Staying healthy during lockdown - Chris Irvin #268

Coming up today, RIP dieting. Why the "January diet" mindset is scientifically doomed to fail, and why radical, deeper approaches to diet are getting stunning results. Today on Biohacking News, New Year's Resolutions are starting to waver, especially when it comes to physical health.  So, how are biohackers hacking that? I'm joined by health coach and author Max Lowery, founder of the Never Diet Again movement. We talk about: why most New Year weight-loss resolutions fail by February how to break the "all-or-nothing" mindset and the small, science-backed habits that actually move the needle. If you're tired of calorie-counting, guilt cycles, and short-term results, and you want your New Year's resolutions to stick until February, this one's for you.

It's 2026, and the Resolution Illusion is alive and well. Every January, the same thing happens. Everyone sets goals, faithfully writes them down or downloads an app to help, and eventually gives up by February. But what if the problem isn't motivation? What if it's the way we approach goals in the first place? That's what today's episode is all about...  the science, and the changing trends, around goal-setting, habit formation, and mindset.
