Brett Hoebel’s Top Workout Tips
Hey, even I get the excuse “Not today” from clients who must be in top model shape.
It’s natural when energy is low or willpower is absent.
They’ve already paid me, so it’s not the money; it’s just human nature.
My answer is, “Yes. Today. I’ll see you at 6. You’ll thank me.”
Exercise is NOT AN OPTION.
It is a reality, and you’ve simply got to do it every day.
Sure, if you’re doing a serious workout program you need recovery time, and we build that into the schedules, but that doesn’t mean sofa-surfing time.
You should still walk, bike, and be active.
Top ways to stay consistent for the long term:
1. Accountability – You must make a commitment to your health and fitness. If you don’t, you have no chance of working out daily.
2. Attitude Adjustment – I mean your way of thinking. Don’t think of workouts as torture. Consider it maintaining (or improving) your health.
3. Make it Convenient – Make your home “fitness friendly.” Keep your hand weights, resistance bands, exercise shoes, and a mat where they’re easy to grab.
4. Be Supportive – Get a fitness buddy. By supporting them, you’ll find that your priorities shift for the better.
5. Do not use a scale –Only weigh yourself once a week or so. It is so easy to get discouraged by normal weight fluctuation, and discouragement can result in quitting.
6. Keep It Fresh –Don’t get in a rut with your favorite workout. Anything becomes stale with too much repetition. (Brett has personally given you 12 workouts!) Mix it up and keep the pounds melting off.
7. Check Your Ego at the Door –Of course it doesn’t feel good to do a move you can’t do perfectly, but tell your ego to pipe down and keep working to master moves that challenge you. You will master the move if you stay with it and keep consistent.
Often the only difference between fit people and unfit people is that the fit folks have found a workout program that they love, while the unfit ones haven’t yet.
