Social media is full of fitness and wellness trends, but are they actually worth trying?

In this episode, we break down some of the popular trends we’re seeing right now, where they might be beneficial, and what you should consider before jumping in.

Some trends can be useful. Others might not be the right fit for you. The key is understanding the why behind what you’re doing.

Tune in to hear our coaches break it down and help you decide what’s actually worth adding to your routine.

Sleep affects more than just how tired you feel. 😴

In this episode of the Rise Personal Training Podcast, we’re talking about how to wind down at night, improve your sleep quality, and build better habits around your bedtime routine.

Better sleep can mean better energy, better workouts, better recovery, and a better day overall.

Alcohol and fitness goals don’t always work well together.

In this episode, we talk about how alcohol can affect your training, recovery, progress, and why it may be holding you back more than you realize.

It’s not about never having a drink again. It’s about balance, knowing your goals, and making choices that still allow you to enjoy life while making progress.

Metabolism isn’t just about “burning calories.” It’s influenced by age, body composition, hormones, lifestyle, activity levels, and more.

In this episode, we break down how metabolism changes as we age, differences between men and women, how body types can play a role, and what you can actually do to support a healthier metabolism.

Technology keeps evolving, and so does the way we train at Rise. 📲💪

Better workout customization, improved progress tracking, new badges and achievements, member rewards, and even more ways to see how far you’ve come.
