Summary

In this episode of the Optimal Body Podcast, Dr. Jen and Dr. Dom, both doctors of physical therapy, discuss the challenges of creating habits around consistent exercise routines, especially as motivation fades after New Year’s resolutions. They emphasize starting small, using accountability, and creating habits through simple cues and systems rather than relying on motivation. The hosts share practical health tips for integrating movement into daily life, highlight the importance of enjoyment and social support, and debunk myths about needing fancy equipment. They encourage listeners to “just press play,” focus on progress over perfection, and join their supportive Jen Health community for help in creating habits that last to overcome consistent pain and aches.
