About this podcast
Most approaches to health and fitness fail for one reason: they attempt to solve complex problems with incomplete models.
Reconsider... with Bill Hartman is an exploration of the principles that govern human behavior, movement, and performance through the lens of the Unified Health & Performance Continuum Model.
Rather than focusing on exercises or protocols, these conversations challenge the assumptions behind what you believe to be true. Because better outcomes are not the result of better tools, but better reasoning.
If you are a practitioner, coach, or deeply curious learner, this podcast will help you ask better questions, recognize flawed frameworks, and build a model that adapts to complexity instead of collapsing under it.
