When self doubt starts creeping in and you begin questioning your consistency, your discipline, or your ability to follow through, I want you to pause and calmly remind yourself of the truth.You are consistent.Not because you have done everything perfectly, but because you have continued showing up for yourself over and over again throughout your life. Even during the moments where you wanted to quit. Even during the moments where things felt overwhelming. You are still here. You are still trying. You are still figuring things out.In this episode, I talk about:Why consistency is often overlooked in ourselvesThe importance of speaking to yourself with calm confidenceRemembering the track record you already haveWhy everyone has moments where they want to give upHow consistency, confidence, and resilience already exist within youLearning to view yourself through a more honest and supportive lensA lot of this journey is not about becoming somebody completely different. It is about recognizing what has already been there all along.If you want more reminders and conversations like this, check out all of the podcasts:https://yourlevelfitness.com/podcastsIf you want help untangling your thoughts and feelings through guided reflection, sign up for the weekday journal prompts:https://yourlevelfitness.com/emailAnd if you want to join the interactive live streams and become part of the conversation:https://yourlevelfitness.com/communityIf you need a physical reminder of how consistent you are, check out the Consistency collection:https://yourlevelfitness.shop/collections/consistencyThank you as always for listening, and I’ll talk to you again real soon.

If you constantly feel like you are not consistent enough, this episode is an important reminder that consistency may not look the way you think it does.In today’s world, we hear over and over again that we just need to “be more consistent,” but very few people actually stop to define what consistency means in real life. Some things are done daily. Some weekly. Some monthly. Some only once a year. That does not make them inconsistent. It makes them part of a realistic life rhythm.In this episode, I talk about:Why consistency looks different in different areas of lifeLetting go of the belief that you must do everything every single dayHow long term consistency is built over timeTrusting yourself to return to your habits after difficult seasonsWhy catastrophic life events do not erase your progressBuilding consistency through self-trust instead of pressureOne of the biggest mindset shifts you can make is realizing that consistency is not perfection. It is continuing to come back to the things that matter over and over again throughout your life.If you want help untangling your thoughts and feelings around consistency, sign up for the weekday journal prompts:https://yourlevelfitness.com/emailIf you want more podcasts and conversations around mindset, fitness, and building a forever active lifestyle:https://yourlevelfitness.com/podcastsAnd if you want to take part in the interactive live streams and become part of the conversation:https://yourlevelfitness.com/communityYou can also always reach out directly:[email protected]

Life feels heavy sometimes.And when it does, a lot of the typical fitness and motivational advice completely falls apart. The speeches about discipline, hustle, and “just staying consistent” sound good in theory, but real life does not always work that way.In this episode of The Consistency Podcast, I talk about what consistency actually looks like during difficult seasons of life. When you are overwhelmed. Burnt out. Grieving. Emotionally exhausted. Physically struggling. Taking care of everyone else. Or simply trying to make it through the day with whatever bandwidth you have left.This conversation is a reminder that you are probably doing much better than you think you are.We talk about why consistency is still showing up in your life even if it no longer looks perfect, daily, or highly structured. We also talk about trusting yourself to navigate difficult moments instead of judging yourself for not operating at full capacity all the time.This episode is for anyone who feels like they have fallen behind, lost momentum, or can’t “get it together” right now. Sometimes the most important thing you can do is acknowledge that life is heavy and lead with compassion toward yourself while you work through it.You are still following through more than you realize.New to the inside/out approach?https://yourlevelfitness.com

If you are struggling to stay consistent on your weight loss journey, there is a good chance you have been told that what you need is more motivation, more discipline, or more accountability.But what if that is not actually the problem?In this episode of The Consistency Podcast, I break down why consistency is not some magical personality trait that only certain people have. It is a skill that you can develop. And the reason so many people feel stuck in all-or-nothing cycles is because they are trying to force themselves into routines, habits, and approaches that do not actually fit their real life.We talk about why motivation naturally comes and goes, why discipline is often over-glamorized in the fitness industry, and why sustainable consistency starts with your preferences, your current capabilities, and your willingness to trust yourself.I also explain why you are probably already more consistent than you think you are, and how learning to identify the small moments where you are following through can completely change the way you approach fitness, weight loss, and long-term lifestyle change.This episode is for anyone who feels like they are constantly starting over, struggling to maintain momentum, or wondering why consistency feels so difficult. You do not need to become a different person. You need to learn how to build from where you already are.New to the inside/out approach?https://yourlevelfitness.com

How confident are you in your ability to follow through?Not just in theory, but in real life… when it actually matters.In this episode, I challenge you to look at your relationship with yourself and the promises you make every day. Because consistency is not just about showing up, it’s about trusting yourself to do what you said you were going to do.We talk about why most people don’t trust themselves, how unrealistic expectations break that trust, and what you can do immediately to start rebuilding it. This is not about being perfect. Nobody follows through one hundred percent of the time. But when you learn how to define your promises clearly and follow through to the best of your ability, everything starts to shift.You begin to feel more confident. You make better decisions. You stop overcommitting. And you start aligning your actions with who you actually want to be.This is how you build real consistency, not through pressure, but through self-trust.🔑 What You’ll Take AwayWhy self-trust is the foundation of consistencyHow unclear expectations lead to broken promisesWhy nobody follows through one hundred percent of the timeHow to start rebuilding trust with yourself immediatelyThe connection between confidence, consistency, and identity🔗 Your Level Fitness Links:New to YLF?

What actually creates long-term results?In this episode, I’m sharing a conversation originally recorded for the Life During and After GLP-1 Podcast because so much of this discussion connects directly to consistency, sustainability, and building long-term health instead of chasing short-term perfection.Brian and I talk about obesity, GLP-1 medications, body image, health scares, and the mindset shift from constantly trying temporary diets to building habits and routines that support long-term quality of life.This conversation explores:• Why consistency matters more than perfection• The difference between temporary diets and sustainable habits• GLP-1 medications and long-term health management• Health improvements beyond just the scale• Body image and self-esteem after weight loss• Building strength and longevity after reaching a goal weight• Why maintenance is about lifestyle, not restriction• Staying focused on long-term quality of lifeOne of the biggest takeaways from this episode is that consistency is not about doing everything perfectly. It is about continuing to move forward, continuing to adapt, and continuing to build habits that support your future health and well-being.This is a grounded conversation about sustainable progress, mindset, longevity, and learning how to create a healthier life that you can actually maintain.Connect with Brian:TikTok:https://www.tiktok.com/@brianrantsaboutstuffLinktree:https://linktr.ee/brianrantsaboutstuffNew to Your Level Fitness?https://yourlevelfitness.com

If you’ve ever told yourself “I just need to be more consistent,” this episode is for you.Because the truth is, you’re already consistent… you’re just not giving yourself credit for it.In this episode, I break down what consistency actually looks like in real life, not the all or nothing version that most people chase. We talk about redefining consistency based on your preferences, recognizing the patterns you already follow every day, and removing the guilt that comes from unrealistic expectations around eating and exercise.I also walk you through how to look at your week in a practical way, so you can see the real data behind your habits instead of relying on emotion or frustration. When you start to define consistency on your terms, everything changes. You stop starting over, you stop beating yourself up, and you start building something that actually lasts.This is the shift from trying to be consistent… to realizing that you already are.If you’re working toward a weight loss goal, building a sustainable eating plan, or just trying to feel better about your day to day actions, this episode will help you see things differently.Why you’re already more consistent than you thinkHow to define consistency based on your lifestyle and preferencesWhy perfection is not required for progressHow to evaluate your eating habits without guiltThe mindset shift that helps you build a forever active lifestyleNew to YLF?

Most people think consistency means doing more, pushing harder, and staying locked into a rigid routine.But that approach is exactly why so many people struggle to follow through.In this episode, I break down what consistency actually looks like from an inside/out perspective. It starts with getting honest about where you are right now, not where you wish you were, not where you think you should be.From there, it becomes about taking steps, assessing progress, adjusting direction, and most importantly, learning how to trust yourself through the process.We talk about why more information isn’t the solution, how perfectionism quietly disrupts consistency, and why your process has to be your own if you want it to last.This is the shift from chasing consistency to actually building it.YLF Links:New To Your Level FitnessStart here: https://yourlevelfitness.comBuild Consistency Through Daily ReflectionGet the journal prompts: https://yourlevelfitness.com/emailWear The Identity You’re BuildingShop the Consistency Collection: https://yourlevelfitness.shop/collections/consistency

In this episode, I’m breaking down why weekends are the key to long-term consistency, and it’s probably not for the reason you think.Most people assume they fall off on the weekends because they lack discipline, but in reality, it’s often because they’ve been too rigid and restrictive during the week. When your routine only works under perfect structure, it’s not built for real life, and the weekend exposes that.I talk about how to shift away from the all-or-nothing mindset, why “bearing down” and trying to push harder is not the answer, and what it actually looks like to build something you can follow seven days a week. This includes learning how to take your foot off the gas while still moving forward, instead of completely disconnecting and restarting every Monday.We also get into the importance of evaluating your approach instead of blaming yourself, how to adjust your structure so it works with your life, and why consistency is less about perfection and more about staying connected over time.If you’ve ever felt like you’re doing everything right during the week but losing it on the weekend, this episode will help you understand why and give you a better way forward.Your Level Fitness LinksNew to YLF?https://yourlevelfitness.comThese Journal Prompts Will Help You Stay Consistent: https://yourlevelfitness.com/emailShow Everyone How Consistent You Are: https://yourlevelfitness.shop/collections/consistency

In this episode, I break down one of the biggest misconceptions around consistency, the idea that doing more is always better.If you’ve ever felt stuck in a cycle of starting, stopping, and restarting, this conversation is going to help you reframe everything. Because consistency is not about pushing harder. It’s about building something you can actually sustain.I talk about what it really means to operate from a calm headspace, how to move at a deliberate pace, and why most people burn out chasing more instead of building better systems.This applies to fitness, work, relationships, and your personal life. If you feel overextended, overwhelmed, or like you’re constantly trying to keep up, this episode will help you slow things down in the right way so you can finally build momentum that lasts.Key Takeaways• Why more effort does not equal better results• How to build sustainable systems instead of chasing intensity• What a calm headspace actually looks like in real life• How to stop being the bottleneck in your own growth• Why slowing down is the key to long-term consistencyYour Level Fitness Links:Start your journey herehttps://yourlevelfitness.comBuild consistency with your routine and mindset during the weekhttps://yourlevelfitness.com/emailExplore the Consistency Collection and start identifying with the processhttps://yourlevelfitness.shop/collections/consistency

If you feel like you’re constantly starting over on your weight loss or fitness journey, this episode is for you.Here’s the truth, it’s not a discipline problem.All or nothing thinking keeps you stuck in a cycle of going all in, falling off, and restarting. And the more you repeat that cycle, the more it reinforces the belief that you’re inconsistent.In this episode, I break down why this pattern happens, how your preferences play a major role in long-term success, and why consistency has nothing to do with being perfect seven days a week.We talk about building a foundation that actually fits your life, how to find your “something” in the middle, and why shifting your identity toward consistency changes everything.You already have the experience. You already know more than you think.
