We all wanna change right now! Drop the fat this week! Stop eating crap by tomorrow! Be fit already!
The truth is it is a process, and a process that takes time.
You need to figure it out and find what suits you best. Not just following what someone else did.
I tell all my clients to keep some tools in the tool box and pull them out when needed.
What I mean by this is when you have hit a wall and progress has stopped you still have some tools to use.
If you try to change everything tomorrow from upping your training, changing your diet completely, fixing your sleep etc… when you hit a plateau you have to then up everything you have changed.
Instead, tomorrow try this (or today) cut back on a food that you eat too much of and remove 1 food you don’t need. Small but effective. We are not starting a whole diet regime but making a small change to bring calories down.
If there’s no weight change then we can further address the diet or else change tool and focus on exercise and increase daily steps or training frequency.
This way we can keep making improvements and we can see what works and doesn’t work.
When you change everything at once it’s harder to pin point what has worked and didn’t work.
This is obviously different if you are under time constraints and have a target to hit by a specific date i.e. wedding day or something like that. Then you will need to be a lot more strict.
But if right now you’re just getting back into the swing of things start small and manageable and start building up the momentum.
