Don’t Work Out To Burn Calories

Working Out To Burn Calories Doesn't Work.

Working out with the sole aim of burning calories is possibly the least satisfying thing you can do on the planet

There is a difference between “working out” and “training”.

In my mind, training is about building, about getting better and moving towards a positive goal.

It’s fulfilling and rewarding because you truly start to link focussed hard work with improvements in your health, fitness and confidence.

For many, this link has never been made before…

The hard work has been felt, but the link between obvious real and lasting progress has never been forged. Only a yo-yo string that snaps under the pressure of work stress, family commitments and low motivation.

This is because they were “working out” to get sweaty, to pass time, to burn calories.

A Workout is a moment, an isolated idea thrown on a whiteboard to keep you busy for 20-30 minutes.

A Training session is a stimulus, a deliberate part of a plan that will deliver your goals.

Sure, some can succeed with successive workouts strung together over time…but they succeed in-spite of the workouts…not because of them.

Most find that it’s too easy to eat more calories than they burned, get hurt and very quickly lose the motivation to try to make up a new workout every time they go to the gym…so they don’t.

Your best chance of success comes from knowing what you’re doing is valuable and moving you one step closer to your goal.

Only then will your motivation skyrocket and your progress become inevitable.

Training has always been what we do…if you want it to be what you do, you can start with our 6 week challenge.
