Today’s post is short and sweet. I want to give you 4 things to think about when you are determining whether or not you are making progress toward your goals.
Take a look at this picture. My goal is to gain lean muscle mass. These pictures are 10 weeks apart.
This is what I want you to know.
1) We need more than 1 way to measure progress… the scale is exactly the same 10 weeks later, but inches are down and pics are changed. Imagine if I stopped because the scale didn’t change and I believed I wasn’t making progress?
2) Adding lean muscle mass at age 41 means… it’s never too late, in fact - we are just getting started!
3) Embracing your body means that if it is meant to grow muscles, help it out by feeding it and exercising it.
4) Carbs are necessary to make this shift in 10 short weeks. In fact, carbs are increased by 50% from pink shorts to black shorts.
And - what I tell my crew…
Transformation is embracing who you are. Do that, and some strategic nutrition/exercise programming, and the rest will follow.
