Road Blocks

I know you have hit them as have I. You have been working so hard at the gym, eating all that gross healthy food and for what...your not seeing the results you want fast enough. Being healthy should be your first goal, you may not have rock hard abs right now but inside your body is changing and becoming that well oiled machine it should be. Your heart has less stress on it, your lungs are more open, and your digestive system is on point. Keep working hard and the inside results will start to show outside.

If your bored with your routine, get with a trainer for a session and let them expand your mind and refresh your workout. If you feel like you hit a plateu you need new routine to get those muscles out of that comfort zone and working hard again. Dont give up!!! Anything worth being proud of is going to take hard hard work, this could be 6 months or a few years until you hit those goals but I promise you, you can hit them! Its amazing what you can do once you stop making excuses and really apply youself so stop it and get it done.

Call me for a free first session, amazing rates after that to keep you focused and on the road to success. Dont ever think you are alone, we all get discouraged even me! But if you keep your eye on the prize I promise you, you will get there.

You guys make me proud and keep me doing what I love to do everyday :)

Fitness Plateu

We’ve all heard it before, I’m not getting the results I want why isn’t my workout working! What you have to understand is that your body is very smart and very adaptive. The more you punish it with the same routine its going to get used to it and program itself to that routine. The only way to see real results is to keep it on its toes by switching things up. Everyone from body builders to soccer moms have once hit a plateau in their routine. Your body works hard all day long to exude energy as well as store it, in other words it doesn’t want to lose weight.

 There are three different categories of exercise and its important to switch around to hit them all. We have Strength and Endurance which is your circuits, full body workouts, high cardio fat burning routine. Then we have hypertrophy which is simply muscle growth. Lastly Strength, this is the 1-5 rep heavy heavy weight routine to make you stronger. Ask your trainer to set up a routine and plan for you not just a workout once and done. Getting fit is a long journey its never going to happen over night or even in a week. You need to commit and understand what your getting into. Getting on the treadmill everyday for 40 minutes does not constitute a workout. You need to work your muscles in order to hit those goals and get good results.

Try that out and see how it goes, I will post a workout tomorrow based on the first exercise category on the list and then the others there after. Have a great Monday, start the week off strong and get moving!
