Routine is the enemy of progress

Show of hands.

Who goes to the gym, works hard and wants to get great results?

OK. Awesome. Just what I thought.

Another show of hands. Who is getting great results?

The last picture was in jest. I know a lot of people are getting good results.

What is the difference between who is getting good results and who is not?

To be honest there are many factors.

Today I am going to focus on one thing that could be the difference between you have the body that you want and you complaining about not getting results.

"Routine is the enemy of progress."

In life habits and routine are helpful and, as a matter of fact, are pretty much the KEY to success.

Not in the gym. In the gym when you get into a routine that in the opposite of how you get results. You get results by shocking the crap out of your body.

The wellness coach at the gym will you to add weight to your machines when you can do 15 of more. That's stupid. What happens when you max out the machine?

So which is more creepy: The boots or the hat?

Answer: nothing. You get bored and frustrated LONG before you get to that point.

So. Do you want results? Do something different! Do things in a different order. Do things at a different time. Go to a different trainer. Do something that you HATE doing. Do 2 workouts. Do 3 workouts. Get in the pool. Ride a bike. Swim. Bike. Run. Go rock climbing.

Hopefully you get the point. If you want the body of your dreams you need to...

1. Have the mindset of a champion.

2. Fuel your body the right way

3. Workout with an athletes mindset

That is it.
