Most people overcomplicate fitness. They chase trends, focus on details that don’t move the needle, and struggle to stay consistent. Dr. Andy Galpin joined Jay Shetty on On Purpose to cut through the noise—breaking down the real keys to losing fat, building muscle, and sticking to a plan that works.
The first step? Personalization. The best program isn’t the one with the most hype—it’s the one designed for you. While the fundamentals of strength training, nutrition, and recovery apply to everyone, execution needs to fit your physiology, schedule, and goals. Perfection isn’t the goal—precision is. The right plan is the one you can actually follow.
Most people fail because they focus on the wrong things. Instead of looking for shortcuts, Andy brings it back to the basics: progressive overload, high-quality protein intake, and a structured plan that compounds results over time. The best training program isn’t the most extreme—it’s the one you can execute consistently. The same goes for nutrition. If it’s not sustainable, it’s not effective.
Mindset is the final piece. Motivation is unreliable. Discipline wins. The people who succeed don’t wait to feel motivated—they build systems that hold them accountable. Small wins, structured habits, and a focus on execution separate those who try from those who achieve.
If you’re tired of spinning your wheels, this episode delivers the clarity you need. Andy breaks down what actually works, backed by science and decades of experience working with the best in the world.
