Up Your Game!

We are definitely into Summer now. There are no more excuses regarding your fitness and nutrition. No more compromises. It is time to up your game. Here are a few ways you can do that:

- Hard Work. Having a goal without doing the necessary hard work to achieve it, is like believing in a dream that will never happen. Fairy godmothers as helpful as they are, don't always appear on demand, so in the meantime you have to make it happen yourself.

- Testing And Tracking. Feel free to test out new equipment at the gym and see if it's worth incorporating it into your regular workout. Track your calories. To lose weight, have a calorie deficit, each and every day, no exceptions.

- Make The Time. You are investing in yourself by making the time to eat healthy and work out regularly. Yes you may have to sacrifice your favorite sweet foods on occasion, but by doing so, that feeling you get when people start to notice how hot you've been looking lately will more than make up for it. That feeling lasts longer too.

- Work your body not your ego. There is no need to compete with anyone except yourself at the gym. We all have different goals and physical capabilities, and have different ways of achieving our own goals.

- Step It Up. Up your resistance on that cross-trainer or try lifting a slightly heavier weight (carefully!).

- Have fun. If you aren't enjoying transforming your body, there's not much point in doing it. Don't place too much pressure on yourself.

Not to pressure you, but what are you waiting for? Up Your Game! - Now.
