                <content:encoded>&lt;p&gt;Hello and welcome back to Fit Bits, where today we&amp;#39;re discussing cheat meals and their application, or lack thereof... They&amp;#39;re certainly harmful, just not in the way you&amp;#39;re probably thinking. Both physiological and psychological considerations can show why both this language choice and concept as a whole is generally a bad idea.

                <description><![CDATA[<p>Welcome back to the education series! We&#39;re very happy to have you join us to cover the fundamentals of lifestyle, something which is very overlooked in the pursuit of gaining muscle and losing fat (very important for health too of course). For the fundamentals it seemed appropriate to focus on improving sleep and digestion, also drawing reference to stress management which we&#39;re doing our Fit Bit mini series on because really there&#39;s probably way too much to cover with lifestyle to fit it in a podcast but hopefully you can take some cool stuff away from this anyway! Please remember to like, comment, and subscribe/follow for more content if you enjoyed this.
