The All-or-Nothing Trap: Why One 'Off' Moment Makes People Quit (And How to Break The Cycle)
The Fundamentals of Fitness by Alison Berrisford
Episode notes
Have you ever missed one workout, eaten one unplanned meal, or had one stressful day — and felt like you’d ruined everything?
In this episode of The Fundamentals of Fitness, Alison breaks down the all-or-nothing trap: the pattern that causes people to switch off completely after small slips, even when they care deeply about their health.
You’ll learn why this response isn’t a lack of discipline, why guilt and urgency fuel the cycle, and how to stay engaged when things aren’t perfect. This episode is about building a middle ground — so consistency doesn’t disappear the moment life gets messy.
If you’ve ever found yourself “starting again on Monday”, this one’s for you.
