127 - TRUFIT 2020: Long Term Health and Fitness Part 5 (The Hero's Journey)

In this episode, we’ll cover the hero's journey.It is not only a powerful plot device in modern and ancient stories.It's a deeply representative part of the renewing process of psychology and biology on our life goals and experience. Losing weight, gaining muscle, improving physical health...what, really, is the point? And how can you stay motivated to continue doing what you know is good for you? Listen in as Coach Alex VanHouten sheds light on the matter!In Part 6 next week, we’ll talk through the practical PRO TIPS you need to know in starting the journey so that you don’t give up where many others (especially during the new year) do - in the first 8 weeks! The gyms are about to get very crowded all over the world…because of the new year! What’s sad is that most of the newcomers will stop coming by the end of February. Why is that?The health and fitness world is filled with 4-week FADS ; 8-week programs; and the short term research to back up these spurts of well-meaning exercise and nutrition change. But around here, we know that nothing worth changing about you is short-term. In fact, that’s not how biology works, anyway. Anything short-term is a waste of time in the big scheme of things.Let’s take a different view of exercise, nutrition and lifestyle change in 2020. Let’s create sustainable changes that will stick with you so that next year, 2021, you’re getting to grow further instead of spinning your wheels or backsliding!Make a $1-$5 Monthly Contributionpatreon.com/definingdadbodMake a $20+ Monthly [email protected] a One-Time Contributiondefiningdadbod.com/innercircleTRUFIT 2020 - ALL Episodesdefiningdadbod.com/TrufitDefining Dad Bod On Youtubehttps://www.youtube.com/channel/UCh9iqX0vbbqLbz3lCvV7k-Q?sub_confirmation=1Start Your Trial Weekdefiningdadbod.com/shop/trialweekBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/faithful-fitness-with-coach-alex-vanhouten--5150768/support.
