In this Great Day Fitness segment, fitness expert Joe Carabase reframes the New Year’s resolution conversation—shifting the focus from arbitrary goals to the behaviors that actually create lasting change.
With 2026 just weeks away, Joe calls out the familiar holiday trap of “all-or-nothing” thinking: indulging now in comfy clothes and holiday habits, while planning extreme, restrictive fitness routines for January that often lead straight to burnout.
Joe breaks transformation into three key stages—Motivation, Resistance, and Integration—and reveals how self-sabotage shows up differently in each phase. Instead of chasing perfection, he encourages a sustainable mindset that allows room for both health and enjoyment during the holidays.
At the core of Joe’s message is a powerful reminder: progress, not perfection. By separating who you are from outdated, unhealthy habits, real change becomes achievable—and maintainable.
This segment is a must-watch for anyone exhausted by the endless start-stop cycle of resolutions. Joe challenges viewers to stop waiting for the “perfect time” and start making small, practical changes now that actually stick.
