215 - Cardio Mistakes To Avoid

Cut The Crap With Beth And Matt
About this episode

We're back! This week we are continuing our conversation from last week's episode about strength training mistakes - we're talking cardio!


Before we get to that topic, we caught up with each others fitness and training progress, social media rants, and Beth addressed a message she received that was accusing her of taking a GLP-1, so Beth lets us know what she thinks about that!


Some of the cardio mistakes discussed:

  • Not doing enough cardio
  • Mixing cardio during strength training
  • Not pushing yourself - but also not pushing yourself too hard
  • Using cardio to burn/earn calories


And more - so be give this one a listen and send us a message with your questions and thoughts on this episode!
