Description: This episode of Off The Strength is all about getting real and practical with your wellness journey. Hosts Tony Vidal and KR Jones kick things off with a hilarious exchange about unsolicited wellness gifts (who needs a trench coat, really?). 

Then, they delve into their own struggles this week: KR describes the woes of scraping the bottom of the toothpaste tube, while Tony recounts a brutal battle with bad lettuce (seriously, avoid questionable restaurant alternatives!).

These experiences lead them to a crucial question: how do you identify and break bad habits? They discuss the importance of self-awareness, setting clear goals, and understanding your personal triggers. 

KR emphasizes the value of checking in with yourself to see if your indulgences are controlling you or vice versa.

Later in the show, they tackle some interesting headlines in their "Ripped from the Headlines" segment:

• Fitness Influencers and Mental Health: Social media stars can inspire healthy habits, but the pressure to live up to unrealistic expectations can damage mental well-being.
• The 70s Wellness Revival: Economic downturns seem to trigger a focus on self-care. With echoes of the "me decade," the hosts ponder which 70s wellness trends they'd like to see return (spoiler alert: it's not the questionable fashion).

Call to Action:

• Be sure to check out the clips from Bike Yoga with Off The Strength, and come out for the next one at Pier 76 in Hudson River Park!
