Hi,

How do you get consistent fitness?

Maybe a better question is what is consistent fitness? It is fitness that you can easily maintain as a part of your lifestyle.

Now you might think that it could mean that if you are 100 pounds overweight and can hardly get out of the chair to move, that you have consistent fitness.

Well, you would have the consistent part right, but not the fitness part.

If you say someone is physically fit, you do not picture someone that is overweight. You picture someone in good health, that has a good body, that is active and has lots of energy.

That is the definition of consistent fitness.

So how do you get that?

Well, if you listen to most of the marketing hype out there, all you have to do is buy this supplement or use this exercise equipment or do this exercise program or so on and so on.

There is a problem with almost 100% of all the programs out there though. Besides the fact that most of them are downright scams.

And that problem is two fold. The first problem is that they either don’t work at all or they are only temporary.

If you have read this blog for any length of time, you know that all diets are temporary and are designed to fail after a while.

What isn’t as well known is that exercise programs have the same problem.

The second major problem is that it is almost impossible to incorporate these programs into your lifestyle.

So what do you do if you want to improve your fitness levels and only are aware of the BS programs out there?

Well, fortunately, you read this blog.

Here you will learn that the absolute best way to make permanent changes in your fitness levels is to do so gradually.

Reducing your calories by 1000 a day and exercising trying to burn 1000 calories a workout are just crazy.

The problem is that most people will not be able to stick to that kind of routine for long. Let alone incorporate it into a lifetime lifestyle.

And that is the key. Once you decide to change your fitness levels, you want to do this for the rest of your life.

You want it to be something easy and not disruptive of your current life.

It should become a permanent part of your life. Just like brushing your teeth.

When you were a kid, you didn’t want to brush your teeth. Yet, now, as an adult, you do it everyday – usually twice a day.

It is part of your lifestyle. If you could find and incorporate a nutrition program, a health program and a fitness program into your lifestyle – like brushing your teeth – then you have found the answer.

That is what I am working on now. And that is why my posting blogs has become somewhat sporadic.

I don’t have enough time to post 5 days a week and work on the program also.

So I am going to cut down to 2 posts a week for now and spend more time on this program.

I will also keep you updated on my progress on this.

Now there is one more thing you have to do to get consistent fitness. This is the most important thing. Stay tuned for the answer in the next post.

Thanks,

Mike Val
