Fitness on Easy Mode: The Mindset Shift That Fixes Everything
How do you make fitness feel easier without watering it down?
Steven Davis and Tris Cason break down what “easy mode” actually means, why it’s relative to your current skill level, and how coaches should meet you where you’re at without letting you hide from accountability. They talk meal plans vs macros, consistency without tracking, red-light foods, and why “discipline” is usually just a routine you’ve practiced long enough.
Key topics
Why “fitness easy” is relative to your starting point
Tris’ story: intimidation, the S&C class, and the first momentum shift
Coaches meeting clients where they are (without enabling avoidance)
Meal plan vs macros vs portion-based tracking (and how to progress between them)
Consistency without tracking still requires accountability (just different metrics)
“Red light foods” and why knowing yourself matters
Making fat loss easier: environment, constraints, and support at home
Habit stacking and the 80% rule (add only what you can sustain)
Why “discipline” is usually identity + routine, not superhero willpower
Keeping training simple long enough to build real skill
