Let's cut to the chase – achieving fitness goals isn't all sunshine and rainbows. In fact, there are some harsh truths that many people prefer to ignore or don't want to hear. But if you're serious about making real changes to your health and fitness, it's time to face these truths head-on.
You don't really want to change!
You like the idea of change but are still unwilling to modify behaviours and lifestyle choices. If we are honest with ourselves here, how many times have you set a fitness goal, only to abandon it a few weeks later? The truth is, wanting to change and actually being willing to put in the work are two very different things. It's easy to say you want to get fit, but when it comes down to waking up early for a workout or saying no to that extra slice of pizza, suddenly the motivation wanes. Until you're truly ready to commit to making lasting changes, your fitness goals will remain just that – goals.
Motivation is Bul*$s!#T
You know those inspirational quotes plastered all over social media about "finding your motivation"? Yeah, they're pretty much useless. The reality is, motivation is fleeting. The feeling of “MOTIVATION” comes and goes like the wind, leaving you high and dry when you need it most. Relying on motivation to get you through your workouts is a recipe for failure. Instead, focus on taking action –have discipline and build habits. Consistency is key, even on the days when you'd rather stay in bed than do your workout routine.
You're getting in your own way!
Ever heard the phrase "you are your own worst enemy"? Well, when it comes to fitness, it couldn't be more true. YOU enquired for a program, course, coach etc. but when it comes time to making a decision, YOU find an excuse. We're masters at self-sabotage, whether it's making reasons, procrastinating, or succumbing to negative self-talk. But here's the thing – the only thing standing between you and your fitness goals is you. It's time to stop making excuses and start taking responsibility for your actions. Acknowledge your shortcomings, but don't let them hold you back. Push through the discomfort and watch as you become the best version of yourself.
So, there you have it – three harsh truths about fitness that you may not want to hear. But here's the silver lining – acknowledging these truths is the first step towards real, lasting change. If you're ready to take that step, then Bootcamp is here to support you every step of the way.
