Not seeing fitness results?

Think about this....

 

....everything you are experiencing right now IS a result.

 

Not happy with your belly?

 

that's a result

 

Unhappy with your strength?

 

that's a result.

 

SOMETHING has caused these things to happen.

So last week this happened....

......I consulted with a potential client who was on the cusp of joining our personal training program.

 

He needed to lose a lot of weight, was on medication for blood pressure and heart issues.

 

With huge worries of dying young.... to be honest I agreed with him.

 

He was at risk.

 

So we spoke, both got excited and I made a positive plan with him to get moving and DO something about it.

 

Which we started to do....

When you can't finish a program...

You know, I've probably started more programs than I've finished.

 

In fact, who am I kidding, I definitely have!

 

I've been lifting weights for over 17 years now

 

And every 2-3 weeks since day one I pretty much get excited about some new program, or diet, or exercise, or gimmick...

 

....and I want to jump in and try it!

 

But let it be known my followers, thy divine secret of all future gainz is....

a silly story about getting in shape...

every year I CONVINCE myself that I'm 'not in too bad of a shape'

 

I'm confident about my body and always have been

 

But as those calendar days get crossed off...

 

....as my holiday gets closer and closer....

 

I start to doubt myself.

 

I look in the mirror and start pinching and grabbing my belly fat and love handles

 

I take 'before' pictures and set out a ridiculously low calorie diet for myself

 

I promise myself that 'just 4 weeks' of no cheat meals is doable

 

I commit to training 5 days a week for 4 weeks

 

and at the end of 4 weeks, you know what happens?

Why fitness is confusing.

Ever had one of those lightbulb moments?

 

I have them all the time.

 

not because I'm particularly clever

 

But usually because I'm doing things so arse-backwards that when I finally see the light it's a big revelation.

 

Take lifting weights, for example.

12 hours of hell.

There's no way to say this nicely

 

I hate walking, unless it's around a park, or on a beach...

 

I really hate walking up mountains.

 

But my lovely clients convinced me to walk the Yorkshire 3 peaks this past Easter weekend.

 

And you know what.....

The truth! Nothin' but the truth!

Carrying on from yesterday's 'what they don't tell you about fitness' post....

 

here's a few more things:

 

1) you will NOT gain muscle from lifting weights

 

at least, not at the speeds you think

 

It takes 2-3 months of consistent weight lifting for a beginner to start gaining noticeable muscle.

 

Because the muscles prefer to improve neuromuscular aspects (co-ordination, muscle memory, technique etc.) first because they are less energy demanding.
