  • How to start moving for health, not just performance outcomes
  • Building habits and making it a practice
  • Connecting mood with activity and finding that sweet spot with activity level
  • Learning how to ebb and flow training with the seasons of life
  • Ditching that all or nothing thinking
  • Who is Strideful for, how does it work, and what do he hopes users will gain from it
