Top Reasons Why Your Fitness Goals Didn't Happen in 2022

This episode covers the reasons why your fitness goals didn't happen in 2022.
Most of the time, it has to do with the goals your setting. Maybe your goals weren't realistic and sustainable. Maybe you paid too close attention to random influencers you saw on social media. This time around, let's focus on continuing to make progress and redefine the word success. If you're making progress and moving in the right direction, you're successful!
Rod explained his theory of "quarter plus time." He says women should aim to be their slimmest that they've ever been as an adult. For most women, this was around age 30, probably before having babies. Teenage years don't count! You also want to choose a time you were feeling your best, and that should be your goal! Whether it's 5 pounds or 60 pounds, it doesn't matter. In this example, he says to focus on your first ten pounds and however long it takes you to lose that, see if you can maintain that for just as long. This is a sustainable way and a slow enough pace that you can get results and never revert back.
Even if you never reach you goal, but you got a quarter of a way or halfway there and never gained it back, you are successful!
If two ships leave port and change their trajectory by a degree or two, they'll be thousands of miles apart over time.
Brain health, bone health, aesthetics, feeling better, being a better person overall... these are some of the reasons why women stick with their fitness goals and don't give up.
If everything in your plan is sustainable and realistic enough (your cardio, your lifting, your eating), you're going to feel successful as you make progress. Instead of thinking about getting to your end goal, if you're on the right track, you are already successful! Success is a cumulative effect. If you just strive for success, you WILL get there over time.
Many women strive for too much, too soon which leads to getting discouraged. Just keep striving forward and never backward.
As Rod says, don't try to pick up on everything we're saying. Just focus on the low hanging fruit. Pick one or two or three tips that are realistic. Pick the things you can see yourself doing daily for the rest of your life. Don't overwhelm yourself and take on too much. This is especially a problem with women! We think we can do it all, but this backfires when it comes to your fitness. Only try to do what's realistic long term.
If you've been following us, you understand the EMERGENCY of needing to train with weights.
Figure out how much weight you have to lose. I suggest half to 1% of body weight per week. Even if its gonna take you more than a year, so be it! You're gonna be a new person!
Don't forget: Small things add up to big results over the course of time.
