Run Your Fat Off with Jason Karp Podcast #56

Today I’m talking with Dr. Jason Karp aka the Google of Running (or at least that’s the impromptu nickname I gave him during the interview)! Karp is a Running Coach with a PhD in exercise physiology and a master’s in kinesiology. He’s written several books on running including – Run Your Fat Off  – it’s basically a guide to weight loss through running. That’s what we’re talking about today!

But this is NOT all about quick tips on losing weight. This interview talks about the benefits of running, how to get started running, how to get the best workout and more. It’s interesting even if you don’t want to lose weight because we talk about a lot of weight loss myths.

I ask him questions about everything from how to start running ….  does high intensity exercise burn more calories …. how to speed up my metabolism and more! Check it out and let me know if you have any follow up questions. And if you are triggered by the sound of this podcast episode please skip it and we’ll hang out on Friday (I put out new podcasts on Tuesdays and Fridays).

Warm Up: My New Year’s Resolutions…

1. Get ready everyday. Dress and do my hair/make-up good enough to do a video / run into an ex / not be embarrassed etc.

2. Use a running log everyday for 90 days. Update the blog or social media.

3. Monthly mini-goal. Set according to what’s appropriate and important at the time.
