Beware the IG influencer impact

Things that don’t get you into shape long term

Carbs something to fear???

n Flexible dieting paradox (environmental impacts)

n As soon as I want an outcome, the inputs need to change and become more compartmentalised

n Do the basics before you make it complex

n Be careful of who you follow – is that information for you

Straight to result without the systems doesn’t get the results for good term.

You only know the way to answer a particular question but cant apply

Is the lifting makes you bulky myth dying?

Cardio is just about getting smaller but you need to send signals of building muscle

Identity

Stories you want to believe

Design your lifestyle so that its something you love showing up to

This is why you should focus on the process,

When you don’t know why you are doing something and how much it benefits you and how it create the person, the life, the body you want, its so much easier to justify the alternative

Its easier to justify your excuses if you are in a world of clutter and you aren’t clear on your systems.

But also know what you have to do to get the body you want. Be realistic about what it takes

Its like when you smash your elbow on the way to the gym – you can use that as an excuse not to go if you hate what you are going into

But if you know the benefit of it to creating your ideal self, its only a bump and youre good to go still

You can reinforce your beneficial thing with how you speak to yourself and reward yourself and CELEBRATE the small wins and what you did too which people don’t do enough they complain more

IF can have you burning less / fasting cardio

This is why systems are so important !!

People have the wrong idea of what it takes to train and build a body – they think they have to smash themselves and sweat and grind and get their HR up.

I don’t feel like I'm doing enough

I don’t feel like I'm smashing myself enough

People don’t thinkthey are doing enough

They don’t feel like theyre getting enough out of their investment – its like a scarcity mentality like I'm not getting what I'm paying for

So they apply this mentality to everything

Even when they go to a new buffet its like well I paid for it I need to get the most out of it

___ its not all or nothing, its building the systems to void the burnout

Work back into small stages and then get cozy in the process and make that your habitat because it really is where you are going to live.
