Stop Scrolling Fitspo: Why Comparing Your Progress to Others Is Sabotaging You

from More Movement Please

Scrolling fitspo and feeling behind? You have no idea what's really happening behind those posts. Here's why comparison is wrecking your progress and what to do instead. In this episode, Ashley breaks down "compare-schlager" (comparing yourself to everyone except who you were yesterday) and why doomscrolling through other people's fitness content can quietly derail your mental progress. She gets honest about her own struggles watching people who started later than her lose more weight or get stronger faster, and why genetics, stress levels, and unseen habits make those comparisons pointless. If you've ever closed an app feeling like you're not doing enough, this one's for you.This podcast is for entertainment purposes only and is not medical advice.
