When most people over 50 want to lose weight, they instinctively turn to cardio. Run more, eat less - it seems like the obvious solution, right? Not so fast. In today’s Monday Mile episode, Coach Kevin and Coach Russell bust the biggest cardio myth that’s sabotaging your fat loss, wrecking your metabolism, and keeping you stuck in a cycle of frustration.

 

Discover:

  • Why cardio isn’t the fat-burning magic trick you think it is
  • The real reason cardio alone won’t get you lean, strong, and fit after 50
  • How to actually use cardio the right way (without crushing your metabolism)
  • The #1 mistake almost everyone over 50 makes with cardio—and what to do instead

 

Whether you love cardio or dread it, this quick-hit episode will reshape the way you think about it and give you clear, actionable tips you can start using today.
