I’ve heard from and worked with tens of thousands of people over the years. I literally have over 200,000 emails sent and received in my inbox, and the most common regret fitness regret that people have shared with me is just not starting sooner. So if you haven’t started yet, please start. I know you’re not motivated.
Of course you’re not motivated. Motivation does not create action that creates results. Action creates results. That creates motivation, but you’re afraid that you don’t have enough willpower to see it through. Well, are you sure that you need more willpower or do you just need a routine that requires less will?
Maybe you don’t need to do as much as you think you need to do to get into great shape. In fact, that’s probably the case if you spend a fair amount of time on social media, looking at jacked people doing two hour workouts, six days per week, for example, did you know that doing just one strength training workout per week puts you ahead of 58% of Americans?
And if you do. Workouts per week. Strength reading workouts, you are ahead of 70%. If you do three to four per week, you are in the top 13%. And when you look at it that way, the wannabe fit persons week is almost the same as the actual fit persons. The fit person. Does a few workouts and the wannabe does none otherwise, 98% of their days can be exactly the same, but in time the fit person has a physique and the wannabe has nothing.
And if you add some walking into the mix, if you start walking a lot, then you are truly a breed apart because research shows that most people take just under 5,000 steps per day. That’s it’s about 40. Total walking every day. So if you can beat that, you are at an advantage. And if you can double it, if you can go for 10,000 steps per day, which is more marketing than evidence-based prescription, but it is a good target to go for if you can do that.
You are at the top of the pile. And did you know that eating just a few servings of vegetables per day makes you a top 10 percenter? Just a few servings, and eating less than 50 grams of added sugar per day is well above average 50 grams. And if you drink eight cups of water per day, that is a habit of the top 22% of Americans.
And look, none of that is to say that staying on the beam is easy because it’s not. It’s hard, but it’s much hard. To live life completely out of shape and unhealthy than it is to do a few strength training workouts per week to go for a couple of walks every day, and to mostly eat like a responsible adult.
Do you want to transform your body, but you just can’t seem to break out of the rut? Have you read books and articles, watched videos, listened to podcasts, but still just aren’t sure exactly how to put all the pieces together for you? Or maybe you know what to do, but you’re still struggling to stay motivated and on track and do the things that you know you.
Do Well if you are nodding your head, I understand getting into great shape is pretty straightforward when you know what to do, but it’s not easy. It takes time, it takes effort, it takes grit. And that’s why I created my v i p one-on-one coaching service. We take people by the hand and we. Everything they need to build their best body ever.
