Reasons to GET FIT! Call for your Fall Fitness Assessment / Consultation today!

I spend a lot of time talking about what it's like to be working towards your fat loss goal, with your ideal body somewhere off in the distance. 

Today I'm going to switch perspectives and turn the focus onto how it feels to BE at your ideal size.

In addition to getting you pumped up and motivated to work even more diligently towards your goal, studies have shown that people who visualize accomplishing their goal have a higher success rate of achieving it.

If you are still working towards your goal then sit back and let the following Reasons to be FIT really sink into your mind. Visualize the following as being a part of your reality.

Reason To Be FIT #1: You Always Look Your Best
When you are at your ideal size,  clothes just look and feel better. Every Day.  Friends, family members and co-workers tell you how great you look and that you've never looked better. Oh and by the way, you feel good too!

Reason To Be FIT #2: Increased Self confidence
The act of accomplishing any worthwhile goal is enough to boost your confidence, and this is even more apparent when reaching a fitness goal. When your body goes through a transformation,  there's no hiding it. You are tighter, leaner and more confident. You stand straighter, walk taller and exude a confidence that can't be missed.

Reason To Be FIT #3: You Have More Energy
Before you met your fat loss goal, getting off the couch was a challenge...one that you didn't always win. Now that you are fit, you have new energy!  You thrive on motion and activities that used to tire you out.

Reason To Be FIT #4: You Are Strong
The life of a truly fit person knows no limits! In your free time you hike, bike, walk, pick up new hobbies and play with the kids. Picking up items that used to feel heavy is now a breeze.

Reason To Be FIT #5: You Have Less Health Worries
Gone is the lecture from your doctor about the many risks of weight-related ailments. Those days are behind you.

Reason To Be FIT #6: You Enjoy Life a Little Bit MORE
You never knew how much your low fitness level  had held you back from excitement and adventure until the day that burden was lifted.

No Energy To Exercise?

What do you do when you're too tired to exercise?

We all know the facts. Working out is good for you. Besides the fact that you might actually like yourself, it lowers your risk for disease. It's not that you don't necessarily want to, you just don't have the energy! Maybe you've purchased that workout program, started a few days, but that is as far as you got. Now you feel like a failure and it makes you hate yourself that much more!

People say, "Well if you would exercise, you'd have more energy." It seems like a cruel cycle because you don't have the energy to exercise in the first place!

I learned I was looking at this all wrong. Allow me to explain. Imagine you're building your dream house...

You have it designed exactly the way you want it to look. It's beautiful. Anyone driving by could see how lucky you are to have this amazing home. Here's the problem. You spent so much time and money making sure that the outside was perfect, that you didn't do anything to take care of the inside. The plumbing is not functional, there is no electricity or water. This home has no value! It's pretty but you can't use it!

I believe we do the same thing to our bodies!

We try these hard workout programs or maybe even just running. We wonder why we can't preform or even have the energy to start. We haven't taken care of the inside of our bodies!!!

If we are not going to learn how to eat, we are wasting our time. Your body needs the proper fuel to run in life, healthy proteins, water, healthy carbs and antioxidants, and we're trying to run it on empty!

Maybe you don't know how to eat. You see no carb, fat free, sugar free, low calorie EVERYWHERE! How is anyone supposed to know what to eat?

So what is right? I have learned first hand how to fuel my body. Start by adding good quality proteins (grass fed beef, free range organic chicken, free range organic eggs) and add them to healthy carbs (sweet potatoes, broccoli, apples). Add lots of water and you'll go from operating in the negative to turbo charged!

My message is this. "Tired" is your bodies' way of telling you - SOMETHING IS WRONG!

I guess the question is, Are you going to listen?
