Ep. 392 - Fitness Trends We Are Sick of Seeing in the Gym

SummaryIn this episode, Chase and Chris talk about the biggest fitness mistakes they still see everywhere and want gone for good before 2026. They explain why lifting too heavy with bad form or lifting too light out of fear is holding people back. They talk about why Instagram workouts, random group classes, and chasing soreness are not the answer. You will learn why progressive overload matters, why rest days are just as important as workouts, and why the basics always win. This episode is all about training smarter, not harder, and getting better results with the time you already spend in the gym.Chapters(00:00) Fitness Trends That Just Won’t Die(02:50) Ego Lifting, Form, and Range of Motion(07:10) Why Most People Are Lifting Too Light(11:20) Group Fitness Classes and Random Workouts(15:00) Muscle Confusion and Why It Is a Myth(17:30) Gym Etiquette and Phone Distractions(20:30) Instagram Workouts and Fitness Scams(22:10) Weighted Vests, Gadgets, and Wasted Money(24:20) Chasing Soreness and Overtraining(29:00) Stop Checking the Box.
