The "Think Factor": Why 90% of Fitness Is Mental (And What That Means for Your Kids)

from The First Seven Years

Fitness expert Brent Bishop introduces the Think Factor: the idea that the results in health and fitness are 90% mental. And for kids, understanding this framework could be the difference between raising a child who loves to move and one who never finds their rhythm.Brent breaks down the four stages every person cycles through: The Dreamer, Doer, Plateau, and Breakthrough, and explains why kids are naturally gifted dreamers, but need guidance to push through boredom and monotony before they land on the one activity that truly clicks for them.If your child has the foundation built in these early years, it becomes nearly impossible to take it away from them later. This episode shows you exactly how to build it.LIKE this video if it gave you a new perspectiveCOMMENT with the sport or activity your kid loves most SUBSCRIBE for more expert parenting and health insightsFollow Brent Bishop / Think Fitness: Website:https://iambishop.com/ https://www.thinkfitnessstudios.com/ Instagram: @iambishop / @ThinkfitnesstorontoFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/thinkfitnessstudios YouTube: @BishopThinksFitnessFollow Dr. Murray: Website: http://www.drmurrayclarke.com/Follow Bryce Wylde: Main Site: https://wyldeonhealth.co Instagram: /wyldeonhealth Facebook: /wyldeonhealth YouTube: /@wyldeabouthealthThank You To Our Show Sponsors: Trusted guidance for every stage of parenting – https://www.askdrsears.com/ Know your Omega-3 levels and take control of your health – https://omegaquant.com/DISCLAIMER: The information provided in The First Seven Years is for educational and informational purposes only and is not intended as a substitute for advice from your pediatrician or other healthcare professional.
