Striving Toward Your Ideal

Are you the best version of yourself? 

If not, answer for yourself: have I done my part?

Here are some considerations to revolve as you strive toward your own personal health and fitness ideal.

Reasonable Goals

Nature does not care about your intentions or platitudes. Nature just is. Our genes determine likely outcomes, but setting goals outside genetic potential is a fast prescription to misery. Be realistic with yourself.

Genes determine our body type in terms of skeletal structure, muscle mass  and girth. You should be objective about this and set goals that are attainable given your true potential. Stop comparing yourself to some roided up lunk or a celeb you worship. These dolts are on drugs, and that's more about the man in the mirror - not health and wellness.

  Nobody needs illicit drugs to become their best. Take a hard look at yourself and those in your family. When you set goals, keep your genetics in mind. If you set your ideal beyond reach, you'll most likely lose motivation and give up.

Hard Work

 This should be a no-brainer, but people are still too daft to get it.

HARD WORK = RESULTS

Duh! 

To become the best version of yourself means you must get off your ass, work hard and smart. That means eating clean, performing both cardio, flexibility and strength training while tracking progress.

Log in your calories and meals as well as your exercise. Weight yourself weekly and track body fat every month. Pick the fattest part of your body and just wrap with a tape measure. 

• Plan
• Act
• Motivate
• Measure

Simple deal, but most  are seeking the easy path through magical supplements or whatever.

SORRY! It's about hard, smart work. And the scammers love the herd, because they're ripe to exploit with diet and fitness shell games that are costly and ineffective.

If you want results, you must set reasonable goals, make a plan, work hard, stay motivated and just keep punching. If you can do this, you're in the 1% of those who reach potential and rise above the herd. It's simple but hard. Just accept that and strive toward your own ideal.

You author your own success or failure in life. Let's join the achievers and become our very best.

ALL IS POSSIBLE!
