Training to Feel Good: Movement, Calisthenics & Longevity with Coach Georges Fayad

Jul 6

In this episode of The Weigh In by Journable, Steve Hoyek sits down with Coach Georges Fayad, personal trainer, class coach, and co-founder of Move Lebanon, to talk about what good training actually looks like.

They discuss why fitness is not just about the one hour you spend in the gym, how to build consistency without burning out, and why movement should help you feel better, move better, and live better.

Georges breaks down the difference between strength training, hypertrophy, calisthenics, and general fitness, while sharing how he coaches beginners, kids, adults, and older clients with very different goals. The conversation also covers recovery, daily steps, sleep, whole foods, protein, training to failure, and the problem with noisy fitness advice online.

Whether you are just getting started or trying to rethink your approach to training, this episode is a reminder to find movement you enjoy, build slowly, and train for a body that works well — not just one that looks good.
