Episode Synopsis

Hey team! Justin here. I'm incredibly excited to share this episode with you because it dives into something I'm deeply passionate about—the biopsychosocial model that forms the foundation of everything we do at Feel Strong Fitness.In this episode, I break down why I believe treating you as a whole person—not just a collection of muscles and movements— is absolutely crucial for real, lasting results. I'll walk you through why your biology, psychology, and social environment all play essential roles in your fitness journey.I explain what the biopsychosocial model is and why I've built my entire coaching philosophy around itI share examples of how seemingly simple health issues often have complex underlying causesI reveal why I believe standard, one-size-fits-all fitness approaches consistently let people downI take you behind the scenes of how we apply this model at Feel Strong FitnessMy experience shows that addressing only one dimension while ignoring psychological and social contexts leaves gapsI'm convinced that the biopsychosocial model offers a more compassionate, effective approach to fitnessI truly believe this perspective will change how you think about your own fitness journey. Give it a listen, and let me know your thoughts!
