Episode Summary

The main reason why people seek chiropractic care is that they want to change. Most people want to change their symptoms, reduce their pain, and improve their health. They want to decrease their symptoms, have their joints move freely, and return to activities they value. Many people also want to change their health and are looking for guidance, assistance, and empathy. However, some people are apprehensive about seeking chiropractic care because they are worried about being told they will need routine chiropractic adjustments for the rest of their lives. Patients want active solutions and personalized treatment plans. Chiropractic adjustments and passive therapies can provide short-term pain relief, but many people want more than that. They want to actively participate in their treatment and make lifestyle changes to improve their overall health and well-being. However, it can be challenging for people to stay motivated and make lasting changes. There are often barriers in everyday life that hinder their efforts. The conversation explores the importance of motivation and small consistent efforts in making big changes. It discusses the effectiveness of different behavioral change strategies and the power of small interventions performed consistently over time. The conversation also highlights the benefits of working in groups or communities to enhance motivation and achieve positive results. The example of CrossFit is used to illustrate the concept of constantly varied high-intensity functional movements. The main factors influencing fitness outcomes are volume and intensity, which are strongly correlated with the environment and community. In a hypothetical experiment, participants who trained in a community-based CrossFit gym would likely achieve higher volume and intensity compared to those training individually at home. Community support and shared physical struggles contribute to better results. However, guaranteeing 100% participation and equivalent intensities from all participants is unlikely in the real world. The training program consisted of in-person group sessions and individual self-led sessions. Participants logged their session data through an app. The group sessions had a 70% participation rate, while the individual sessions had a 55% participation rate. Formal team dynamics improved participation rates. One team achieved a 91.9% participation rate for aerobic sessions and a 98.9% participation rate for strength training sessions. Another team achieved a 70% participation rate for aerobic sessions and a 55% participation rate for strength training sessions. The program motivated participants to exercise three to five days per week. Forming groups and sharing resources and goals can lead to success and motivation. It is a natural human tendency to form communities and share burdens. Failure to share and collaborate with others may hinder personal growth and achievement. Change begins by clarifying the changes you can make to achieve your goals. Focusing means identifying the specific results you want and the changes you believe will help you achieve them. Understanding why you want to achieve a goal and why you are motivated to walk a specific path is vital for long-term motivation. The planning process is important, and goals can change over time. Change can be intimidating and demoralizing, but it is natural and may require refocusing and adjusting. Some people can make big changes on their own, but it is okay to seek support and guidance. In this conversation, Chris Netley emphasizes the importance of support and mentorship in achieving success in rehabilitation and making lifestyle changes. He highlights the role of a mentor in guiding and walking alongside individuals on their journey. Chris also mentions the value of improving sleep, nutrition, and stress management during the rehabilitation process. He emphasizes the need for patience and a strong sense of purpose when pursuing long-term goals.
