Ever feel like a failure after skipping a workout or devouring a burger instead of chicken? On this episode of The Simply Fitness Podcast, we dive into the psychology of fitness, helping you ditch guilt and reframe setbacks as wins. You’ll learn why missing a gym session or eating pizza isn’t the end—life happens! I share my own spiral (Chick-fil-A, anyone?) and five friendly tips: journal daily wins, embrace “better than zero,” have a Plan B (hello, rotisserie chicken!), never miss twice, and talk to yourself like a coach. Stop comparing to social media highlight reels and start building resilience. Ready to turn setbacks into progress? DM your reframing story to @maxucoaching!
