Sweating means you had a good workout, right???
Heavy breathing means you had a good workout, right???
Never resting means you had a good workout, right???
WRONG.
None of these things inherently mean you had a good workout…
I used to spend all of my time running on the treadmill… sweating, breathing heavily, and pushing myself until I was about to pass out….
I THOUGHT that meant I was doing the right stuff. I would get strong, fit, & healthy…
But I was wrong. I did these things for YEARS. Trapped myself to the treadmill (I hate running by the way) because it’s what I thought would work.
I learned that you can workout every day, and not see any physical changes at all.
I learned that you can do tons of cardio… only to have your body lose all muscle tone.
I learned that you can deprive yourself of food… and still not lose any weight.
I learned the hard way that these tactics just aren’t it.
You don’t have to be like me and take the long route (actually I would highly recommend against it).
Learn from my journey… go to the gym to TRAIN. Be intentional. Get the most out of your time and energy. Get proper recovery. And EAT the dang food.
Picture 1: me after years of listening to the fitness industry’s advice... such as hours of cardio, beach body workouts, extreme dieting
Picture 2: me after 1 year of (mostly) consistent strength training, eating lots of food, and taking days completely off from the gym
I’m here to help you shortcut this flawed system and jump ahead by years worth of mistakes and experience… you know where to find me :)
