I’ve recently noticed something more than usual but still more times than I care to count. Does this sound familiar to you? Two people start a fitness program at about the same time. They have about the same body type and goals. Neither one has a clear advantage over the other. Yet one person gets dramatic results quickly, while the other continues to flounder and struggle.
What’s the difference? What separates one from the other?
Simple: Its structure.
All of us, myself included, perform better when we’re following some kind of structured plan in life. Pick any topic. Your job, a home project, school, it’s all successful when it’s structured.
It’s no different with fitness. Going to a big commercial gym with no guidance, no one to motivate you, and no plan to follow isn’t going to get the results that you want.
But following a structured workout program and simple nutrition guide — both prescribed by an experienced, certified coach — can make all the difference between life-changing results and give up.
The structure takes all the guesswork out of achieving your fitness goals:
— Knowing what exercises to do, how many days a week, and how many sets and reps allows your body to respond to the training in a way that can’t happen when you’re following a random, haphazard approach.
— Knowing what to eat, and how much, shifts your metabolism into fat-burning mode and helps preserve lean muscle.
— A structured support system — with access to knowledgeable experts and people with similar goals and challenges — can help you power through when the going gets tough.
You can take the guesswork out of fitness. But you can’t do it without a structured plan. If you’d like to share your goals and challenges so we can come up with what a good plan might look like for you, just shoot me a reply.
Stay focused and on your plan.
