TPM Health & Fitness

Busy week 🎄

Chat GPT reckons that 80-92% of New Years Resolutions fail

It reckons the percentage of diets that fail is even higher than that

The undeniable truth here is that change is hard

Always

If you want to be successful when it comes to making a change you’re going to need 4 main things

1. An understanding of where you are currently and why
2. A clear view of where you want to be
3. A detailed plan on how to get there
4. Support for when problems arrive

That’s what I want to give you over the next 2 weeks, completely for free

Want to get involved?

All you have to do is hit the link in my bio or comment below FREE and I’ll send you all the details of how to join the team!

As I want to ensure the challenge is as valuable as possible on it’s first run, I will be limiting spaces - so if you’re interested in working with me for free, don’t hang about...

It’s pretty difficult to ‘not’ do something

If your goals look something like

- Don’t have takeaways 🍔
- Don’t drink 🍺
- Don’t miss workouts 🏋🏼‍♀️

You’re putting yourself in a position where you’re having to rely solely on willpower to push through

Instead look at what you can do instead

- What are you going to eat when you’d usually get that takeaway?
- What situations do you find drinking a problem? Can you avoid them or do you need to approach them differently?
- What makes you skip the gym? What can you do instead?

Adding habits that support you in your journey is always going to trump removing old habits

What could you get started with today? 👀

It’s not always about working harder

When Lisa first started she was already putting in the effort, all we had to do was refocus those efforts into what actually brings results

Instead of hours of cardio, we focussed her efforts into weights sessions that are planned and tracked so that we know that she’s progressing from week to week

Instead of focussing on getting her calories lower, we focussed on increasing protein and fuelling her sessions

The outcome speaks for itself

If you feel as though you’re putting in effort without getting the return it deserves, DM me to get your coaching journey started! 📥

Let’s not over complicate getting back on track 👀

DM me the word “coaching” or click the link in my bio to enquire!

Yesterday I talked about why I think you should still be training in December, even if you can’t be arsed

Today I want to tell you how I go about helping my clients do that even when they’re shorter on time and motivation

We start from a point of knowing that we absolutely could just relax and not worry about it, BUT

1. We’d feel worse for it in the short term. You should feel better, physical and mentally, when you’re training regularly, so it makes no sense to stop

2. We’d leave ourselves with a lot of work to do to ‘get back into it’ in January

But we also accept that time might be shorter, here’s how we deal with that

It’d be easy to hit the ‘F*ck it it’s Xmas’ button when it comes to your training over the next few weeks

It may seem tempting

Dark mornings and evenings, things to do, presents to buy, parties and family get togethers to attend

But think about it like this, I know you’re busy, but do you actually feel better when you stop finding time to look after yourself?

Do you feel less stressed when you stop exercising?

Do you enjoy the parties, get togethers and meals out more?

No-one’s expecting you to be getting in the best sessions of your life over this period (although don’t rule out how good training can feel the day after a big meal out)

But you owe it to yourself to continue to find some time to look after yourself during this period and your ‘January 1st’ self will thank you for whatever effort you’re able to give now

Remember, exercise in December is never about ‘burning off’ what you’ve eaten or punishing yourself for having a good time

As always, it’s about having the discipline to push yourself even when you don’t feel like it because you KNOW that you’ll be glad you did
