The effort to achieve our fitness goals is different to the effort required to keep them. So we need to mentally prepare for life after the goal.

To become a fit and healthy person, we need to do what a fit and healthy person does for long enough, until we believe we are that type of person, even if we’re not by all standard measures.

Short term challenges can set us up for long term failure, unless we see them for what they are - a chance to start and develop new habits.

Shortcuts often work…for a while. And yet the guaranteed process to get results simply requires consistency over a long period of time. This is The Practice we need to commit to.

Unfortunately training for fat loss rarely leads to the intended goal in the long term.
