862: How to Get In Shape For Life When You're Busy Without Giving Up Your Life
DM “challenge” to join in on our 21 day challenge (just about a week out from beginning)
- DM me “presentation” and i’ll send you a full guide on what I did for this presentation.
Summary of episode:
(0:00) - Intro
1- Reduce friction
Goal is to make the "good" things easier to do, and "bad" things harder to do
Examples:
Keep healthy snacks visible
Pre-pack meals for the week
Lay out workout clothes the night before
Workout with someone
Limit unhealthy temptations
Batch your tasks
Set reminders
2- Utilize the freedom formula
Prioritize protein & veggies
Portion awareness, not perfection
Plan indulgences, no guilt
People don't realize they can still enjoy their favourite
Foods and get killer results
3- Turn it into a lifestyle w/ the right habits
Schedule workouts like meetings
Don't miss twice
Light switch example that's kept me consistent 12+ years
4- Walk more than you think
Steps = underrated health tool
Park further
Pace when possible (gym example)
Take walking meetings
Break walks into shorter ones
5- Strength train efficiently
Understand it's actual importance
Focus on compound moves
Create a system that ACTUALLY works for you
Follow a routine
6- Get some REAL accountability
Challenges with coworkers or friends
Hire a coach/trainer
Workout with a friend or coach
Get your spouse on board
Weekly check-ins keep you on track
A bet to give $ to someone if goal is failed(real stakes)
7- Find your deep why
Write it down & remind yourself
Motivation that survives busy days
Insanely important for the tougher days
Thanks for listening! We genuinely appreciate every single one of you listening.
