This episode is brought to you by Strong Coffee Company and LMNT. Navigating the world of health and fitness can be a daunting task, especially with the barrage of sensationalized social media content clouding our judgment. But here's the game-changer: it's all about going back to basics. Hydration, nutrition, and sleep – the triumvirate of good health. Join me and Adam Bornstein, author of "You Can't Screw This Up," as we discuss the importance of cultivating situational awareness and avoiding self-sabotage. You will hear Adam’s unfiltered insights on building sustainable habits instead of chasing the next big thing or quick fixes. We'll also delve into the world of Adam's writings and his journey as an author and consultant to legends like LeBron James and Arnold Schwarzenegger! Get ready to prioritize practicality, sustainability, and balance on your health and fitness journey. Adam and I also discuss how mindset can power us through life’s hurdles, how can we turn adversity into fuel for personal growth, and even share heartbreaking yet empowering stories of loss and resilience. Listen in and discover how a strong mindset can shape positive behaviors in health, nutrition, and fitness, helping individuals thrive in any circumstance. Follow Adam @bornfitness Follow Chase @chase_chewning ----- In this episode, you will learn... Why a strong mindset is essential for overcoming adversity and maintaining health, nutrition, and fitness habits. How our behaviors are often shaped by our mindset and self-perception, which are crucial for long-term health and success. Instead of focusing on extreme measures, prioritize practical and sustainable habits for a balanced lifestyle. Sleep, hydration, and nutrition are fundamental to maintaining good health, but often overlooked due to sensationalized social media content. Embracing failure can help us anticipate and navigate self-sabotage, leading to more successful health and fitness plans. The concept of inversion can help us build successful plans by starting from potential failures and working backwards. It's crucial to understand our individual preferences and lifestyles before choosing a health or fitness plan. Adherence to a plan is more important than the plan itself, emphasizing the importance of personalization in health and fitness. Building self-awareness and understanding where you might fail can help you identify plans that are more likely to work. Striving to be "so good they can't ignore you" is a powerful mindset that can lead to personal and professional success. ----- Episode resources: Learn more about Strong New York Watch and subscribe on YouTube Get your LMNT hot electrolyte drink mix at https://www.DrinkLMNT.com/everforward  Save 15% on organic lattes and coffee with code CHASE at https://www.StrongCoffeeCompany.com
