    #112 - Why You Struggle to Make Healthy Changes (And How to Finally Start)

    You know what you need to do to improve your health. So why aren't you doing it? Whether you're trying to lose weight, manage chronic pain, exercise consistently, or build healthier habits, knowing what to do and actually doing it are two very different things. In this episode of the Build Beyond Podcast, Dr. Chris Netley shares a conversation with a patient who knows exactly what he needs to do to improve his health but continues to struggle with taking action. It's a familiar story. You try different approaches, struggle to stay consistent, and eventually become overwhelmed, frustrated, and defeated. After enough unsuccessful attempts, you may start believing that nothing will work. But lasting change doesn't have to start with a complete lifestyle overhaul. In this episode, we explore: ✅ Why having too many options can leave you feeling overwhelmed and hopeless ✅ Why knowing your "why" doesn't always translate into action ✅ How repeated setbacks can undermine your confidence ✅ The difference between knowing what to do and actually following through ✅ Why small, manageable changes are often more effective than going all in ✅ How to build confidence, consistency, and momentum through small wins ✅ When investing in coaching and accountability can help you make progress The biggest takeaway? You don't need to change everything overnight. Start with one small action you're almost certain you can accomplish. Repeat it consistently, build confidence, and gradually take bigger steps. Whether your goal is weight loss, pain management, improved fitness, or simply living a healthier life, the same principles apply. 💪 Stop waiting for the perfect plan. Start with what you can do today. 🎙️ Follow the Build Beyond Podcast for practical, evidence-informed conversations about strength, rehabilitation, pain management, and building a healthier, more capable life.

    #108 - Rethinking Chiropractic Care: Insights from the Build Beyond Podcast

    What if chiropractic adjustments aren’t as important as you’ve been led to believe? In this episode, Chris gets candid about chiropractic care, the profession he chose, and why his own beliefs about adjustments have changed dramatically over the years. After growing up receiving chiropractic care and eventually becoming a chiropractor himself, Chris began questioning many of the claims surrounding routine adjustments. Are they necessary when you’re not in pain? Do they actually prevent future problems? And if you feel fine before an adjustment, how do you know it worked? Chris shares a recent patient conversation that brought these questions to the surface and explains why he believes adjustments can be useful—but should be viewed as a tool rather than the foundation of care. He also breaks down why his approach now focuses primarily on exercise, physical activity, strength, mobility, confidence, and helping people get back to the things they actually want to do. In this episode, you’ll hear: Why Chris changed his mind about chiropractic adjustmentsWhen hands-on care may actually be usefulWhy routine adjustments may not be necessary for everyoneThe importance of measuring whether treatment is actually helpingWhy exercise and physical activity play such a major role in long-term health and pain managementHow to make more informed decisions about your own careWhether you get adjusted every week, haven’t seen a chiropractor in years, or actively avoid chiropractic care, this episode will give you a different perspective on what chiropractic care can look like. Chapters 00:00 Introduction and episode overview 01:52 The value of chiropractic adjustments 03:48 Personal journey into chiropractic care 05:48 Patient case studies and treatment options 09:52 Questioning the evidence for chiropractic techniques 14:59 Guidelines from the American Chiropractic Association 20:00 The importance of active lifestyle for health 25:54 Conclusion and final thoughts Where to find Chris Netley: BuildBeyondHealth.com Instagram: @chrisnetleydc | @BuildBeyondHealth | @podcastbuildbeyond YouTube: @chrisnetleyDC X (formerly Twitter): @chrisnetleyDC  Facebook: Build Beyond Podcast Music licensed through Soundstripe.
