The fitness industry is full of noise—and most of it is hurting people who genuinely want to get healthier.

In this honest and unfiltered solo episode, Coach Cory Fernandes breaks down the three biggest problems he sees in the fitness industry today—especially on social media—and explains why they confuse, mislead, and frustrate busy parents and professionals trying to transform their health.

This isn’t a rant. It’s a reality check designed to help you filter bad information, avoid false promises, and focus on what actually works when it comes to fat loss, strength, and long-term lifestyle change.

💡 In This Episode, You’ll Learn:
• Why “this ONE thing changed everything” is a misleading sales tactic
• How polarizing and negative fitness content creates confusion
• Why lack of transparency (filters, surgery, PEDs) hurts everyday people
• The difference between workouts, programs, and true lifestyle change
• Why exercise is only 5–10% of fat-loss success
• How to spot coaches and information you can actually trust

If you’ve ever felt overwhelmed, discouraged, or skeptical about fitness advice online—this episode will help you see through the noise and refocus on simple, sustainable fundamentals.
