MED Get your daily MEDs

If you dont...... you may end up on them

What do i mean and why should you listen to me

I can only help you with the first part of that question 🙂

MED , stands for Minimal Effective Dose

Translate that to exercise

WHat is the minimal amount of effort I can generate to give me the most benefit?

When i train my clients , i train them for 30 minutes per session
I have learnt over time, that I can get and maintain good reslults for only 30 minutes per week

I will workout with full focus for up to 5 minutes per day in my strength training

If i incorporate full range of motion exercises (mobility/flexibility) that target multiple muscles and work them in a circuit, I can get a cracking workout (strenght/ cardio)

You could alternate upper lower body exercises, ranging from 30 seconds to a minute , and do that for a full 5 minutes,

You could also target upper body lower body on alternate days (using the same time frrames as above)

The only rule is, that if your starting point is zero (coutch potato) then next weeks effort needs to be at least a 1

Continue like this until you reach a level of effort that you are not prepared to go beyond, that also gives you the results you want

As for diet you can use the MED method as well

Intermittent fasting is the easiest method that I have found, that works for me

Focus on brunch and dinner eat in an 8 hour wndow ( beginning with brunch and ending with dinner)16 hr you dont eat.. Relax at least 7-8 hours of that time is sleep time.

The other MED method is the' Every other day diet'

Make effort to eat less every other day, and on the day you eat more freely... Aim not to eat like a couch potato

Because although you may be off the couch you will still be a potato

SUCCESSFUL CHANGE TO BETTER HEALTH & FITNESS

Have a compelling reason for wanting your change to take place

Set a really big future goal of what you would like to achieve with your health and fitness

Believe in yourself that if others can do it then so can you

Then decide on your first smallest step that you could take towards that future goal

Each day keep making those micro commitments
Gradually and naturally at your own speed build momentum

Hold firmly in your mind your compelling reason and your big future health & fitness goal

Change your current environment from one where it is easy to fail and hard to succeed

Instead change your environment to one where it is easy to succeed and hard to fail

Take your own unique path. There is no one right way; there is just the way that works for you

Eat wel.l Move Well & Think Well

When it comes to better health and fitness

We all have a general idea of what we should DO in order to have the outcome we would like. Many people start the Doing but never get to the having of a fitter healthier bod

The number one key to the required 'Doing' of having better fitness and health is our attitude towards the doing tasks. If our attitude is not fully aligned to those doing steps, our consistency with those doing steps will not be there.

Align your attitude to the tasks that are required of your doing and your health and fitness goals WILL happen

Use that same attitude that has served you in other successful areas of your life and bring to it your fitness

Attitude is everything
