Hot Topic: Write a letter to yourself for better health and fitness

Worth It? Raw Dogging (LOL)

Main Course: Most people don’t fail in fitness because they lack information - they fail because of the intention-action gap, the psychological and environmental disconnect between what we plan to do and what we actually follow through on. In this episode, we unpack why knowing isn’t the problem: friction, environment, task overwhelm, identity, and the brain’s preference for immediate rewards all quietly derail even highly motivated people.

We break down how small changes - reducing friction, building simple systems, starting with guaranteed wins, adding accountability, and shifting identity from “I should” to “I’m someone who trains” - can finally close the gap. It’s not about willpower. It’s about designing a life where the right choice is also the easy one.
