Isn\u2019t it strange how the older you get the more indifferent you are to what other folks outside of your circle are doing? To put it bluntly, you couldn\u2019t care less. Obviously I can\u2019t speak for other people, but after a certain point that is exactly what happened to me. The funny thing about it is, this frame of mind translates particularly well when it comes to getting in better shape and all that jazz.<\/p>\n
To give context, when you remove your attachment to subjective measures and superficial outcomes, for whatever reason that\u2019s when the ball starts rolling. It\u2019s as if things start to take off the minute you say, \u201cScrew it. I\u2019ll focus on what I can control and take it day-by-day.\u201d<\/p>\n
It is what it is. Let\u2019s be honest. We\u2019re wired to do more than is actually required. But the truth is, there is no benefit to making fitness more complex. You can feel however you want about a particular diet and type of training. Adding stuff to the table that is of little importance typically does more harm than good. On top of that, advanced strategies won\u2019t do you any good if you don\u2019t ground yourself with the fundamental principles. For instance, if you\u2019re routinely missing meals, not getting in your protein…or worse, sleep deprived\u2014best of luck.<\/p>\n
You can look under every rock, and you\u2019ll continue to find the same answers. In some way, you\u2019re going to have to monitor your food intake. This can be done without having to completely alter how you eat. You may have to down one or two shakes a day just to ensure you\u2019re hitting your protein target. Non-negotiable for improving body composition. And you\u2019re undoubtedly going to experience a few hiccups along the way. This happens to the best of us.<\/p>\n
Point here is: something will suck. It\u2019s not supposed to be a cake walk.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
