Eric, Steve, and Brad have a unique conversation about tracking and bringing mindfulness to a behavior. The coaches discuss the distinction between tracking to learn more about what you’re currently doing versus tracking to change a behavior. Sometimes just tracking a behavior is enough to get the desired outcome and sometimes *not* tracking something can lead to better outcomes. Along with discussing the different types of tracking, the coaches also go through how to choose what you should track, behaviors and nutrients they have tracked or had their athletes/clients track, moving towards/approach goals versus moving away from/avoidance goals, facilitative versus nonfacilitative perfectionism, what you can do if you want to lose body fat but tracking your calorie intake causes a lot of stress, and a lot more.
