Every year starts the same way: new goals, new motivation, and a fresh commitment to “getting back in shape.”
And every year, most people hit the same wall—burnout, frustration, or injury—by February or March.
In this episode of The Talking Rehab Podcast, Dr. Fred Bagares explains why the problem isn’t motivation or discipline. It’s the way we think about movement.
Quick wins, extreme workouts, and all-or-nothing plans feel productive—but they’re rarely sustainable. They depend on perfect timing, perfect energy, and pain-free joints. When real life shows up, the system collapses.
This episode introduces a more durable approach: building a daily movement identity, not just chasing workouts.
You’ll learn:
Instead of asking, “Did I work out?”
You’ll start asking, “Which movement buckets did I fill today?”
This mindset shift removes the false choice between everything and nothing, protects joint health, and keeps movement alive through stress, pain, travel, and aging.
If you want results that last past January—and a body that keeps working with you instead of against you—this episode will change how you approach movement in 2026 and beyond.
