A lot of people did the Valentine’s Day thing yesterday in which they gave and received extra attention.
But let me ask you this, is that only time you give or receive extra time, attention, and gifts?
How would/does it make you feel if/when you only got 10 days a year of time and attention?
I’m going to guess that you said it doesn’t.
You have to water your relationship daily and do a little something something every now that’s unexpected.
That’s the exact same way your should treat your fitness and health journey. Water it everyday!
Like getting the proper amount of water, eating lots of fresh vegetables, and protein with every meal. You don’t need me to tell you that, you already know right kiddo.
But then sometimes you have to add that “little something something” like one of our challenges to “spontaneously” push you closer to your goal.
You can’t go full tilt all the time and on the same note you cannot be lax all the time either.
Be consistently good with the basics 80% of the time and allow yourself some indulgences (like Valentine’s day yesterday), and then go 100% for a short period of time, like our 5 week blitz happening now.
Just go back and forth between 6-8 weeks regular (80/20) and 3-6 weeks super focused (100) and you will reach your goal without all of the drama and weight gain of the psychos that go 100% all the time and then fall off a cliff into a vat of chocolaty marshmallowy goodness.
Anyway, just hope you had a great weekend.
