DO YOU STRUGGLE WITH STAYING CONSISTENT?

Do you struggle with staying consistent with exercise?

Read this post to find out how my client Gavin has exercised 16 times and dropped 22lb since mid October!

I’ve been working with Gavin for the past 2 months. He initially reached out to ask for some guidence as he wanted to start 1-2-1 personal training; but during lockdown we shifted and worked together via my online coaching platform.

Gavin told me he was a “serial exercise starter” but also “giver upper”. He’d start an exercise plan of some kind but give up within a month or so. Often, he would decide to stop because he’d lose motivation (which is incredibly common) but also because he felt he lacked accountability. He had never had someone messaging him to ask where he was, or why he had missed a session, or to tell him why it’s normal, and perfectly ok, to have days where you feel like exercise is the last thing you want to do.

Since starting 1-2-1 personal training at Nakd Fitness Downham Market, Gavin has lost 22lb! Weight loss was always the initial main goal, and he’s delighted with how it’s all going. He’s exercised 16 times since he began his journey and puts his consistency down to having a tailored plan that he’s confident he can do. He’s also gained a lot from knowing he turns up on a Tuesday and Thursday for 1-2-1 training. To him it’s a routine that is tailored to his goals and his diary. His energy has improved and he’s more productive both at home and at work. He also told me he’s now feeling “more positive about his life and mental well being”.

Managing to consistently exercise is one of the main challenges I help people get over. It’s something I and every single other person I know struggles with at times, but there are a few things you can do that’ll make consistent exercise more likely to happen.

If you would like to know what these are, send me a DM with the heading ‘Exercise Consistency’.

Trust the process. Love the journey.
