort, proper nutrition, and knowledge to get in shape and prevent yourself from damaging your body. Kara and Kylie want listeners to know that they have been where they’re at looking for the easy answers too and they share these stories to help you feel less alone, but to also help you avoid making the same mistakes.
