23 minutes

Summary
In this episode of The Chasing Health Podcast, Chase and Chris dive into a round of listener questions on everything from stress and stalled progress to how much variety you really need in your meals. Chris shares a personal story about a client whose energy and happiness skyrocketed once she got back to healthy habits. They talk about the “domino effect” of how good choices build momentum—and how bad ones can do the opposite. The guys also break down what to watch for when your body is overly stressed, why variety in your food matters, and when it’s okay to change up workouts based on gym equipment. It's a practical, down-to-earth conversation full of real advice you can use right away.
