Don Fortner is one tough cookie. At 71 years old, this high school teacher from Indiana was struggling with his health - packing on the pounds and dealing with pesky sciatica issues. But Don wasn't about to let Father Time get the best of him.
When he stumbled upon Turo's fitness podcast, something clicked. Don knew he needed accountability and support to get his health back on track. So he applied for Turo's one-on-one coaching program... and won the jackpot.
In this candid conversation, Don shares how he overcame the "all or nothing" mindset that had derailed his fitness efforts in the past. With Turo's guidance, he learned to embrace small, sustainable changes - swapping out mindless snacking for high-protein alternatives and making walking a daily priority, even on his busiest days.
The results speak for themselves. Don has shed 13 pounds and counting, and he's feeling stronger and more energized than he has in years. But the real victory? The mindset shift that's helping this busy educator put his own health first, no matter how hectic life gets.
If you're tired of starting and stopping your fitness journey, take a page from Don's playbook. This is one podcast that'll have you lacing up your sneakers and going the distance.

In this episode, I share my top 5 strategies for effective rest and recovery between workouts. As someone who used to believe that more is better when it comes to exercise, I've learned the hard way that proper rest and recovery are crucial for progress and avoiding overtraining.
The 5 key strategies I cover include:
Staying active on rest days through low-intensity activities like walking, rather than complete rest.
Doing bodyweight exercises focused on proper form and range of motion, to maintain muscle-building signals.
Prioritizing mobility work to improve flexibility and joint health.
Emphasizing the importance of quality sleep for recovery and overall wellbeing.
Dedicating time to plan and prepare nutritious meals, rather than relying on quick, less healthy options.
I share my personal experiences and insights to highlight how these strategies can make a significant difference in fitness progress and overall health.
