Wednesday Wisdom: Excellence is not what you think...

If you sit down and analyse your behaviour with your fitness, it will most probably look like this:

Try starving yourself on 1200 calories, lasts three days, fail

Try train every day as hard as possible, lasts three weeks, fail

Try getting 20,000 steps per day, too unrealistic, feel like a failure, fail

You're looking for "excellence" in one big act.

But what if I wold you this?

"We are what we repeatedly do. Therefore, excellence is not an act but a habit." - Aristotle.

Instead of looking for the big life changing jaw dropping fitness fad, go for incremental changes.

6,000 steps per day to 8,000 steps per day.

3,000 calories per day to 2,500 calories per day.

3 workouts per week to 4 workouts per week.

I'm aware this doesn't sound hardcore and you won't see people posting about this on social media or fitness magazines but I have worked with a ton of people with real problems that have achieved real results that last.

And they haven't had all of this success by trying an extreme keto and intermittent fasting diet on 1200 calories.

They did it by small and slow incremental gains.

Excellence is a habit, not an act.

Get into habits of things that make you a little bit better every day and 8 weeks later you will look back and not even recognise who you once were.

Sound good?
