Different levels of fitness requires different levels of effort.
Achieving those different levels though is a gradual process as member Annette is finding out, and she sent me this message last night.
“My first week of training went quite well.
I am definitely feeling more alert and my diet is much better although I could probably still improve on it. Drinking loads of water which is making me feel less tired. I have stuck to my workouts, even when I went camping because I don’t need to use any gym equipment.
I can do them anywhere plus they are pretty short which is always a bonus for me!!
Cardio workouts are the ones I look forward to most but feel absolutely lousy while doing them ( I am soooo unfit).
Never mind, I’m sticking with it no matter what!
Annette”
Annette is clearly on a path to where she wants to get back achieving big things once again. She knows she has to work through different levels before she is anywhere near where she was before. She knows she will get there though as long as she sticks with it!
She also knows that she can do her workouts literally anywhere, and shes not tied to a gym and the limitations that can bring.
Debbie is clearly back in the swing this week, and enjoying something new that has done a lot to stimulate her interest and reawaken her passion for health and fitness again.
She also has great experience with injuries, and has the know how on how to avoid any pain in her workouts.
These are people who have done it all before, who have been at their peak and for various reasons, have slid back a bit in terms of their fitness and maybe body fat, and want to experience the big high’s they had from being at their best.
They both know though that they have to experience those different levels on the way before being ready to make the jump up, one level at a time.
The good news is though that because of muscle memory, their bodies remember where they’ve been before, and the rate of progress this time is likely to be far more rapid than first time around.
Once your body has experienced big highs of low body fat, a leaner harder body, more energy, more self-esteem, more self-confidence, looking great in clothes, having more enthusiasm for everything in life, an all time level of health and vitality etc etc, you really want to get there again and once you start believing again, you know you will want to get there as soon as you can, and to me that’s a great thing!
So what are you waiting for? Let’s finish the week on a high, and get ever closer to your best condition and the way you feel. No slowing down now, lets go and get it!
