Hello all,
Even though you have made time to exercise and you have even made time to eat right (ok healthier), something is still missing. You think you are covering all the bases and still success is slow. This can be a result of two things; number 1: Success is Slow. It is a steady pace that pays off but on a gradual level. I guess the key word in that statement is gradual; meaning things progress slow, but they do progress. So you can pretty much get use to the fact that your workout is working out. Under these circumstances you are not necessarily dissatisfied but you might want to look into speeding up the process. Halleluiah!!!
Number 2: The Flip Side nothing is working except your frustration with the whole get healthy concept. Here you are doing your absolute best (ok you still cheat, but who doesn’t)? and nothing on the scale is moving, clothes don’t feel looser and no one…not even the best friend notices you are losing weight. What are you to do?
The Solution: Arm yourself with education. This approach you have heard on many commericals for children “knowledge is power” this is true for most success stories. Knowledge on fitness and nutrition is always changing so staying informed can really make a difference especially if you are the person who is giving all you’ve got and still nothing is working. You might gain success from learning how much protein you need and haven’t been getting and how something like that could turn on your weight loss button and you FINALLY begin to lose. Or you have been working your legs to get them tone yet they are getting bulkier not leaner you learn about resistance training with the ball and within a week your legs are looking better.
This is what knowlege can do to help your efforts. That being said, fitness and nutrition lectures are becoming more and more popular at gyms and fitness facilities. Leaders in fitness and nutrition know that it can take more than a great class or a sound diet menu (both good to have), but it also takes a healthy flow of resources that can really make a difference in the success of your efforts.
Knowing that, the FMWR Fitness Department at Fort Jackson strives to always bring you their very best in health and fitness programs; which now include fitness and nutrition lectures.
