January 08, 2025 25. The Best Quotes Of 2024. Guest David Alledal On Looking Where The Energy Is Going, Handling Your Ego And Not Logging Sessions.
David Alledal joins us in the studio for our milestone 25th episode. We’ve been eager to revisit some of the quotes that inspired us in 2024, and who better to invite than the man that shared, "Look where the energy is going." with us. Once a dedicated cyclist, David has since shifted his focus to exercise driven by compassion and more time spent with his family rather than on his performance. In this conversation, we dive into his transformative journey—discussing why his trip to India was 51% the best decision he ever made and 49% the worst experience of his life. We explore what happens when you start truly listening to yourself and realize that change is needed at a fundamental level. David also shares why he no longer logs his training sessions and why he started to look at himself self as a battery and explains the importance of embracing wall quotes for personal growth.
