This week’s podcast is about a frustrating place many people eventually reach.

Ryan, 47, a father of four, is on a mission he calls Project 50.

He started strength training three years ago and has done an incredible job transforming his health, dropping 30 lbs — which I'd estimate means 40 lbs of fat loss and 10 lbs of muscle gain. Bravo!

But now he’s stuck.

Not because he doesn’t know what to do, but arguably, because he knows (and consumes) too much, and he can't decide.

Should he keep cutting? Start a lean bulk? Take a break?

Every option seems right… and wrong… at the same time.

In this episode, I help Ryan move forward from his decision paralysis.

We talk about:

  • Is it time to purge his algorithm of fitness content?
  • How to decide between cutting and bulking (without overthinking it).
  • Why the feelings about your body will never fully line up.
  • The mistake that causes most people to spin their wheels for months or years.
  • And how to make a decision he's actually stick to.

If you’ve ever felt stuck and unable to pick a direction, this episode is for you.
