Escaping the "metrics trap" in fitness
Description
Kevin breaks down how our core values in fitness can be shaped by external metrics, from calorie counts to college rankings. He explores how devices and media oversimplify what we truly value, replacing joy and personal goals with data-driven targets. Plus, Kevin answers a listener's question on recovery, explaining the role of biomarkers in understanding when it’s safe to dive back into training.
