STRENGTH IS NEVER A WEAKNESS

Jul 21

EPISODE NO. 86

in this episode:

On today’s episode of Daily Gains, Chris dives into the phrase, “Strength is never a weakness.” He explores how developing physical strength impacts far more than your workouts—it’s a tool for building resilience in everyday life. From managing insulin resistance and improving posture, to keeping up with your kids, handling workplace stress, and overcoming poor self-image, Chris breaks down why getting stronger physically can make you stronger mentally and emotionally. In the Resilience Roulette segment, the wheel lands on perfectionism—and Chris shares how to overcome the paralyzing need to be flawless so you can keep moving forward.
