Do you really want to be fit?
Do you ever give up what you want MOST for what you want NOW? Think about it… If what you want most is to lose the weight—once and for all—but then you give in and order pizza for dinner, you’ve just given up what you want MOST (a healthier, leaner body) for what you wanted NOW (convenient and comforting food). It’s worth thinking about. Are your actions congruent with your goals? This is true of any goal, it’s not limited to...
Be A Fitness Role Model
Who’s watching you? Getting fit and healthy is an individual journey. It takes focusing on yourself, your choices, your progress, and ultimately your results. And so it’s easy to be fooled into thinking that it’s all about you. Sure, it is about you, but at the same time, each and every choice that you make, and action that you take, is being noticed by someone. Who’s watching you? Your kids. Kids care very little...
Eat Healthy and Exercise: Choose Hard Now or Hard Later
Let’s face it, getting and staying fit and healthy is hard work. There’s all the effort that you have to put out in making wholesome meals. There’s the will power that you must muster in avoiding unhealthy (TASTY!) foods. There’s the energy that it takes to get out of bed early to get in a workout before the day begins. There’s the struggle to lace up your shoes at the end of a long day to head out and be active rather than diving...
Don’t Fall For Fitness Trends
Do you keep up with new trends in the world of fitness? There always seems to be a headline proclaiming the latest and greatest trend, each promising to be the solution that you’ve always needed. Of course, these trends pass with the seasons quickly being replaced with something newer and more popular. Today I’d like you to consider the only trend that really matters to your health and fitness progress: the trend of your own behavior....
One Thing You’re Missing for Weight Loss Success
There is one reason why most people haven’t yet reached their goals, and it’s a simple one. It’s something that I’ve sometimes struggled with in the past, and it just may be the one thing that’s holding you back from your big breakthrough. That one thing is consistency. Think about it. The difference that separates a fitness star from a couch potato is the consistency with which the former applies to their diet and exercise routine....
Have a goal? Here’s how to meet it.
Do you have a specific fitness goal that you are hoping to achieve? This goal could be a number on the scale, or a clothing size. Or maybe you are hoping to wear a certain cut or style of clothes like strappy tank tops, shorts, or a bathing suit. While having this goal is great, it will NOT guarantee success. You knew that, though, because this isn’t the first time that you’ve had a fitness goal. A goal that you didn’t meet. In fact,...
The Sum of Your Lifestyle Choices
Today is a big deal… You woke up this morning and began making choices. You chose whether or not to exercise, to eat a healthy breakfast, or to do something productive. You chose whether or not to eat that doughnut, to sleep in, or to watch an extra hour of TV. At the end of each day the sum of your choices pushes you in a distinct direction. It could be pushing you in the direction of fitness and health, if your choices were...
Focus On Progress Not Perfection To Lose Weight and Get Fit
Do you follow fitness stars on social media? Their perfect, chiseled body images popping up in your news feed to give you just the right amount of motivation to get you into the gym. Or does it? Striving for perfection usually doesn’t work. Quite frankly, perfection is unattainable and will always leave you falling short and feeling bad about yourself. Instead I like to remind myself of this quote: ‘Strive for progress, not...
