Transcript:

You can say that you don’t have time to exercise, but if you have an hour to puddle around on social media or Netflix, you also have the time to do a home workout or even just go for a walk, which by the way, burns a couple hundred calories per hour, is easy on the body, minimally impacts muscle building and preferentially burns body fat.

And yes, that’s me telling you to go for more. Walks, walking is indeed a form of exercise, a very underrated form of exercise, so get walking every day outside if you can, in the sun, if possible, in nature, if possible. It is probably one of the simplest things you can do to improve many aspects of your health and your fitness and your wellbeing.

Now. You can also say that you wish you could be the person you believed you could be when you bought all that produce, but if you can just track the food you eat every day for a week, you can learn a lot about your eating habits and you can find very easy ways to better align your diet and your meal plan.

To your goals and your preferences. You can also say that you’re looking for that game changing supplement, but if you are not getting enough sleep or eating enough nutritious food, then the perfect supplement for you, my friend, is a vila to the face. And so what is the moral here? Well, it is this first.

We get excited to start then. We get stuck and we want to quit, then we keep bashing away. Then we make it a habit, then we win. If you like what I’m doing here on the podcast, and if you wanna hear my musings on mastering the inner game of getting fit so you can reach your fitness goals faster. Check out my book, the Little Black Book of Workout Motivation.

In it, I share wisdom and insights from hundreds of scientific studies and scores of legendary artists, authors, entrepreneurs, philosophers, generals, and conquerors, as well as my own biggest aha moments that have helped me overcome the things that were most holding me back. Here’s a little sneak peek of what you’ll find inside.

The easiest way to instantly increase your willpower and self-control in any situation, no matter how you feel in the moment. Three, science-based psychological tricks you can use to stay strong during moments of temptation. A simple 10 minute technique for beating, procrastination and skyrocketing productivity.

How to stop telling yourself, I’ll be happy when, and find immediate joy and satisfaction right where you are. The 40% rule that Navy Seals use to dig deep and screw up their courage when they need it most and more and all that is why I’ve sold over 60,000 copies of the Little Black book, and Wyatt has over 1004 and five star reviews on Amazon.
