Patience my friend…

I have seen it happen all too many times! People want instant results from their fitness and nutrition programs and when they don’t get them they abandon the program all together - never to experience what they could have achieved -they stop just weeks short of seeing spectaular results! Why is it that we don’t have patience to sculpt a beautiful body anyway? I can tell you the secret of the pro’s is that they are willing to work for it and I mean work hard! They know that they might not see all the weeks of suffering through hard workouts and eating cleaning until at least 6 weeks out and even then they will have 6 more weeks to fine tune and tweak before they hit the figure competition stage with their beautifully sculpted bodies. Look, patience is a hard thing - we all want to see the results NOW, not 6 or 8 weeks from now. But a funny thing happens if you hang in there for 6 + weeks - the 6th week rolls around and Kapoooow! It’s like all that hard work shows up in just one day and suddenly you are getting compliments left and right. It’s really sad when most people drop off around the 3rd or 4th week just right before their results hit. They throw their hands up and say - “see, another thing that didn’t work - nothing works for me”. Well of course it won’t! You need to stick with something longer than a month - get your heart in it and really DO IT! Yeah, it sucks not being able to eat cake and yummy treats - but if you really really really want a great healthy body both inside and out then you need to be willing to put in the time and get some patience! Work on it and you will see the difference and LOVE IT!

Q: I am trying to get fit and lose weight but I really want to avoid getting injured since I seem to have a tendency to get injured whenever I start a new workout program. My question is what is better for me running or walking?

A: Running will burn more calories per minute, but you need to start walking before you can run. If you start running before you have a good walking foundation you will increase your chances of injury.
