Fort Worth Personal Trainers: I Made this Decision and I’ve Never Felt Worse! (VIDEO)

We’re 4 months into the new year and 10 weeks from summer.

Are you happy with your health and fitness?

Because the fact is where you are now is a direct result of the choices you’ve made in the past 4 months.

If you’re NOT seeing the results you want. here’s 4 crushing truths you must recognize and know when it comes to dealing with plateaus and failure.

1) It’s probably not your genetics, hormones, age, spouse, office mates, or kids holding you back

2) It probably IS your food

3) More training/activity actually may be the answer in some cases

4) YOUR results reflect YOUR day to day decisions

Getting results from your fitness program, isn’t like one big event.

Unfortunately the before and after photo’s of clients you always see would suggest this

But…

Those transformations didn’t happen overnight.

The after picture of a person that for example lost 30 pounds.

That 30lb loss is the sum of thousands upon thousands of single decisions to do the healthy thing.

Decisions like

“Stop for fast food or go all the way home”

“Eat everything on my plate or use portion control”

“Go to the pizza party or avoid it”

“Go to happy hour or go to boot camp”

“Do I sleep in or workout this morning”

And it goes on and on and on.

And one of the hardest decisions is to get started. Which is the RIGHT decision.

Tell me…Have you ever heard someone say.

“I made the decision to started exercising and eating better and I’ve never looked or felt worse.. It’s terrible and I hate it. What I really want is to grow a big ole belly”

NO. It doesn’t happen.

Starting IS the right decision.

And make NO mistake it IS your decision.

And like one of my mentors, grumpy old Dan Kennedy says..

“The failure to act is much more often the product of inner, emotional resistance than external resistance. To move forward you must give up your story, whether it is excuses about your childhood, lack of education, your “bad luck”, your unsupportive family, your low metabolism, where you live, etc.”

Tough words, but they need to be heard.

By you, me, all of us…we can all do better.

The day to day decisions we make will make us or break us.

Fort Worth Personal Trainers: How Do I Get My Spouse to Exercise? The Cure for “Lazy Husband” Syndrome (VIDEO)

The question of “How do I get my spouse to exercise?” is such a loaded question.

Because there’s just so much I/you don’t know about peoples relationships and motivations.

It’s not just about the exercise.

A “reluctant spouse” is so common that we even discussed it a meeting of fitness business owners.

It’s pervasive.

It’s called the “Lazy Husband Syndrome”.

Usually the common symptoms are first a girl decides that she wants to lose some weight and get in shape.

Then she invests her time, money, and effort into a good coaching program or fitness camp.

She starts getting into shape, meets new people, starts feeling better about herself and loves it.

She also would like him to want to get into shape too.

And the husband/boyfriend wants nothing to do with it.

The husbands reaction can range anywhere from total active support (taking child duty, changing his diet too, rearranging his schedule).

The other end of the spectrum is sabotage with the spouse bringing junk food home and lending no time support.

But either way it’s on her to make it happen.

So what IS the secret to getting your spouse to exercise?

You can see the research and hear the story here in the New York Times…

Click Here=>How To Get Your Spouse to Exercise

What’s interesting and instructive from this research is something we consider a pillar of success in our program.

Social Support

From the article..“The study found that changes in one spouse’s routine tend to be echoed in the other’s, highlighting the extent to which our exercise behavior is shaped not just by our personal intentions but by the people around us as well.”

The WHO you’re around MATTERS!

How DO you get your spouse to exercise?

By leading by example.

A majority of non-exercising spouses that were interviewed in the first year of the study, had taken up exercising at the follow-up 6 years later.

The key was the primary exercising participant in year one.. just kept going.

You pick up the habits of those you are around.

And whether or not you realize it, you’re influencing those around you.

The VERY BEST thing you can do to lead your spouse toward the exercise habit, is to keep showing up.

That is the key to getting your spouse to workout.

And YOU stay with it, just like the article states. by being around people with similar goals.

Hope you have a great day.

Fort Worth Personal Trainers: 3 Uncomfortable Truths about Weight Loss and Getting in Shape (VIDEO)

Today’s video newsletter is a little different.

As much as I like to support, encourage, and sell the positive and life changing benefits of getting into shape.

There are somethings that those who don’t get people in shape for a living don’t know.

In the past 20 years my team and I have helped over 2000 Fort Worth residents get in shape and we’ve learned some lessons along the way

It’s not all puppies and sunshine unfortunately.

But if you can prepare yourself ahead of time for these uncomfortable truths.

Your chances of success skyrocket.

#1 The Most Successful People have these 2 qualities.
a) They Show Up

This is the KEY to results both short and long term.

The MOST successful fit for life people how up, and show up, and keep showing up.

Notice I don’t say and lift weights, or show up and run 10 miles, because the what you’ll do over time will probably change.

And somethings you enjoy at 25 you may not have time for at 35 so it changes.

The key is the showing up part.

Those that fall off the wagon and don’t climb back on, just don’t do well.

Focusing on this one thing, showing up consistently and 80% of your weight loss and fitness problems will solve themselves.

b) The Never Give Up
Those people you see that have been or are “fit for life” have this one quality.

And it’s not really apparent on the surface which is why it’s sometimes missed.

They never ever give up working out and eating well.

When they have an injury, they find a way to work around it.

When they travel and the food isn’t exactly what they’re used to, they make the best choices they can and keep on truckin.

When the Holidays come they plan ahead to make sure they can eat right and workout no matter the interruption to their schedule.

When they go through a divorce or a career set back they focus on just getting workouts in and doing something consistently, because they know they’ll feel better for making themselves a priority.

#2 The Path to Fast Results isn’t in Exercise frequency it comes from Hard Dieting.

This is a very uncomfortable truth.

It’s simple but not easy.

Hard dieting comes from knowing what’s going in your mouth, and being accountable for it.

There’s more often than not elimination of some of your favorite foods.

There will be sugar and alcohol withdrawal.

There will be headaches and body aches in the beginning.

And the only thing you can do is gut it out.

Hard calorie restricted diets will get you to goal faster than any other method.

The exercise during hard dieting, helps you keep on track food wise, helps burn fat, and makes you feel physically and mentally better.

#3 If You Keep Doing What You’re Doing You’ll Keep Getting What You’re Getting.

If you keep putting off starting your work outs until Monday. And you keep putting it off each Monday for 6 months

You’ve GOT to do something different.

If you say you’re going to go on a diet, and change your eating habits, but you keep finding yourself eating fast food, not having a plan, and eating ice cream because you feel guilty about not going on the diet you said you would go on.

You’ve GOT to do something different.

If you join a gym. Walk on the treadmill and wander through the weight room because you don’t know where to start.

You’ve GOT to do something different.

I’ve met clients that have spent years procrastinating. And within weeks of working with us have made progress toward their goals.

Don’t let these uncomfortable truths hold you back from getting the positively life changing results you’ve deserve.
