Over the next few weeks, you’re going to see a TON of crap promoted by fitness influencers. 14-day detoxes, 30-day challenges, “muscle-confusion” secrets, the latest and greatest chest/abs/bi’s/thighs blaster workouts… you’re going to be bombarded with options, most of which probably sound pretty good.
Truth is....
It's the exact reason you NEVER get the results you want in the first place. First of all, go back and read my ELITE article here.
Remember, sustainable results take TIME. If you are looking to build muscle, GREAT....dedicate 6-8+ months to it! Don't back out once you see a smidge of fat on your belly! You need to eat in a surplus and realize you wont be the skinny peeled model you want to be.
Want to lose weight? AWESOME....dont diet for 2+ months and keep telling yourself you are "strong enough" to beat the cravings. Your body will get ruined and hormone health will hit the shitter quicker than you can say BURPEE.
The BIGGEST issue everyone has is trying to rush their results. Truthfully, I map out my training and know the type I am doing for half a year!
Getting impatient and trying new programs every few weeks is the biggest mistake I see most “fitness” people make.
Stop being impatient and start being smart about the reality of knowing how long it took your body to be where it is today....
Some silly new workout program promising XYZ won't help you.
What you SHOULD be focusing on this New Year is improving your LIFE battles. Mainly, the people you hang around!
The power of your environment is very, very real. Especially with regard to the company you keep.
While many coaches harp on you being the average of the 5 people you surround yourself with, it's ALSO important to look at it from the other viewpoint...
The negativity you drown yourself with will eventually ooze through your blood. Toxicity affects you in profound ways, from your emotional state to your very perception of reality and what truly is important in life.
Many clients I've worked with ultimately find the GREATEST success when they get rid of the toxicity in their life holding them back. YES, it can be hard, but it will be WORTH it. Nothing is harder than having these conversations, but what happens is that it holds you back from being the best version of yourself.
There’s a quote I love that encapsulates this well....
“Before you diagnose yourself with depression or low self-esteem, first make sure you are not, in fact, just surrounded by assholes.”
Get rid of the assholes!
Stop trend hoping on your fitness routines.
Start enjoying your life and 2022!
To do this, you need to be proactive and take a stand to finally change your life. If you live in fear, you will never get where you want.
If you delay and say you will wait, you wil never get where you want.
Action, perfect or imperfect....is the key to growth!
I will be opening coaching spots the middle of January if you want to schedule a call to get started and see how I can help click here.
Have a great week,
