Episode Summary:
In this episode of Sport Is Life, Ian Hawkins challenges the common belief that getting back into shape is a "long road back." Instead, he encourages a mindset shift—seeing health and fitness as an ongoing journey rather than a struggle to return to past performance levels. He shares personal insights on forming sustainable habits, the power of self-coaching, and overcoming setbacks with a measured, adaptable approach.
Whether you're rebuilding your fitness routine or looking to stay consistent, this episode provides practical strategies to help you move forward with confidence.
