Joey, welcome to the podcast. Today, we're talking about something that I think is very timely. You know, at the beginning of summer, people are always setting out these goals. I want to get into summer body shape.

Joey Muñoz (0:12)

Sure.

And the thing is, as summer progresses, a lot of times people think, oh, maybe I don't want that anymore. It's not worth it. I've already been at the beach. I've already done and I've already been there, done that. But actually, there's a lot of reasons beyond vanity that it's important to be in the best shape of our life. Longevity, overall health, and also just because you might want to. We're going to get into those topics and reasons why. But today's episode is all about how you can sustainably lose up to 20 pounds in 90 days.

And before we get started here, because you have a step-by-step process that you've worked with thousands of people, you and your team, taking them through, that has proven to work, before we get into it, two important things that I want to talk about. Number one, if somebody listens to this full episode, what are they going to learn by the end of it? And what will they be able to potentially do in their life? Let's start there.

What can the audience get? So first and foremost, definitely a step-by-step process that you can implement starting today after watching this video to start the path to losing 20 pounds of body fat in the next 90 days or so.

I want to also add a caveat there because I don't like when people hyperfixate on a particular number, right? So whether it's 15, 20, 25 for some people, like as long as you make progress, I think that's a big win. I know we'll talk about the mindset perspective as well, but having a clear strategy that you can implement to achieve your weight loss goals and start on the right path for the next 90 days. That'll be the first thing that people will get from the episode. I think beyond that, also having a clear understanding of why you might be struggling if you have been struggling with weight loss and fitness for a period of time. I think oftentimes it comes down to the specific methods that people use. There's a lot of confusion around what matters and what doesn't matter on social media regarding fitness specifically.

And a lot of people feel overwhelmed. One of the things that I would like to help the audience accomplish is just feel a little bit more clear around the variables and things that actually matter for sustainable progress. And then third and I would say, not most importantly, but very importantly, is just a sense of confidence that achieving particular health and fitness goals doesn't have to be as difficult or confusing as it may feel. And I want the audience to feel confident that they can actually implement this into their actual day-to-day life.

Another thing I want to get into before we get into this step-by-step plan that you have here, and there's five steps that you've outlined that we're gonna break down and we're gonna get into all the specifics around them. We're gonna get into talking about the importance of calories, which is always a big subject for a lot of people. We're gonna talk about how to step into a caloric deficit. You're gonna get into the training strategies that are important that are part of this process because it's not all diet and actually some of the movement stuff makes this process easier. We're gonna get into nutrition, which is everybody's favorite topic, what matters and what doesn't. And then you're gonna get into how to create a system where you get feedback so you can autocorrect if things start to veer off track and actually measure progress and see that you're heading in the right direction.

And then lastly, we're gonna talk about, okay, now what? Now what happens after the 90 days and some things that could help you in the process. So before we get into that step by step system, I want you to talk a little bit about two things. I want you to talk about the why. I talked at the beginning of this podcast that there's a lot of reasons beyond vanity. I don't think vanity is a bad thing, right? Give the people what they want and also give them what they need. That's the goal of today's podcast episode. What are other reasons that you talk about with your clients when it comes to helping them understand their why and why their why is important when it comes to their weight loss journey?
