Motivation is a lie. If you’re waiting to feel motivated before you train, eat well, or build better habits—you’ll be waiting forever. The people who succeed in fitness (and in life) aren’t the ones with endless motivation; they’re the ones with the best systems and habits.
We have made a new Quick Case Episode!
In this episode, I share how I trained for ultra-marathons using CrossFit Endurance, without relying on motivation. Then, we’ll break down 7 simple strategies to build habits that stick, so you can be consistent no matter what.
