Welcome back to another episode of Arnold's Pump Club.

Today, I'll be sharing a fascinating phenomenon that can help you build better habits.

0:09.9

I'll also be answering your questions from Reddit and sharing a new challenge.

I created this podcast because I believe that fitness is for everyone.

0:20.5

So I'm using the power of machines to deliver news, motivation, and advice that will make you

0:27.1

healthier. And because I know you're busy, I won't take up much of your time.

I might not be a cybernetic organism, but I do have an important mission to build the positive

0:40.2

at least four times per week, started eating more fruits and vegetables. While it might not seem

2:06.2

groundbreaking, there's a bigger takeaway. If you find yourself struggling with a new healthy habit
