Make Peace With Food

Building Consistent Habits That Drive Results with Erik Cain


Listen Later

Achieving your fitness goals is not about pain to gain. It’s all about building consistent habits and showing up every day. You don’t need to push yourself too hard to get the results. Focus on what your body feels, not the exterior physical looks. Health and fitness are a part of who you’re, and you can't get the results you want if you punish and hate yourself through it and don’t allow yourself to be curious and experiment with the things you enjoy.

Reclaiming your health is much easier when you stop putting pressure on yourself and start enjoying your fitness journey. Identify what you enjoy and stick to it until it’s a habit. Once it’s a habit, it’s easier to do the not do.  Don’t overestimate what you need to do to achieve the results you want, and don’t underestimate what little and consistent habits can do for you. Consistency is what drives results, but there has to be a desire. If you are not enjoying, there is no desire, and where there is no desire, there is no consistency. 

In this episode of Fall in love with Fitness, Erik Cain shares with me his journey of transformation after struggling with dieting for a very long time. He explains how food became neutral emotionally to him and how you can have a Why that resonates with you to build healthy and consistent habits, enjoy your fitness journey and find your transformation.
