Today I thought I'd share a few 'accepted beliefs' that annoy me in the fitness world, stay with me, you may find the truth hard to handle....
....but after the initial sting, you'll thank me.
:-)
1) You'll have to eat MORE than you think.
If you've gained more fat than you'd like it can ONLY happen when the body has been in fat storage mode.
Fat storage mode is caused by undereating.
So eat more often throughout the day, rather than starving yourself then overeating.
Read Morethere's only one thing that drives your motivation
it's the little nasty voice in your brain saying....
what's in it for me?
For example, losing fat is a 'you vs you' struggle where the 'good' side of your brain wants to eat clean, train hard and improve...
....but the 'bad' side is always asking what's in it for me?
Problem is, if you can't answer this question you will fail.
Read MoreAh the sun, we all love it.
It's a great reminder that summer is on the way
Which means suncream, ice-cold beer, melting ice-cream, sand in your shoes, endlessly reading the latest sexy-tease novel....
....but there's a bigger issue that nobody ever talks about...
Feeling GOOD about taking your top off (guys) or feeling confident in your bikini (girls).
I don't hear anyone talking about the fear of de-robing on the beach, do you?
Read Moremy weird trick of fitness....
I was walking through the park this morning
Coffee in hand
Sun a-blazing (weather's been awesome and makes you FEEL so much better, right?)
...then I saw them....
Read More"You're standing in the petrol station queue one wet Thursday afternoon, glance at a magazine cover model and just think 'fuck it, I'll never look as good as him/her.' "
Just me?
Read MoreIt's very easy to get comfortable in life.
Every time I've gained fat, it's due to getting comfortable.
Every time I've taken a step backwards in business, it's due to getting comfortable.
....and I'm sure we all know what happens when you get comfortable in a relationship!
Comfort breeds laziness.
Laziness is a lovely, warm, fuzzy feeling that holds us back.
It's the silent killer of dreams.
It's the demon that keeps you in a job you hate for a few too many years.
Read Morewhat do you really want?
I'll tell you something right now.
It won't be MORE stuff.
You don't want more money
You don't want more strength
You don't need to focus on that.
Huh? I hear you thinking...
...but stay with me.
Read MoreSeemingly for no reason?
Here's what to do to 'get back on it'....
I always wish I had a magic 'panic button' that would get me back on track.
The magic button doesn't exist unfortunately.
But here's what I do instead
**drum roll**
Read MoreI'm fed of seeing people failing to follow through on their goals
Good people too
People who should know better.
People who claim they don't have time to make a meal plan
yet have seen EVERY damn episode of that Tom Hardy thing on BBC
What. The. Fuck.
I'll change your life right now:
Read MoreHave you started off 2017 with a fitness resolution?
If so…
is this a complete reboot for you?
Maybe you’ve spent a few months, even years, of doing nothing? No training hard, no eating right?
First off, WELL DONE.
I’m proud of anyone who’s confident enough to stand up and say “I’m not happy and I want to improve!”
That takes guts.
But here’s the problem:
