146 | How to Build Healthy Movement Habits

Wanting to kick-start your movement journey, but don't know where to start? Wondering if a 30-day challenge is for you? Wanting to create more sustainable and healthier habits? DocJen & Dr. Dom navigate the world of healthy movement habits, speaking into the upcoming Grateful For My Body challenge, starting November 1st. Firstly, they discuss what to consider when kickstarting your journey to creating a habit, and why looking at adding in instead of avoiding may be more beneficial. Then, Dr. Dom speaks into creating a 1% goal and what it means to start small, addressing the importance of assessing instead of guessing. Finally, they dive into what is unique in this year's 30-day challenge. With highly adaptable and modifiable workouts, accountability, community, and a guide to keeping you consistent, DocJen doesn't hold back on the education and cueing to truly help you explore the body.
