Have you struggled with weight loss, fitness and health goals for a long time? Months? Years? Decades?
Does it sometimes feel like you've tried everything under the sun and you just can't seem to get any closer to your goals?
Or worse....you get closer, and then any progress you did make...just gets lost as the weight piles back on?
We see this EVERY. SINGLE. DAY.
And, myself and my team have experienced this ourselves...all of us.
In this episode, Gordon explains why we do this to ourselves, and how to interrupt the pattern so that it never happens again.

They say that perfection is the enemy of progress...and they're right.
In this solo episode, Gordon explains why consistency is far greater than perfection. He also highlights how the most successful people in fitness and health of ALL TIME are consistent, they aren't perfect.

In this episode, Gordon goes over how the body actually utilizes energy to perform functions, and how when that's misunderstood it's very easy to think you're doing things right when you aren't and vice versa. Gordon also goes over specifically what needs to happen both nutritionally and in workouts/training in order to do a few things:
1) Get the body fat off
2) Get that lean, defined look
3) Keep those results permanently without supplements, pills or other nonsense

Sometimes it seems like everyone around you is doing so much better than you.
They're losing weight easier, they seem happier, and life seems to be flowing better for them in every area.
Why is this?
Especially in that one area of health, fitness and weight loss. Ever ask yourself "How does everyone else seem to be able to do it but ME?!"
This sometimes makes us wonder... "what am I missing?"..."I've worked so hard but made no progress, what's the secret?".
Sound familiar?
In this episode we get into IT and what that looks like.

In this episode, we discuss the difference between wanting to have the body of your dreams permanently, and NEEDING to have the body of your dreams permanently.
What we've found over the years is that when someone has ultimately decided that this is a genuine NEED for them, then they show up BIG in 3 key areas:
-Decisive
-Coachable
-Committed
When you carry these 3 traits and you absolutely need to finally shed the weight, get into the body of your dreams and do so in a way that's ACTUALLY sustainable and realistic, then prepare to have success because those are the barrier to entry. After that it's just strategy, mindset and accountability that carry you across the finish line because ACTION will follow once the commitment is established.

In this episode, Gordon and Scott bring you a tale of two women that desperately want the body of their dreams, and try as they might, they never get there. (FYI this applies to men as well, with subtle differences).
Unfortunately for these two women we're going to describe, they have no shortage of work ethic, determination, or grit. However, their underlying kryptonite breaks them down from within, leaving them disappointed, upset, frustrated, and feeling like a fraction of who they KNOW they are.

The overwhelming majority of fitness companies, trainers & coaches talk about getting "real results FAST" and how they can get someone "shredded in 12 weeks"...but how much of that is permanent?
What will happen to that person after 18 weeks, or 24 weeks? Will they still have their results? Or will they have to buckle down and repeat that same diet plan and workout plan to get those results again?
That is not a healthy way to live, nor is it sustainable.
And it certainly isn't permanent.
In this session, join PERMAFIT co-founders Gordon & Scott as we break down what exactly sustainable nutrition is, and why 99% of people who struggle with weight today will struggle for the rest of their life if they don't take the time to learn this now and adopt it into their lifestyle.

What does it actually mean to be committed to your health and fitness?
Does it mean to grind endlessly in the gym?
Does it mean to eat the same, bland meals every day?
Does it mean to give up your social life so you aren't tempted?
Does it mean no more alcohol ever again?
There's a big misunderstanding around fitness and health and what it means to be committed to change.
In this episode, I dive into what this means and the difference between being "curious" about change and "committed" to change.

In this episode I sit down with Zachary Babcock of Underdog Empowerment. He has spent the last few years going against the grain to build his company and brand with all the cards stacked against him.
Everything that we discuss in this episode is 100% relevant to fitness and health objectives, as well as those who are struggling to do ANYTHING big or impactful. I always say that achieving amazing fitness and health goals is simple, but not easy, and as we discuss in this episode, anytime you staring up the mountain of transforming your body or building something amazing, you will be in the position of the underdog...but THAT is the advantage, as long as you can see it.
Give this one a listen and make sure to let me know if it resonated with you.
