Why 90% of Health Advice Fails (and the Easy Fix No One Talks About) – Dan Go

Struggling to stay consistent with your health and fitness goals? The problem might not be your workout plan or willpower, it could be how you see yourself.

World-renowned fitness coach and entrepreneur Dan Go shares how to make health and fitness part of your identity. With over 20 years of experience in personal training, weight loss coaching, and fitness mindset transformation, Dan has helped thousands of professionals and parents lose fat, build muscle, and create sustainable healthy habits. His own journey began with a personal health scare that reshaped his entire approach, revealing what truly drives lasting change, how chasing outside approval can quietly derail progress, and why living as the example creates the most powerful ripple effect. 

That purpose, whether showing up for your own goals or modeling consistency and discipline for your children, becomes the anchor that keeps healthy habits in place for life.

Key Takeaways

Identity-Based Fitness – Become the person who chooses healthy habits without thinking twice.

Purpose-Driven Motivation – Tie your goals to what matters most so they’ll outlast any obstacle.
