Tech-Driven Fitness: Tools, Truth, and the Temptation to Cheat the Process

Tech-Driven Fitness: Tools, Truth, and the Temptation to Cheat the Process

In this episode of 600 Pounds Down, Coach George dives into the world of fitness technology—from smartwatches and AI apps to calorie trackers and smart scales. But this isn’t just a gadget review. It’s a reality check.

Are all these tools helping… or just distracting?

Are we using tech—or hiding behind it?

George shares personal stories, practical strategies, and hard-won wisdom about how to make fitness tech serve your goals without enslaving your mind. This episode unpacks how to harness data for real transformation while guarding against the subtle traps of obsession, self-deception, and false progress.

Whether you're a beginner or a seasoned lifter with a wrist full of devices, this episode will challenge you to rethink your relationship with technology—and invite you to something deeper than metrics: honest, lasting change.

Topics Covered:

  • The pros and cons of fitness trackers, apps, and smart scales

  • How AI coaches are changing the game—for better or worse

  • The hidden dangers of performance identity and false progress

  • A 4-step framework to use tech without becoming a slave to it

  • Why discipline can’t be downloaded, and freedom can’t be coded

This isn’t about tech. It’s about truth. And the truth will train you free.
