Train because you want to, not because you have to.

People who struggle to stay consistent have the mindset that they need to workout and eat healthy to get some result.

People who are successful with fitness simply do it for fun.

If you’re struggling with consistency, try adopting this mindset and see how easy it really is.

⁣
When I was 18 I worked at the day care center and front desk at Gold’s Gym in Santa Barbara. I was a scrawny kid, weighing 140 pounds and struggling to see results.⁣
⁣
(Side note, the only way I was able to have long term success is because I didn’t care about results as much as I cared about lifting because it’s fun)⁣
⁣
There was a trainer there, Austin. He was in his mid 20s, had a great physique, good looking guy, friendly with all the members…⁣
⁣
I really looked up to him and wanted to be like him in the next few years.⁣
⁣
We first met when he did my welcome workout (as most gyms offer to new members), and he was always willing to give me his time to answer questions and give advice. ⁣
⁣
He taught me about the importance of nutrition and recovery, helped improve my form, but most importantly, he invested himself in my growth and that gave me inspiration.⁣
⁣
Austin might not even know, but he had a huge impact on my trajectory at that time. It was the first experience I had with a mentor in fitness, and I realized that the fastest way to level up is to have someone who’s further along help you.⁣
⁣
Today, Austin is my assistant coach in the Fit4Life System. My clients love him, he’s awesome to work with and he’s a big reason why our clients get great results.⁣
⁣
Since getting to know Austin in the early days, I’ve sought mentors constantly. I’ve trained with guys who have won Mr. USA, Olympia competitors and elite fitness models, all to learn from them.⁣
⁣
Every time I train with someone like that, I learn something that elevates my own training and improves my skills as a coach.⁣
⁣
A mentor is hands down the BEST way to level up quickly and efficiently. Experience will always trump Google.
