Here's what a lot of people think regarding fitness and results, "To get the best results you have to be super intense, all the time!"

That is daunting and exhausting. People start to think, "No wonder I can’t (lose weight, get stronger, faster, etc.), I don’t have that intensity, therefore I cannot be fit. Why bother starting at all? I can’t commit to 7 days a week 2-3 hour workout sessions everyday."

Adam and Trevor have a cumulative 20+ years of training experience and watching other folks train in the gym with all different kinds of commitment levels, the ones that see the best results are the consistent people.

Getting to your next level of fitness doesn’t always mean giving up any and all free time. Being consistent is FAR more important than going hard during your workouts.

The solution to losing body comp, getting stronger, moving faster, being pain free is to be consistent.

Here's your homework after this pod:
Create a routine for the rest of the week, even if you’re starting mid-week, to get some kind of a workout under your belt.
Reward yourself when you reach milestones, but remember effort first THEN reward.

Success looks like:

Having a CONSISTENT training schedule

Failure looks like:

Having sporadic, intense workouts that get you injured or demotivated

Why Bother Working Out?

Our desire is to help you become the best version of yourself possible both mentally and physically.
This is exactly why Adam and Trevor decided to tackle the question, "Why Bother Working Out?" It's easy to look at your relatives and deduce that they lived to be 70, 80, or 90 something years old and they got around just fine. Shoot, some of them may have even told you a glass of whiskey and a cigar a day keeps the doctor away! You figure, you've probably got those same genes, so why bother working out?
Adam and Trevor dig deep into their 20+ years combined training experience to help bring to light why working out is more than just physical health. Working out will help make all aspects of your life better when you put systems and processes in place to help you succeed.
If you like what these two students of the human body are throwing down, please be sure to share this with everyone you know who could use a push over the proverbial fitness fence.
