Let’s expand on this more and talk about the best possible thing you could ever do for progress.
People are always looking to find a way to do the absolute 100% all out most effective optimal thing they can for progress in the shortest amount of time. And what happens? They fall into this “All or Nothing” mentality.
As soon as that individual can’t do every single little detail to perfection they give up. And THIS is the number 1 reason the vast majority of the population never sees long term results.
I don’t care who you are or what you do.. you could be the top athlete in the world where your livelihood revolves around being the best of the best. Even then not every single day is going to be 100%. That’s just the facts of life!
What IS important is doing the best you can in your current situation. Just doing SOMETHING to better yourself. Doing something is ALWAYS better than doing nothing.
You have your entire life to improve.
Try to focus on what’s best for you 5, 10, even 20 years from now… not just today.
You can’t train 5-6 days a week and hit your macros spot on? Life, work, school, etc is overwhelming and you need to back off? That’s fine! Training 2-3x a week is a million times better than not training at all.
You can’t hit your macros or nutrition goals perfectly right now? That’s all good, rather than saying screw it and eating everything in sight, just relatively keep calories in check, focus on protein and minimally processed foods and you will be okay!
Don’t fall into the “I can’t follow my meal plan perfectly, might as well eat all the junk food in the house” situation. This is why I avoid giving clients meal plans. Learning how to structure your eating to fit your life is far more successful long term.
It is about balance. You will always have periods of time where you can be more dialed in. If you can’t do that right now? Who cares? Find an approach that will work for your current situation you enjoy and do the best you can.
Fitness and health doesn’t have to be such an on or off mentality. It’s not all or nothing. Do the best you can in the current situation you have.
Consistent good always beats short term perfect.
This is what I teach my clients, and it’s why they succeed.👌🏼
