There are less than 60 days left in 2026, and instead of coasting through the holidays, I'm challenging you to pick ONE big physical goal and chase it before December 31st.
In this episode of the Fit Fathers Fellowship Podcast, we're talking about the Misogi challenge, the power of setting difficult physical goals, and how busy dads can finish the year stronger than they started.
I'm sharing my personal goal of bench pressing 325 pounds before the end of the year, plus a simple five-step battle plan you can use to chase your own fitness milestone.
Whether your goal is to bench 225, run a faster mile, hit 10 strict pull-ups, or set a new personal record, this episode will help you turn that goal into action.
In this episode:
Why you shouldn't wait until January to get in shape
The Misogi concept and the value of doing hard things
How to choose one challenging, measurable fitness goal
Five practical steps to accomplish your goal by December 31st
