Alright it’s time to listen up because I’m getting the sense you need to hear this…

There is NO magic pill.

There aren’t magical teas that actually make you lose weight. You can’t wish for your results. 

So what can you do? You can WORK!

Stop telling yourself that you’re doing every thing that you can.

Stop telling yourself that you eat healthy and workout everyday and that nothing works for you.

People always ask “how can I look like you” or “how can I look like _________”

The answer is you need to be willing to work, you need to be willing to hurt (your heart/lungs/muscles, not your joints), you need to be willing to fail.

When you walk into the gym are you mentally present?

Are you ready to give your workout every bit of energy, focus and grit that you possess?

Or are you using your workouts as your social hour?

Are you just going through the motions to make yourself feel better and to have the ability to say that you worked out?

Are you actually dialed in with your nutrition?

Are you getting enough sleep?

Are you challengeing yourself in the gym?

Are you actively trying to lift heavier, run harder and beat the person in the mirror?

Do you have a coach?

Are you coachable?

Chances are you are not.

If you want results, you need to chase them relentlessly.

You cannot be scared of a little sacrifice and hard work.

Anything great that you have accomplished in your life has come on the tail end of suffering and hard work….

…you should treat your body with the same effort, focus and intensity.

Your body will thank you and your mind will be stronger than ever!
