Welcome to Motivation Monday, where every Monday we answer all of your questions and have some real talks about life & fitness & get you fired up for the week! In this episode we talk about the creatine side effects, how to bring passion back for training, and become more comfortable at the gym.
Time Stamps:
(0:00) - Intro
(0:40) - Youtube Quote- "In the depths of winter, I finally learned that within me there lay an invincible summer." -Philosopher and author Albert Camus on resilience (Shared by Jeremy)
(1:55) - Josh quote: “Scarcity of self awareness.”
Being self aware, by being honest. Accountability mirror, don’t beat yourself up about it, do something about it. What’s holding you back? You should never have failures, loses are the most powerful lessons.
(3:45) - Kyle quote: “Fail to prepare, prepare to fail”
(5:15) - What has us excited or intrigued
(9:00) - Client shoutout: Past 60 day challenge participants
(12:55) - Question 1- What are the side effects of creatine?
1.a I haven’t been able sleep when taking creatine has anyone else experienced this? Diarrhea and nausea can occur when too much creatine is taken at one time, in which case the doses should be spread out throughout the day and taken with meals. Creatine supplementation typically results in weight gain, partly due to an increase in total body water
1.b - Does creatine cause hairloss? It's plausible, but unlikely. One RCT linked creatine supplementation to an increase in DHT (an androgen involved in hair loss) but this RCT has never been replicated.
1.c - Is creatine bad for your kidneys? In people with healthy kidneys, long-term creatine supplementation is safe, but there are no long-term creatine studies in people with kidney issues. For these people, using a low dose of creatine (if any) would be prudent.
(20:05) - Question 2- Have you done already done a podcast where you give tips on what to do when you’ve lost your passion for training?
(25:05) - Question 3- No matter what I do, I can’t seem to get past the point of feeling uncomfortable in the gym. I feel like people are always either looking at me, or I see people filming, etc and I can’t get past this stage. Any tips or tricks?

482: 4 Honest Reasons You're Failing In Your Fitness Journey & Easy Solutions Apr 06, 2023

Show notes

➢ DM “SUMMER SHRED” for early access to our summer shred may challenge with over $5000 in prizes (5 bonus spots available)

In today’s episode we go over the reasons you’re failing in your fitness journey and provide you actionable solutions to help you break through your limitations.

You always put yourself last

-”“But I don’t have time for myself, I have to take care of my kids, parents, etc.” Sounds familiar? It’s a common societal expectation and gender norm for mothers to place the needs of their children ahead of themselves. But does this mean you need to put yourself last or can’t engage in healthier behaviours? If anything, when you prioritize your own health and wellness, you have more physical and emotional stamina to care for others.” (Muscle and fitness) @‌Andrewcoatesfitness

2. The people around you sabotage you

”People often feel insecure about their appearance and their choices. They feel guilt and shame for their own perceived lack of effort with healthy nutrition and physical activity. When someone around them starts dieting and exercising, it can trigger these feelings. It’s human nature to want to make these unpleasant feelings go way. This means making the shame trigger stop by running interference.”

3. You always “reset” on Monday or wait for summer to start

4. You don’t have much of a game plan & wing it
