In this episode of Savagely Scaled, Joyce and Blake dig deep into one of the most important parts of any fitness journey: setting goals. Whether it’s your first day in CrossFit, hitting a long-term PR, or simply keeping your house clean, we break down what it really means to create goals that stick.
Why goals matter: Without them, you’re just wandering through life.
Dreams vs. goals vs. expectations: Understanding the difference and avoiding frustration.
ADHD hyper-fixation & burnout: How chasing goals too hard can backfire.
Breaking goals down: From big, overwhelming tasks into smaller, measurable steps.
Fitness examples:
From ring rows ➝ banded pull-ups ➝ strict pull-ups.
Building toward double unders and big lifting numbers.
The role of mobility in hitting milestones.
Adjusting for injuries: How setbacks like shoulder or back injuries force goal re-alignment.
Accountability: Training partners, coaches, and community support that keep goals alive.
Consistency over perfection: Why small daily wins add up more than flawless execution.
Goals should be measurable, attainable, realistic, and flexible.
Reassess often — goals shift with life, injuries, and priorities.
Consistency beats perfection: one bad day ≠ a bad week.
Training partners and accountability are the glue that keeps goals alive.
Special love to gym partners at Kingman CrossFit and other gyms.
Big thanks to Blayne from Ten27 CrossFit for the support and recognition 💜.
