I loved this podcast. Streak culture is really toxic to me. I had to delete Duolingo because of the constant pressure campaign. I really wanted to learn a language, but I just don't have zero days off in me.

Made it look eeeeasy!!

Fitness should be easy peasy when you’re starting out! (And for most of the time after!) I disagree that people should be going hard all the time. 20% of the time at most!

Every CrossFit trainer hates you now! Hahaha

V this was amazing. Thanks for making me feel good about my low stakes movement goals. You rock.

I was all ready to try Ladder after listening, but it doesn't seem to be on Android yet. Do you have any recommendations for something similar on Android?

the episode inspired me to buy a pull up bar and those push-up things you put on the floor.

I’m about 15 minutes in an all I can think about is I join the #gymoflife

Want to make exercise “easy”, make your city more accessible by public transport or cycling and your daily activities like going to work or running errands will keep you fit and healthy!

Very insightful! Getting into the habit is so challenging. I really liked that you said it takes years to develop a fitness routine that works, no one admits that. Also getting off IG has stopped my body dysmorphia.

It's taken me years to get where I am and it'll take me years to get where I want to go! I get annoyed by the idea it's all discipline and motivation — it's truly not. Life will happen, you'll have slumps and injuries, your interests will change. The only way I've found to keep going is to have fun!
