4 Actions to Take to Overcome Your Nutritional Roadblocks

Everybody wants to look lean and fit. Too many want a quick fix. Sadly, way too many give up when they stumble upon their first inevitable roadblocks. 

You will stumble. It’s NEVER easy. 

Success requires specific goals and the systems and structure in place to remain consistent. 

Here are 4 actions to take and return to when you come up against roadblocks. 

  • Do this ONE thing - TRACK YOUR MEALS - What gets measured gets managed 

    • Think of food tracking as an educational tool to gain insight into what you’re eating and how it affects your energy, mood, and progress toward your goals

    • It provides priceless clarity and dispels self-deception

  • Get your mind right - MINDSET MATTERS - Shift your identity to align with your future (true) self.

    • Our friend, Mike, had thought of himself as the “Fat Guy” for decades. That self-perception only undermined his efforts and dragged him backward when he faced obstacles 

    • You ultimately control your identity

    • Your mindset will determine your success or failure

  • Embrace the process - DIG IN - It may be hard, but it is pretty simple

    • Success is NOT complicated: SHOW UP, DO THE WORK, BE PATIENT

    • If there is such a thing as a “magic formula,” that is it! 

    • Commitment and patience are crucial, whether in fitness, nutrition, or personal growth

  • Get back in the gym - LFT HVY SHT - pick things up, put them down

    • Strength training is the best way to burn fat while building strength and healthy muscle

    • And we tend to eat well when we are training hard
