Train Hard Live Strong

We've all asked ourselves, "why me?", but have you ever just asked yourself why? It's happening to you because it's just meant for you, that's the easy problem to solve. The next one is, "how am I going to improve to never let this happen again?". We spend a lot of time wondering about others, diving into other people's problems, and taking on negative unecessary energy that just has no need in your life. All the noise in this world cause disruption against your actions needed to achieve your goal. In this episode, I will teach you otherwise.

With social media nowadays and the fitness space being extremely saturated, I feel that people get the wrong idea on what health & fit looks like. Being healthy and fit DOES NOT mean that you're lean and shredded. It DOES NOT mean that you have booty gainz. What being healthy and fit means is you're taking time out of your days to work on the five pillars of life performance.

Whenever someone who is really fit walks into a room filled with people who don't workout or simply don't take care of themselves everyone will look at this person because they carry around not just the body to show, but discipline, self respect, and ambition.

Jumping into anything that demands leaving your comfort zone, will create challenges in your life that you're unprepared for. This is a side effect of pursuing your goals. Another side effect is achieving progress, creating happiness, and improving confidence. All these side effects are from creating new limits, new challenges, and new habits/routines towards a life improvement. There will be challenges and setbacks within your path, but it will always be up to you to control your outcome. This is where the true growth happens.

Do you have insecurities you just hate about yourself? Are there things about your body you just wish were never there? Do you ever compare your body to others and think "I wish I looked like that or had her butt, legs, arms, tummy, etc". You can drastically transform your body overnight, but those insecurities will always stay until you begin being honest with yourself and work on them. These things that we tell ourselves in our head define how we act in this life. The insecurities you might have might be effecting the way you are in life and the confidence you have about yourself. Be honest with yourself and gain that true happiness.

When life tends to get difficult we have an opportunity to make two choices: 1) Take the hit and quit, or 2) Analyze the situation, what can you learn from it, then attack with everything you have. I used to view challenges as the world telling me I'm not worth anything I dream of. Now I view it as a part of the three pillars I break down for you today. If you begin to view every challenge the way I explain today in this episode, you'll never fail again, because failing demands one thing and that's lost hope with no drive. If you use a challenge as a strengthener, you'll never fail.

Weight loss is the number one goal people want to achieve. This makes sense because America has the highest obesity and diabetes ratings in the entire world. Why is that? Well we're the least educated, we have the most luxury/conviency, and we have thousands of influencers preaching the "Perfect method" when in reality, THERE IS NONE! It's about what you can sustain and maintain.
