Summary

You know there are many ways to measure your fitness gains. We don’t recommend measuring with a scale, but that may be one way that people do measure their fitness goals. You can also measure in terms of what your body can do, which is a measurement that we do recommend. But what about gains that are more difficult – or impossible – to measure and quantify, like your mood, your perception of yourself, or the way that you interact with other people? In today’s episode, we discuss those fitness gains that you can’t easily measure, and that may not be noticeable to anyone but yourself, but are still important.

Topics Discussed in Today’s Episode:

  • Fitness gains that aren’t measurable
  • Challenging the preoccupation with data
  • Changing the way you measure your own progress
  • How fitness affects your mood and stress levels
  • The fitness trampoline
  • The way that fitness can fill different gaps for different people
  • How fitness affects your perception of yourself
  • How doing hard things can make you more confident
  • How fitness can affect the way you interact with other people
