I've harped on this over and over throughout the years, but going to the gym consistently 3 days per week will yield far better results than trying to train 6 days per week but never being able to stick it out for longer than a few weeks. When it comes to training and fitness, we want to build momentum. Like dieting, many of you will come down hard on yourselves when you aren’t perfect. The same happens with training. We dream up elaborate programs that require 6 days per week and when we miss one - OUCH - we have ruined our week. With 3 days, you have a lot more wiggle room in your schedule. But if you miss just 1 day of a 6-day program, you're under pressure for being perfect the rest of the week. The more consistent you can be, the more momentum you build. And I want you building momentum early on to create that positive feedback loop (the more you do early on, the better you feel, the more consistent you'll be, and the better your results). Think about this when you start a new fitness program. How many days per week do you currently exercise?

These books should be essential reading for anyone interested in weight loss or healthier relationships with food. The authors do an amazing job of discussing the science and the psychology behind weight loss and they do a great job of dispelling the bulls""t out there. My personal favourite is probably the Jane Ogden book about the psychology of dieting which is short but very powerful. Have you read any of these books? None of these books are JARGON heavy and they do a great job of making sense of all the crazy weight loss information out there.
If you read at least one of these books you'll go a long way to ending your frustration with what it takes to lose weight.

And we know we need to follow some sort of nutrition plan. However, most people are so confused and don’t know where to start. Instead of trying to attack everything at once - which will add to your stress levels - just pick one thing about the way you eat. Pick the thing that you think will have the biggest improvement to your nutrition and focus on that for a few weeks. It could be alcohol, snacking, fast eating, too many processed foods, too many high calorie drinks, post workout “I deserve this” food, or anything that works for you. Try focusing on that for 2-3 weeks and then you can pick another thing to try. At least you’ll be able to tell if your plan is working or not as you’ve only tried to change one thing. How do you know what to pick? Ask yourself this questions. What’s the one thing I could do right now to feel better about my nutrition? Chances are, you’ll know what it is. See if you can start scaling it back or adding it in. Pick the thing that will have the biggest impact right now. It may even act like an automatic domino for other nutrition habits. I’d love to hear what your option would be. Comment below. |
