Fit For A Comeback

#13 You Think You Quit… But You Didn’t Even Let Yourself Start

Episode Summary

This one’s for the person who keeps starting over—and never giving themselves the chance to finish. In this episode of Fit for a Comeback, Nick Venuti breaks down the real reason most people never see long-term success with their health goals. It’s not because the plan is wrong. It’s not because you “don’t have time.” It’s because you keep ghosting yourself the second things get hard. From gym memberships that fizzle out to coaching programs abandoned after week three, this episode calls out the cycle—and shows you how to break it. Nick explains why we procrastinate on the things that matter most, how false starts and perfectionism reinforce a broken identity, and what it really means to build belief through reps. If you’ve ever felt like you’re “just not consistent,” this episode will change the way you see yourself.
