They're stuck because they know what to do and can't quite do it consistently. The slow drift keeps winning. Chasing Excellence is for people who are already trying — working out, eating well, staying positive — but find themselves in the one-good-week, one-bad-week cycle. Ben Bergeron, Patrick Cummings, and a crew of authors, thinkers, and doers explore the five factors of health — how we eat, move, think, connect, and rest — and what it actually takes to crowd out the drift and build the life you keep almost living. New episodes every Monday and Thursday. Beyond the podcast: the Chase Club brings together a crew for daily lessons, monthly challenges, and the real work of crowding out the drift. The ChaseTracker app helps you track the Five Factors daily.","last_synced_at":"2026-06-04T22:21:09.386446+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/chasing-excellence-927578"},"episode":{"title":"Forever Fit | 6 Training Principles for a Yes-to-Anything Life","slug":"forever-fit-6-training-principles-for-a-yes-to-anything-life","published_at":"2026-04-27T10:30:00+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/chasing-excellence-927578/forever-fit-6-training-principles-for-a-yes-to-anything-life","show_page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/chasing-excellence-927578","url":"https://pscrb.fm/rss/p/mgln.ai/e/441/claritaspod.com/measure/prfx.byspotify.com/e/rss.art19.com/episodes/55d2039e-7a80-402b-9d9a-b5df2333c42f.mp3?rss_browser=BAhJIg90cmFuc2NyaWJyBjoGRVQ%3D--952c5701c84ad333c69d5faa668f8177091704f0","audio_url":"https://pscrb.fm/rss/p/mgln.ai/e/441/claritaspod.com/measure/prfx.byspotify.com/e/rss.art19.com/episodes/55d2039e-7a80-402b-9d9a-b5df2333c42f.mp3?rss_browser=BAhJIg90cmFuc2NyaWJyBjoGRVQ%3D--952c5701c84ad333c69d5faa668f8177091704f0","summary":"What does it actually mean to be fit for life — not just for a competition, a season, or a phase?
