Today we’re talking about HABITS :how we make them, how we break them, and why they are so important to our lives. We love thinking about how to make positive change. But it’s a bad habit to keep obsessing about our habits! We all know resolutions don’t work. You know what does? A routine you will actually do. Peloton Instructor and fan favorite Cody Rigsby joins us to talk about the importance of bringing the fun into your fitness and life - in order to keep it all going. Social Psychologist Wendy Wood also joins us for a conversation about what it takes to start new habits and the importance of feedback loops.

In our final episode of the season, we’re talking about how to be happy, healthy and whole with the inimitable Peloton Instructor, Jess Sims. We’re reflecting on the season’s themes - Stress, Strength, Self Expression, Habits, Comparison, Competition, Body Image, Endurance and Rest. What are we taking with us? What are we leaving behind?
You are only as strong as your last recovery. We all need to rest, and not just because resting makes us more productive. It’s because rest and recovery are essential to being human and being strong. The legend, TV show and podcast host and Peloton superfan, the Bronx’s own Desus Nice joins us to talk about recovering from hustle culture and the joy of being part of someone else’s rest time. We’re also joined by psychiatrist Dr. Pooja Lakshmin to talk about tapping into our feeling brain versus our thinking brain in order to rest.
Research tells us that a key part of enduring and persevering is envisioning the future. And a big part of that envisioning is hope. Hope for the future you want. Peloton Member Jess Morales Rocketto is an organizer for social change. She thinks of her job as motivating people into their purpose: What do you care about? Why do you care about it and what are you going to do about it? She’s often pretty sure that something is going to push her past her limits and that it will be difficult but she does it anyway - and that is endurance.
Endurance is both physical and emotional. We build physical endurance so that we can keep going in the face of everything that life throws at us. We practice perseverance so that we can keep pushing towards the life that we dream of. So today we're going to talk about how to train for our discomfort and then how to create a clear vision for getting there. Peloton Instructor Robin Arzón joins us and talks about what it takes to run 27 marathons - how much of it is in your mentality. Dr. Carla Meijen - sports psychologist - takes us on a deep dive of our relationship to pain.
This episode talks about weight & body image. We understand this can be a sensitive and challenging topic. If this is a topic that you find triggering, we suggest listening to another episode of Fitness Flipped. Tunde and her guests are always here to support you!
