#118. This is where 97% of people push-up against resistance and fall short of their goals. Jul 08, 2021

Show notes

Success mindset. This is the mindset that you need to have to achieve what you want to achieve in life. ..... 1. Know who you want to be and how you want to actually feel. 2. Realise that you need to actually become someone new to achieve your goals because way too often we stay stuck in our comfort zone. 3. This is actually where 97% of people push-up against resistance because they stop before they push through. ... our minds is malleable and we can rewire it to form a new identity and a new belief system 4. I want that but I have no idea how I'm going to achieve that so I need to mould this person this character so that not only do I believe but I can now put in the tools and strategies to achieve.

#117 When you understand your triggers, you have the power to change ANYTHING- w/ Stephen Dallas - setting the precedence for SUCCESS Jul 01, 2021

Show notes

You are stuck in a cycle? You feel overwhelmed by the process? Impatient for the results?
Wondering if what you are doing is right? Wondering why nothing sticks? Why you lose motivation and drive? Why you are struggling along the way?
Why it feels like you are trying all the things but still not getting anywhere?
"YOUR BIGGEST HURDLE TODAY, IS THE STORY YOU KEEP TELLING YOURSELF - AND TOMORROW? IT WILL BE YOUR BELIEF IN THAT STORY THAT IS HOLDING YOU BACK!"
How you think about yourself and the environment around you is a big predicator of your outcomes!
Your thoughts & how you FEEL about yourself IMPACTS YOUR BEHAVIOURS which not only SHAPE your identity – but take you closer or further away from your dreams, goals and desires.
If your internal beliefs don't line up with your actions and what you WANT - there will always be a "helpless" feel of struggle.
its like a child learning to walk. first you must learn to crawl, fall, crawl, fall - walk, crawl, fall, until you can walk. and then you can run before you fall and get back up again.
but once you can do that, you can then go onto other things like climbing a couch, digging into the playdough and sticking your hand in a fish tank.
You unlocked a new level where you now have to learn what you can and cant do and the process continues - much like how you start off your health and fitness journey.
You can have the "perfect" diet and training, but how can you expect to stick to it if you haven't yet done the "un-sexy" ground work of getting to know these values and beliefs that hold you back?
Of digging into what it is that you need to drive you forward even when shit gets tough!
Because you have to develop the GRIT, you have to stick it through the hard stuff and do uncomfortable things without giving in at the first sign of struggle!!
You need to push through the dip to get to where you want to be - be it if you are heading in the right direction and not something that's going to cost more than its worth in the end.
But you, your LONGTERM HEALTH & FITNESS - you are worth it.
YOU CAN DO HARD THINGS.
You just have to unlearn all the dysfunctional patterns in favour of ones that SERVE YOU & act as a spring board for even more to come - on your journey of becoming your BEST you!
"Dig for the golden nuggets Understanding how and why we do what we do can be as lifechanging as finding nuggets of gold. There is always a DIP. Learn to push past your temporary PAIN or PLEASURE but also understand when the deck isn't in your favour!"

#114 Your priorities determine your outcomes. It's more than just food & macros. With Rob Husk Jun 25, 2021

Show notes

Your priorities determine your outcomes. It's more than just food & macros.

It is CRITICAL that you change your identity if you desire to lose the weight for good.... achieve your dream body for life!

YOUR PRIORITIES determine your results & your outcome so TAKE CONTROL.

Unpopular TRUTH: you can't operate at 100% every day. Your yes has NO VALUE until you learn to say no.

⠀

All out mentality is addicting for a little while until you crash OR other commitments pop up & life happens...

⠀

WHEN THAT HAPPENS...knowing what your non-negotiables are can make or break you –

MOMENTUM is key.

MANAGEABLE not perfect.

What if by nailing 3-4 BALANCED meals (focus on lean protein with plenty of plants - veggies/ fruit) you...

✅ improved appetite hormones & DIGESTION

✅ Stopped crazy cravings

✅ Balanced blood sugar ➡️ improve your underlying health & even hormones

✅ FEEL MORE IN CONTROL ➡️ more mental energy for LIFE

✅ Started to FEEL better, perform better, have more CONFIDENCE!

What if by having a sleep routine and prioritizing it + getting sunlight in the AM, you…

✅ Wake up more refreshed and motivated for the day

✅ Increase your performance in the gym & life

✅ Improve your gut health & hormones

✅Improve your mood & SHOW UP BETTER FOR YOUR LOVED ONES

✅ Stop demolishing your pantry at night

✅ Handle stress more easily!!!

Can’t lose weight?

There’s nothing wrong with YOU.

it is your APPROACH -

You need to change your approach, And the best change is to stop focusing so much on the food, stop focusing on the diet and start focusing on WHY it is that you eat the way you do and learning how to keep yourself focused and driven for the long-term.

p.s.

STAY ACTIVE, stay hydrated, and START WITH WHERE YOU ARE AT.

KNOW thyself & stop trying to fit in with the rest of the crowd or compare your journey to theirs.

#113 The BEST training, program or exercise?? The main thing missing in the fitness industry NUANCE - Geoff Futch Jun 25, 2021

Show notes

Everyone thinks that every question needs to have one answer.

Everyone acts as though everything needs a specific solution or answer. but there is so much context and nuance to every situation in every moment of time for any individual.

it feels good to have the answer.

it feels good to talk about the best thing and have it go viral.

but the one thing missing is the art of listening, understanding, AND ASKING MORE QUESTIONS.

stop looking for formulas and answers. the problem is everyone wants to have the perfect exercise for every possible scenario.

PRINCIPLES MATTER. YOU CANT create a formula for something as complicated as a human being. There are just too many variables involved.

e.g. If I make a video about an exercise, it’s not just “THIS is the best exercise for GLUTES !!!”

you need to take into account: injury considerations, comparisons to other movements, individual biomechanical concerns, benefits, drawbacks as well as details on how to program it for yourself — or how not to.... the list goes on.

just like “Why the Keto Diet is the BEST Diet” will just do better with an audience in terms of click-through and hits VS “The Keto Diet/ ower carb approach may be beneficial for some populations but is generally unnecessarily restrictive and tends to have a high drop-out and relapse rate."

People want a simple answer. WHICH exercise. WHICH diet. WHO to follow. WHO to trust. WHAT to buy. They don’t want to think about WHY, and that is why most people are so damn easy to manipulate.

I WANT IT FAST AND I WANT IT NOW.

Most people DONT even read long text or vids as it doesn’t have “the answer”.

#112 If you cant trust the process, dont expect the progress - with Danny Matranga Jun 23, 2021

Show notes

Of course, you get discouraged when you don’t think you are making progress toward your goals.
How can you stick to something if you aren’t getting out of it what you want?⁣

⁣We live in a world where we are CONDITIONED to want things faster.

It is a shift in your perspective girlfriend
STOP THINKING SO MYOPICALLY and in the immediate gratification and start to look to the fact that you have A LIFE filled with other things that actually hold VALUE - like kids, work, social life, hobbies, relationships, the list goes on.

you need to make it MANAGEABLE - NOT PERFECT. ⁣

HOW can it be progress, not perfection if it isn't first manageable.

We talk about all things from JUMPING INTO CULTS, EXTREME-ISM, THIS OR THAT MENTALITY,

THE POWER OF WALKING

⁣WHY filling your cup first actually can make you a better mum and partner etc.

and how to apply the easiest of steps to see the biggest reward that COMPOUND over time.

#109 | mini mighty fiesty #6; What lies are you telling yourself?? Jun 18, 2021

Show notes

YOU HAVE TO UNLEARN & LEAVE YOUR OLD SELF behind to be able to move forward.

sometimes we fear facing ourselves so we escape and run away from emotions and sitting with ourselves.

IDENTITY, having responsibility for your OWN behaviours, ideas, and taking on opinions and feedback - and digesting it to take it on board to move a step forward - to review yourself

stop repeating your cycles

how do you perceive yourself?

what is holding you back?

be - do - have.

are you ready to break free and discover yourself?
