Free n’ Fit
Welcome to the Free n’ Fit podcast! I’m Martina Raskova, and I’m here to raise awareness about unhealthy relationships with food, eating disorders, and why diets don’t work. Having personally struggled with an eating disorder for 12 years, I’m very passionate about helping people understand that nutrition doesn’t need to be complicated. You absolutely do not have to follow a restricted diet or eat plain meals to achieve your dream body. If you are ready, let’s dive into it! Join me as we talk about breaking free from the yo-yo diet cycle and discovering how to enjoy your favorite foods while getting into the best shape of your life. I’ll also talk about how I transformed from someone struggling with self-esteem and body image issues to a coach who, together with my team, has guided over 500 people in changing how they view food, health, fitness, and nutrition. Moreover, I’ll share some things I’ve kept to myself for a while out of fear of judgment. I want to be completely honest because i know that so many people battle with unhealthy food relationships but feel scared to talk about it, just like I did for the longest time.

In this episode, I chat with my client Katie, who spent years trapped in diet culture — Beachbody, Weight Watchers, and 1,200-calorie days that left her exhausted and frustrated. Seven months later, she’s eating over 1,000 calories more, feels amazing, and is finally ready to start fat loss from a place of strength and food freedom. Her story is proof that starving yourself isn’t the answer.

Creatine isn’t just for bodybuilders — and it definitely won’t make you bulky. In this episode, I break down what creatine actually is, why women benefit from it even more than men, and how to use it safely without stressing about water weight or loading phases. From stronger workouts to better brain health, mood, and gut support, creatine is one of the simplest and most effective supplements women can add to their routine.

Confused about what to eat around your workouts? In this episode, I break down pre- and post-workout nutrition in a simple, no-stress way. You’ll learn how to fuel before training, what your body actually needs afterward, and why focusing on real, nutrient-dense food matters more than supplements.

Most women are under-eating protein — and it’s showing up as cravings, fatigue, and muscle loss. In this episode, I break down how much you actually need, why the RDA isn’t enough, and how to hit your targets without overthinking it. If you’re stuck at 50g a day, this one’s for you.

In this episode, I’m calling out a big myth: you’re not addicted to food — you’re craving a life that actually feels good.
We’ll talk about why late-night snacking and overeating usually have nothing to do with willpower and everything to do with burnout, boredom, and missing joy. I’ll share my own experience of leaning on food as the “best part of my day” and what finally shifted when I stopped trying to just “fix the food” and started fixing my life.
If food feels like your only reward, your only break, or the only thing you look forward to — this episode is for you.

If you’re doing all the “right” things but the scale, mirror, or jeans aren’t giving you proof yet—this is the pep talk you need. We’ll talk about why the messy middle is where the real change happens, how to spot progress beyond the scale, and why quitting now is the only way to guarantee you never see results.

Why the scale goes up during a reverse diet and why it’s actually a sign your metabolism is healing—not that you’re gaining fat.
