Each part will reveal a new technique on how to build consistency into your exercise routine and turn that once hated event into a consistent pleasure where you reap the benefits. Say good bye to punishment, frustration, and feelings of being overwhelmed and say hello to your new life.
By now you know what you truly want and can start down the road of happily achieving it. If you missed part 1, please follow the link at the bottom of this article to pick it up.
The key to being consistent is to be happily achieving your goals. If you are enjoying the process, you are much more likely to stick with it. So your next step is to figure out WHY you want the goal you designed in part 1.
WHY?
You might have heard this before, but let me explain some of the reasons behind the importance of having a great WHY and the critical things to include when doing this step.
The first reason to having a great WHY is that it will be the initial fuel to get you into motion towards achieving your goal. It is the spark to get you off your butt and into action.
The next step, is to fully go down the path of figuring out the WHY behind your goal. It will act as a filter that weeds out the unsupportive reasons behind your goal. Write down all the things your new body will bring you. Now go back and remove the reasons that don’t support you.
We can not address all the “bad” reasons in this article and how those reasons will undermine your goal, but we can in the full course. Just follow the link at the end of this article to pick it up for free.
There are many great benefits of taking better control of your body and getting into the shape of your dreams. A bunch of those benefits are indirect. Things like:
Feeling more attractive
Getting noticed
Feeling confident about yourself
Attracting more attention
Feeling happy
Peace of mind
Although these indirect benefits do generally occur when improving your fitness level, there is a big trap in measuring your fitness success by those standards because they are INDIRECT benefits.
What you want to do is focus on the direct benefits when measuring your success, but focus on indirect benefits when thinking about how great your new body will feel.
Measure your success based on things like:
Body fat
How you feel when doing your cardio
How long you can do your cardio
Your flexibility
How much you can lift
If your pain is reducing
Your blood pressure
Etc.
Make sure you write down all the great benefits (direct and indirect) and wonderful things that will happen in your life because you achieved your fitness goals. It is ok to make the results larger than life. When you think about why you are going into the gym, you want to be excited and happy and have tons of enthusiasm.
Now that you have an outstanding “WHY” you want to go get your fitness goal. It might be exaggerated a little and a little over the top and that is ok. When it comes time to evaluate if you are getting results, make sure you only look at the direct benefits. ONLY use your WHY, to get you excited about going to the gym and to keep you going there.
Congratulations on a job well done and make sure you join us in part 3 of:
