I just let them live their best life and squat and lunge wrong for a little bit. I’m fully watching them and aware and taking in what’s happening but who am I to suddenly have a 100% accurate assessment of what’s going on with their endlessly complex body? Our bodies are so complex that I don’t think we will ever fully know. I have only been in the fitness industry for 4 years if I’m honest (don’t tell anyone 😬), but my personal experiences have felt like: the way that trainers and gyms go about things is founded on sales. If you want to sell something you have to give the impression that you know what you’re talking about. Big box gyms all about that prove your worth in your free consultations life. Maybe they’ll sell a giant package but over time there’s something missing because it takes a lot of thought , reflection, knowledge, personal experience, humility to *truly* help somebody. That’s why I always go back to thinking that the integrity of the coach and client relationship is the most important thing. My squat is always a little bit wrong but I know for certain it constantly changes overtime with my constant awareness that evolves over time. It’ll never be fully correct because my life and body are always changing. I just want to live my best wrong squat life. Living my best wrong squat life will at least keep me squatting and have fun with it 😂😂. I am kind of joking but I think the priorities of the fitness industry have been wrong for a very long time and coaches are absolutely petrified to be wrong because they feel like their sales (and ego let’s be real) are all banking on them appearing ultimately and completely right and having the ultimate truth. It’s risky to go on a different path and it may be a slower path and perhaps less profitable immediately. Also, people really do dismiss it if you are different and I’ve had people tell me I’m wrong or inexperienced for taking the approach that I take, several times, both directly and indirectly. So I’m not on team compensate or don’t compensate I’m on team live my best life . I liked this topic !!! I really really really do not like a lot of coaches or trainers so I appreciate both of your thoughtfulness and genuine curiosity and openness at a time that I have been fully over fitness 🎉

My thoughts on imposter syndrome : you can’t have imposter syndrome without the root of humility. Humility + hard work + integrity + passion + discipline + competence + skills lead you to a place based off of merit. But you’ve been so accustomed to having your head down, working hard, and getting used to that rhythm that it becomes normal. So when all of these ingredients make you arrive at a destination that you hoped you’d end up at, but maybe didn’t reeeeeally think you’d end up at, your mind and nervous system have to adjust to a new normal. It makes sense that a new reality like this would make your mind come up with rationale as to how you got there , I.e. Phil thinking it was his connections that got him into that position (although connection and relationship building is a skill in itself). It’s like the saying goes, opportunity + preparation = success. Phil, I hadn’t realized I had imposter syndrome until you spelled out your experience. Then I realized that I went through that same thought process and accepted it as reality (I thought I was only in a certain position because I was friends with someone in charge). Now I realize that was imposter syndrome !! 10 years later !!! Imposter syndrome is opposite of being a fraud. Frauds, in my opinion, are people with extreme personality disorders, or abnormal psychology (sociopaths, psychopaths, extreme narcissists). They get to their position of status and power by manipulation. They are void of humility and are caught in a cycle of incompetence (or maybe a base level competence that they can’t exceed) because they aren’t able to accurately self-reflect or take any sort of accountability , but continue their tactics out of self-preservation. I think the first person (one who experiences imposter syndrome) actually has confidence in their skills because their skills got them there. They were inevitably going to move forward with those principles - it’s a law of nature. The second person is psychopathic in their pursuit to cover up their incompetence, and never really progresses their skills (unless we consider being good at covering things up a skill). They are excellent as being perceived as someone who grows and excels, but if you look very very closely, they’ve been in the same place for a while. Imposter syndrome is just a natural response to a new level of success. It’s ok that it’s there as long as it doesn’t keep us stuck, and we have a tool to move forward out of it. Ok now my opinion on “fake it till you make it.” In the dance world - we always said it. I think it’s a great tool to move you forward out of stagnation. Why not fake it for a little while? If you’re someone like me that can get stuck from doubt and overthinking , faking it is forward motion. You don’t have to stay faking it, but that momentum could give you the inspiration that you need to actually learn - and maybe learn at a higher learning curve. It works for me because of the way I learn - through doing and through moving. It helps me break out of a paradigm that convinces me that I cannot do something. If you continue faking it, you’re probably a sociopath. lol jk but not I really like this topic because I didn’t realize how it applied to me until you guys were talking about it. We can work hard and succeed forever, but if we never think of ourselves accurately, then it will hold us back (I.e. perfectionism).

I watch the videos like Nabil does. His set-up is cooler than mine. I am not going to show anybody my set up because it would expose the mango that i've been trying to cut. Directly after watching this video, I watched a video on how to cut a mango. I have historically refrained from buying mangoes out of fear of incompetency at cutting mangoes. I decided to step out of my comfort zone and buy a mango. I am well-aware of my lack of skill set in cutting a mango. I am not good at cutting mangoes. I took the step and still bought it. I took the step and watched the video. The mango is completely butchered. The positive side of the story is that I can still eat it. It all goes to the same place. I am not an imposter because I am acknowledging the skillset that it takes to cut the mango, one which I don't have but am working on. I'm leaning into the discomfort, leaning on the knowledge of experts. It can only get better from here. I loved this video!!! You are both humble yet very competent

PHIL WHEN YOU WATCH HARRY POTTER 20 YEARS AFTER IT COMES OUT, YOU WILL NOT LIKE IT. IF YOU DRESS UP AS HARRY POTTER AND GO TO THE PREMIER, YOU WILL LIKE IT. IT IS A CONTEXTUAL THING. ITS NOT SUPPOSED TO BE A QUALITY FILM. Also this isn't me being a hater and I would never dare give a thumbs down. I am actively and happily engaging in this content as I foam roll
