"Liron, I enjoy the classes but I feel that I still can't do so many of the exercises... Is it ever going to change? My wonderful student asked me after 2.5 months of training. 
I was so glad she did, as this is a common frustration after 3 months of training, which has inspired me to record this episode.

What can help us feel good about ourselves and our body as we train no matter what happens?
How can we stay motivated in 2024 and not feel discouraged?
No, it’s not getting a better teacher, a better program or penciling the sessions in our diary.
In the new episode in our podcast, I’m suggesting a different approach, one that is practical, simple and is research based. A very powerful tool that you might have not considered before.
In our modern lifestyle, it is very hard to stay committed to our training routine.
