If clients are interested, I will suggest some proven options for fat loss.
\nEven if they say they are interested they often have tons of excuses why
\nthey can’t do squats, dead-lifts or resistance training and why they would never
\ndo high intensity interval training. They tell me that eating too much protein is
\nbad for people and that high quality food is too expensive.\u00a0 They believe that
\nboxed cereal is a healthy choice because the cereal is fortified with nutrients.
\nMany of these clients tell me that because fish oil is fat, it should be avoided.
\nThey contend that the leg press machine is better than split squats because
\nthe knee never travels past the toes and that since the cardio class they do with
\ntheir girlfriend helped them drop five pounds, doing it twice a week should help
\nthem drop 10. It goes on and on.<\/p>\n

What I find very surprising about this attitude is the high level of buy-in the client demonstrates. \u00a0It doesn’t matter that I look exactly how they want to look, they JUST KNOW that what they are doing is going to be effective REGARDLESS of how little impact it is having on their body. Evidence doesn’t enter into the equation when faced with overwhelming emotional commitment \u2013 the feeling that it will work.<\/p>\n

I understand there is a lot of psychology involved in all of this, and that these people who desire to change their body composition have, at some level, an emotional issue or two that led them to their larger self in first place. But, the fact that they hold on to their issues during their efforts to change their body composition is regrettable and it is wasting a lot of their time. Let\u2019s face it, someone who has 50 pounds of fat to lose is very good at one thing, gaining fat and they aren’t very good at the opposite thing, getting rid of fat. But they can’t grasp this obvious relationship. However, \u00a0if they could, they would end up in a much better place.<\/p>\n

The hard, fast truth about improving body composition is that you need an expert to help you do it. \u00a0If you are going to the gym and you are not trained by an expert, it’s time to fire your coach and hire an expert. SST’s individualized programs or the Satellite Program may be exactly what you need. Give SST a call and find out how we can help you!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
