#108 - Overconfident, Under-informed: The Psychology of Dunning–Kruger

Thanks for listening to The Gap!

In the weight room, just like in life, confidence doesn’t always equal competence. This episode explores the Dunning–Kruger effect—the bias that makes beginners think they’ve “figured it all out” while seasoned lifters and coaches know there’s always more to learn.

We’ll cover:

How the Dunning–Kruger effect shows up in training and coaching
The risks of being “overconfident but under-informed” in strength & conditioning
Why true progress comes from humility, consistency, and proper programming
Real examples of athletes mistaking early success for mastery
Practical ways to check your blind spots and keep developing as an athlete or coach

If you’ve ever wondered why some athletes plateau early while others keep getting better, this episode will show you how self-awareness and humility are just as important as sets, reps, and load.
