A question David asked bodybuilder and former fat kid Stephen Campolo leads to more questions. How do we know if and/or when we are ever “fit?” And what does fit even mean? We look at the BMI and all sorts of other measures including the BAI and the BVI.  And regardless of what the numbers say, it looks like something is happening with David’s numbers and body.

Before any lasting change can take place, your mental game has got to be as on point as your workouts. Part of that process involves understanding your cognitive distortions, aka thinking errors. David has picked the most common ones he sees his clients dealing with and gives examples of how they effect their lives.  Back in the gym, David is facing a new workout and Ryan is (finally) eating real food.

David has been living with someone and for now, that has changed due to careers and goals. As a result he had a binge eating episode--his first in five years--brought on by facing an empty apartment that used to be quite full. Later David talks to a young couple in Germany who have used the podcast to inspire themselves to make some dramatic changes in their fitness lives. Chef Stephanie Wright gives tips on safe holiday eating and David has some disappointing news that inspires him to take action--setting a goal of 15% body fat for 2019.
