The more things stay the same the less they change


I noticed something the other day while working out. I’ve been going to the same gym for 3 years now and I see the same people everyday on the cardio equipment some of them are really pushing hard and others are reading books or engrossed in a television show not paying attrition to what is going on.
The thing I noticed is Most of these folks look the same as they did three years ago. They are doing the same workouts lifting the same weight or running just as far as they did last week.
In order to make a change we need to progress in our work loads. It needs to be done in a way that makes sense and is in line with our goals. If last week you ran a mile on the treadmill at 3 miles per hour this week something has to be different ether faster or longer. The same goes with weight training, more reps or more weight.
What I love about Beachbody programs is the progression is taken care of for you all you have to do is show up and press play and do your best every day.
