How I overcomplicated getting fit
And what I’m doing now
I did a bunch of group classes and HIIT
They’re fun and good for cardio, but within 3 months, they can stop showing results.
Even with puddles on the floor, fat loss stalls and so does motivation.
So I got smarter and more intentional. Which sped up results and in less time.
More does not equal better.
I went down to 3 days a week in the gym. Doing full body exercises that required heavier weights and plenty of rest time.
I walked out of the gym feeling energized instead of drained. And the results hit quickly.
Keep. It. Simple. Stupid.
50 different exercises crammed into 30-60 minutes may sound productive. But why work so hard when it doesn’t move the needle as much as 3-6 exercises done in 1 hour, only 2-3x a week?
This was a powerful lesson that took me nearly 20 years to learn.
And now I’m sharing that with you.
