The fitness mindset I wish I'd known 10 years ago | Borge Fagerli The Energy Blueprint Podcast

    • Alternative Health

In this episode, I’m happy to welcome Borge back for another conversation about fitness. But this time, he’s focusing on the importance of mindset. 
However, this isn’t the same mindset information you’ve heard in other places. Borge has decades of experience as a fitness expert, and he’s now approaching health through an incredibly authentic, honest, and highly effective lens that I think will help you achieve your goals, too.
In this podcast, Borge and I discuss:
Why he switched his focus from purely muscle building to mindset, and the fascinating concept of the Dunning-Kruger effect that fueled this shift
Why a big-picture view of health, fitness, and even life might be the best context for understanding new information (and living happily!) versus getting lost in the details
Our own personal journeys in the fitness industry and why comparison truly is the thief of joy
The role of social media in how we perceive ourselves and the illusion of optimal that it promotes; unfortunately, the algorithm rarely rewards authenticity 
The signs that let you know someone is lying to you on social media
One major step Borge took to bring more honesty and authenticity into his already powerful message
Understanding when you should self-experiment and when you should follow a protocol…there’s a time and place for both!
Is biohacking really as valuable as everyone says it is? Or is there a more simplistic approach to health that’s just as effective? 
The importance of enjoyment as part of our health routines…don’t forget to achieve your goals AND have fun!
