The very first question I ask each new client that comes to me is this,
“How long have you been on the same workout program?” With out fail most
if not all say, “Over six months.” Then they do not understand why they
are not progressing.
My name is Greg Ryan. I am a fitness expert, professional bodybuilder
personal, trainer to movie stars, former employee of Kathy Smith and over
50, 000 hours of paid personal training sessions under my belt. For the
last twenty years I have been able to continually make progress, stay
consistent and have some fun in my quest to be in better
shape.
Not because I am anything special, or know some magic formula, but
because I have learned a few goal and program setting techniques that I
would like to share with you. Start incorporating them into your plan
today and notice the difference tomorrow.
The very first question I ask each new client that comes to me is this,
“How long have you been on the same workout program?” With out fail most
if not all say, “Over six months.” Then they do not understand why they
are not progressing.
Rule #1:
Change your routine up every twelve weeks: Your body adapts to exercise
like our bodies adapt to taking antibiotics. For some reason after a
period of time it gets use to the same routine.
Rule #2:
Rest period between twelve week segments: Take a few days off between
the twelve segments refreshes you and allows your body to
recuperate.
Rule #3:
Keep to ball rolling: There is a let down after you have reached your
goal. When you realize that you are going to reach your goal start
thinking of the next one. This keeps the momentum going, and decreases the
chance of having a let down.
Rule #4:
You need a carrot: You need some tangible reward for your efforts.
Something urgent, something you just have to have. Find it and it will
motivate you in the down times.
Rule #5:
Follow an intensity curve: With in the twelve week segment ramp up your
intensity levels in your workouts. Start at eighty percent and by week two
you should be at 100 percent.
Rule #6:
One main goal a year: Set one big goal a year with seasonal ones
leading up to the big one.
Start with these and see how your motivation goes up through out the
year.
