In this week’s podcast episode, Dez and I kick off the new year by reflecting on our rough ride through 2024 and how we’re setting realistic, sustainable goals for 2025. We dive into why this year is less about “going hard” and more about slowing down, managing stress, and building back up without burning out.
We cover:
👉 How we’re structuring our fitness and life goals this year
👉 The importance of focusing on mental health before performance
👉 How burnout shaped our new approach to training and recovery
👉 Small, practical tips to stay accountable and avoid the “all-or-nothing” trap
👉 Why perfectionism can hold you back and how we’re embracing “good enough”
Whether you’re struggling to set goals or just want to approach fitness and life differently this year, this episode if for you.
