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":"2026-07-13T22:17:08.907423+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/chasing-excellence-927578"},"episode":{"title":"Forever Fit | Learn to Breathe (+ 9 More Habits That Upgrade Your Training)","slug":"forever-fit-learn-to-breathe-9-more-habits-that-upgrade-your-training","published_at":"2026-06-29T10:30:00+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/chasing-excellence-927578/forever-fit-learn-to-breathe-9-more-habits-that-upgrade-your-training","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/b04c7a78-0497-4bc9-a733-e9d97c9d8890.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/b04c7a78-0497-4bc9-a733-e9d97c9d8890.mp3?rss_browser=BAhJIg90cmFuc2NyaWJyBjoGRVQ%3D--952c5701c84ad333c69d5faa668f8177091704f0","summary":"What if the problem isn't your program — it's how you're showing up for it? In this episode, Ben and Jamison break down 10 training hygiene habits that can transform your results, regardless of what you're training for, where you train, or what program you follow.
