Drop the Athlete Ego

You don’t change your physique by waiting until you feel motivated, you change it by becoming someone who keeps the promises she makes to herselfIn this episode, we’re talking about self-trust, why constantly negotiating with yourself keeps you stuck, and what happens when you start proving to yourself that your word actually means somethingBecause one workout won’t change your bodyOne walk won’t change your bodyOne day of hitting your nutrition won’t change your bodyBut hundreds of promises kept to yourself will

We throw around the word “balance” so much in fitness that we’ve started making any level of sacrifice feel unhealthyIn this episode, I’m breaking down why I don’t believe in 80/20, why different seasons of your goals require different standards, and how to actually enjoy your life without turning one meal, one night out, or one missed workout into a fuck-it weekend.You need to get better at pivoting without lowering the standard.Follow me on Instagram: @julialedfordfit

Happy Friday!!! I catch you up on life and why it's been a busy last few weeks. I think deep dive into athlete ego. If you are a former athlete who feels they can't hire a personal trainer because they know it all or they will figure it out.. then this podcast is for you. I talk about my experience and what lead me to hiring a personal trainer and the benefits of it. I talk bout my mindset of finally caving into having a personal trainer.. trust me.. it wasn't an easy road. So drop the EGO, come learn and think about where your life could be with a little more accountability, community and mindset shift. Let's do the damn thing together!
