1 00:00:00,840 --> 00:00:05,920 Speaker 1: Welcome to Fitness Disrupted, a production of I Heart Radio. 2 00:00:11,840 --> 00:00:18,320 Speaker 1: I am Tom Holland, and this is Fitness Disrupted. When 3 00:00:18,360 --> 00:00:24,239 Speaker 1: it comes to sports performance, we talk about three types 4 00:00:24,320 --> 00:00:30,600 Speaker 1: of goals to help us achieve our desired outcomes, and 5 00:00:30,680 --> 00:00:38,280 Speaker 1: those three types of goals are process, performance, and outcome. Unfortunately, 6 00:00:38,479 --> 00:00:43,199 Speaker 1: people far too often only set that outcome goal, and 7 00:00:43,280 --> 00:00:50,360 Speaker 1: that's problematic. Now we can and should utilize this same 8 00:00:50,440 --> 00:00:54,680 Speaker 1: type of strategy goal setting strategy to achieve other things, 9 00:00:54,680 --> 00:00:59,160 Speaker 1: including weight loss. And so I have adapted them in 10 00:00:59,240 --> 00:01:02,720 Speaker 1: my own way to help you do that. But first 11 00:01:02,760 --> 00:01:07,000 Speaker 1: let me clarify what they are. Again started with sports 12 00:01:07,040 --> 00:01:12,319 Speaker 1: performance essentially, but we can extrapolate them out. I would argue, 13 00:01:12,520 --> 00:01:15,760 Speaker 1: really well, the way I've done it to help you 14 00:01:15,760 --> 00:01:18,319 Speaker 1: achieve your goals if that goal is weight loss, as 15 00:01:18,319 --> 00:01:22,760 Speaker 1: it is for so many people. And so I'm gonna read, 16 00:01:23,040 --> 00:01:25,960 Speaker 1: you're gonna hear me. Pick up the book, flip through it. 17 00:01:26,040 --> 00:01:31,760 Speaker 1: From my Sports Psychology Concepts and Applications textbook back from 18 00:01:32,280 --> 00:01:34,440 Speaker 1: when I got my masters. This is the fifth edition, 19 00:01:34,480 --> 00:01:39,160 Speaker 1: so it's older. I'm sure there's more sense, but the 20 00:01:39,200 --> 00:01:42,720 Speaker 1: information is is still good, all right, It's it's still 21 00:01:42,880 --> 00:01:46,480 Speaker 1: what it is and I'm just gonna read verbatim real quick. 22 00:01:46,560 --> 00:01:51,400 Speaker 1: Outcome goals, performance and process. So outcome goals focus on 23 00:01:51,520 --> 00:01:55,279 Speaker 1: the outcomes of sporting events and usually involve some sort 24 00:01:55,800 --> 00:02:00,120 Speaker 1: of interpersonal comparison. A typical outcome goal might be to 25 00:02:00,160 --> 00:02:03,120 Speaker 1: win a basketball game, place first in a volleyball tournament, 26 00:02:03,440 --> 00:02:06,240 Speaker 1: defeat an opponent in tennis, or finish the season with 27 00:02:06,280 --> 00:02:08,880 Speaker 1: a winning record. It is very typical for coaches to 28 00:02:08,919 --> 00:02:11,520 Speaker 1: speak in terms of the number of wins they hope 29 00:02:11,560 --> 00:02:15,800 Speaker 1: to have in a particular season. Outcome goals performance goals 30 00:02:16,360 --> 00:02:21,160 Speaker 1: specify an end product of performance that will be achieved 31 00:02:21,160 --> 00:02:26,240 Speaker 1: by the athlete relatively independently of other performers and the team. 32 00:02:26,280 --> 00:02:29,480 Speaker 1: A typical performance goal for an individual athlete might be 33 00:02:29,639 --> 00:02:33,919 Speaker 1: to strike out seven batters, score points in a basketball game, 34 00:02:34,400 --> 00:02:37,960 Speaker 1: serve five aces in a tennis match, or get fifteen 35 00:02:38,080 --> 00:02:42,480 Speaker 1: kills in a volleyball game. Intuitively, athletes and coaches should 36 00:02:42,520 --> 00:02:47,440 Speaker 1: prefer performance goals to outcome goals for two fundamental reasons. First, 37 00:02:47,760 --> 00:02:51,960 Speaker 1: if performance goals are accomplished, there's a good possibility that 38 00:02:52,080 --> 00:02:57,400 Speaker 1: outcome goals will also be accomplished. Second, personal satisfaction can 39 00:02:57,480 --> 00:03:02,160 Speaker 1: be realized from the achievement of performance goals even if 40 00:03:03,360 --> 00:03:08,480 Speaker 1: the outcome goals remain unfulfilled. Really important? Okay, and that 41 00:03:08,560 --> 00:03:11,680 Speaker 1: applies to exercise and weight loss. Let me say it 42 00:03:11,720 --> 00:03:15,800 Speaker 1: one more time. Personal satisfaction can be realized from the 43 00:03:15,840 --> 00:03:19,440 Speaker 1: achievement of performance goals, even if and I would say 44 00:03:20,520 --> 00:03:23,200 Speaker 1: not yet, you know, if the outcome goals haven't yet 45 00:03:23,280 --> 00:03:27,760 Speaker 1: been achieved when it's weight loss remain unfulfilled. And finally, 46 00:03:28,200 --> 00:03:34,119 Speaker 1: process goals focus on specific behaviors exhibited throughout a performance. 47 00:03:34,200 --> 00:03:37,000 Speaker 1: So important when it comes to weight loss and a 48 00:03:37,400 --> 00:03:40,880 Speaker 1: exercise and a wellness plan. Right, and our performance is 49 00:03:40,920 --> 00:03:46,600 Speaker 1: the plan. Right focus on specific behaviors exhibited throughout a performance. 50 00:03:46,640 --> 00:03:51,040 Speaker 1: For a weight loss goal, the performance is the time frame. 51 00:03:52,160 --> 00:03:54,760 Speaker 1: A typical process goal for an athlete might be to 52 00:03:54,880 --> 00:03:58,160 Speaker 1: keep the left elbow straight while executing a golf drive, 53 00:03:58,440 --> 00:04:00,560 Speaker 1: to keep the elbow down and risk firm in the 54 00:04:00,600 --> 00:04:04,240 Speaker 1: tennis back hand, or to focus on the spiker and 55 00:04:04,320 --> 00:04:07,920 Speaker 1: not the ball in volleyball blocking. Each of these behaviors 56 00:04:07,960 --> 00:04:13,880 Speaker 1: reflects proper and effective technique for executing a specific athletic task. 57 00:04:14,600 --> 00:04:17,720 Speaker 1: If the athlete is successful in setting and meeting process goals, 58 00:04:18,040 --> 00:04:22,000 Speaker 1: improved performance and outcome goal should be the result. All right, 59 00:04:22,080 --> 00:04:24,600 Speaker 1: putting the book away, do you understand the connection? Now, 60 00:04:25,400 --> 00:04:28,320 Speaker 1: what's the difference in the three goals. The main difference 61 00:04:28,640 --> 00:04:32,520 Speaker 1: is how much control we have over them. We have 62 00:04:33,120 --> 00:04:37,680 Speaker 1: much more control, almost total control over the process goals, 63 00:04:38,520 --> 00:04:42,760 Speaker 1: a little less over performance, and significantly less over the 64 00:04:42,800 --> 00:04:45,159 Speaker 1: outcome goals. Let me give you one more quick example 65 00:04:45,200 --> 00:04:46,800 Speaker 1: to clarify it, and then I'm going to break it 66 00:04:46,839 --> 00:04:50,080 Speaker 1: down for weight loss. Okay, if you're a runner, right 67 00:04:50,480 --> 00:04:54,520 Speaker 1: and your goal is to run a sub for our marathon, 68 00:04:54,960 --> 00:04:57,480 Speaker 1: that's your outcome goal, the end result. I want to 69 00:04:57,560 --> 00:05:03,520 Speaker 1: run a marathon under four hours, all right. Now, your 70 00:05:03,680 --> 00:05:07,000 Speaker 1: performance goals would be things that are going to be 71 00:05:07,080 --> 00:05:10,800 Speaker 1: measurable and help you achieve that outcome goal. So a 72 00:05:10,839 --> 00:05:14,760 Speaker 1: performance goal might be to run a marathon in an 73 00:05:14,760 --> 00:05:17,560 Speaker 1: hour and fifty minutes. You know there is math that 74 00:05:17,680 --> 00:05:20,720 Speaker 1: you double your half marathon time add ten or fifteen 75 00:05:20,720 --> 00:05:23,680 Speaker 1: minutes should roughly be around there, and their charts you 76 00:05:23,720 --> 00:05:25,960 Speaker 1: can use as well. You could have a specific five 77 00:05:26,080 --> 00:05:30,520 Speaker 1: k time as well ten K time, things like that. Now, 78 00:05:30,520 --> 00:05:35,760 Speaker 1: the process goals are improving your performance, so these are 79 00:05:35,800 --> 00:05:39,880 Speaker 1: things like run with a higher cadence you know, increased 80 00:05:39,960 --> 00:05:44,640 Speaker 1: foot strikes, it may be too, decrease the rotation your 81 00:05:44,760 --> 00:05:52,080 Speaker 1: arms swing, to relax your shoulders. Okay, those are things 82 00:05:52,120 --> 00:05:57,359 Speaker 1: that you can't really fail at doing. To improve how 83 00:05:57,480 --> 00:06:02,880 Speaker 1: you run is going to improve your performance goals and 84 00:06:04,000 --> 00:06:07,400 Speaker 1: hopefully ultimately your outcome goals. But your outcome goals you 85 00:06:07,440 --> 00:06:13,520 Speaker 1: have so much less control over. It may be degrees 86 00:06:13,680 --> 00:06:16,320 Speaker 1: on race day when you're trying to run that sub four. 87 00:06:17,240 --> 00:06:19,520 Speaker 1: And I've talked about this. I've been there myself and 88 00:06:19,680 --> 00:06:23,480 Speaker 1: pacing clients, and we had to change our outcome goals. 89 00:06:25,040 --> 00:06:28,880 Speaker 1: We don't have to change our process goals. Maybe add 90 00:06:28,920 --> 00:06:31,600 Speaker 1: a few new ones, like you know, stop at every 91 00:06:31,600 --> 00:06:35,880 Speaker 1: aid station and ice down a bandanna and hold onto that, 92 00:06:35,880 --> 00:06:37,359 Speaker 1: put it around your neck and things like that, but 93 00:06:37,360 --> 00:06:40,000 Speaker 1: it's still going to remain the same higher cadence, less 94 00:06:40,080 --> 00:06:45,480 Speaker 1: arms swing, and so process goals, performance goals. Outcome goals 95 00:06:45,520 --> 00:06:49,839 Speaker 1: are so important not just to sports performance, but again 96 00:06:50,200 --> 00:06:55,359 Speaker 1: we can adapt them for weight loss and forgetting healthier. 97 00:06:56,800 --> 00:07:01,359 Speaker 1: All right, So I've adapted kind of simplified um. And actually, 98 00:07:01,360 --> 00:07:03,600 Speaker 1: if you look at a bunch of the articles on 99 00:07:04,560 --> 00:07:07,680 Speaker 1: these three types of goals, I would argue process goals 100 00:07:07,680 --> 00:07:11,400 Speaker 1: and performance goals they get kind of muddied for obvious reasons, 101 00:07:11,600 --> 00:07:14,320 Speaker 1: and so I'm just going to simplify them out for 102 00:07:14,520 --> 00:07:17,560 Speaker 1: your goal of weight loss. And so when it comes 103 00:07:17,560 --> 00:07:20,880 Speaker 1: to weight loss, we've got an exercise component, yes, and 104 00:07:20,920 --> 00:07:26,880 Speaker 1: we have a nutrition component. You need both. You need both, 105 00:07:27,640 --> 00:07:32,800 Speaker 1: all right. So I'm doing it like this, process goals 106 00:07:34,120 --> 00:07:40,280 Speaker 1: for our purposes, our first steps. Performance goals are the 107 00:07:40,360 --> 00:07:45,960 Speaker 1: strategy and the habits you're going to adopt, and the 108 00:07:46,000 --> 00:07:50,240 Speaker 1: outcome goals are the desired results. And you can literally 109 00:07:50,440 --> 00:07:55,800 Speaker 1: and should make a chart three columns process, performance outcome. 110 00:07:56,080 --> 00:08:00,080 Speaker 1: All right, So what are examples? Well, process goals for 111 00:08:00,400 --> 00:08:06,280 Speaker 1: your nutrition your diet plan, bring food to work, prepare 112 00:08:06,360 --> 00:08:11,240 Speaker 1: food ahead of time, Maybe join something like weight Watchers, 113 00:08:11,240 --> 00:08:14,680 Speaker 1: a group, some kind of support group. Maybe it's to 114 00:08:14,760 --> 00:08:17,480 Speaker 1: sign up for home food delivery system for a certain 115 00:08:17,520 --> 00:08:22,640 Speaker 1: amount of time. Maybe you're gonna buy some cookbooks to 116 00:08:22,760 --> 00:08:27,200 Speaker 1: help you prepare the foods you need. Maybe you see 117 00:08:27,200 --> 00:08:31,400 Speaker 1: a nutritionist, get started that way, sit down, figure out 118 00:08:31,400 --> 00:08:36,800 Speaker 1: certain things. Right. The performance goals for your nutrition plan 119 00:08:36,920 --> 00:08:42,000 Speaker 1: are things such as lose one to two pounds per week, 120 00:08:43,320 --> 00:08:45,880 Speaker 1: eat a certain number of meals per day. If that's 121 00:08:45,880 --> 00:08:48,079 Speaker 1: going to be your strategy. It's when I've used eat 122 00:08:48,960 --> 00:08:53,000 Speaker 1: five to six medium sized meals a day. Maybe it's 123 00:08:53,040 --> 00:08:55,559 Speaker 1: to eat every three hours, which would tie into that 124 00:08:56,000 --> 00:09:01,280 Speaker 1: five to six meals per day. Things like I've talked 125 00:09:01,280 --> 00:09:04,360 Speaker 1: about in prior podcasts. Eat a certain number of grams 126 00:09:04,360 --> 00:09:07,600 Speaker 1: of protein per day. Write about half your body weight 127 00:09:07,600 --> 00:09:12,800 Speaker 1: plus or minds in grams. Maybe drink a certain amount 128 00:09:12,800 --> 00:09:16,640 Speaker 1: of water per day, same formula, roughly half your body 129 00:09:16,679 --> 00:09:21,839 Speaker 1: weight in ounces per day plus or minus. And maybe 130 00:09:21,840 --> 00:09:25,920 Speaker 1: it's things like eat breakfast every day, eat a salad 131 00:09:25,960 --> 00:09:29,880 Speaker 1: for lunch every day, one salad at least, try to 132 00:09:29,920 --> 00:09:35,360 Speaker 1: do that. Now you see how you're process goals. They're 133 00:09:35,360 --> 00:09:39,600 Speaker 1: gonna get you started. Your performance goals are the habits, 134 00:09:39,880 --> 00:09:44,680 Speaker 1: the behaviors, and then the outcome goals are, yes, lose 135 00:09:44,800 --> 00:09:48,680 Speaker 1: x number of pounds, but I want you to throw 136 00:09:48,679 --> 00:09:51,679 Speaker 1: in those other ones I've talked about. Attain a certain 137 00:09:51,800 --> 00:09:56,800 Speaker 1: body fat percentage, maybe lower your blood pressure, maybe lower 138 00:09:56,840 --> 00:10:03,160 Speaker 1: your triglyceriides, maybe get off certain medications. Those are outcome 139 00:10:03,200 --> 00:10:07,160 Speaker 1: goals as well. But now you see how you can 140 00:10:07,400 --> 00:10:10,840 Speaker 1: create those three columns and should What are you going 141 00:10:10,920 --> 00:10:15,520 Speaker 1: to do? What are those first steps and then what 142 00:10:15,600 --> 00:10:21,439 Speaker 1: are those measurable performance goals one to two pounds a 143 00:10:21,480 --> 00:10:29,520 Speaker 1: week towards your larger weight loss goal. All right, When 144 00:10:29,559 --> 00:10:33,520 Speaker 1: you put those process goals into play, when you put 145 00:10:33,600 --> 00:10:41,880 Speaker 1: the performance goals into play consistently, you can't not make 146 00:10:42,440 --> 00:10:46,000 Speaker 1: changes to your outcome goals. You can't not hit them 147 00:10:46,040 --> 00:10:49,040 Speaker 1: if you do it, if you set those outcome goals correctly, 148 00:10:49,400 --> 00:10:53,720 Speaker 1: and if you do your performance goals consistently. All right, 149 00:10:53,760 --> 00:10:58,480 Speaker 1: And then finally with the exercise component process goals, first steps, 150 00:10:58,520 --> 00:11:01,400 Speaker 1: what would those be? Buys some exercise equipment, maybe for 151 00:11:01,440 --> 00:11:07,240 Speaker 1: the house, maybe by a fitness tracker. Maybe join a gym, 152 00:11:07,240 --> 00:11:11,240 Speaker 1: maybe join a walking club or running club. Again, community, 153 00:11:11,800 --> 00:11:14,280 Speaker 1: just like weight watchers type thing. If that's something that 154 00:11:14,320 --> 00:11:18,160 Speaker 1: works for you or you're interested in there's power in community. 155 00:11:18,600 --> 00:11:21,280 Speaker 1: Maybe like a nutritionist. Maybe you hire a personal trainer 156 00:11:21,559 --> 00:11:25,360 Speaker 1: for a certain number of sessions, subscribe to this show. 157 00:11:25,520 --> 00:11:29,839 Speaker 1: That is a phenomenal first step. And maybe you sign 158 00:11:29,920 --> 00:11:33,000 Speaker 1: up for a charity event. They could also be your 159 00:11:33,000 --> 00:11:38,480 Speaker 1: outcome goal walk of five k, bike, a hundred k, 160 00:11:38,720 --> 00:11:44,320 Speaker 1: or a fifty k, some athletic themed event with a 161 00:11:44,400 --> 00:11:48,960 Speaker 1: charity components so powerful as an outcome goal, what are 162 00:11:48,960 --> 00:11:53,199 Speaker 1: the performance goals so straightforward, you're going to exercise a 163 00:11:53,200 --> 00:11:55,080 Speaker 1: certain number of times per week. One of the most 164 00:11:55,080 --> 00:11:59,120 Speaker 1: powerful performance goals when you're trying to get healthy and 165 00:11:59,160 --> 00:12:02,640 Speaker 1: lose weight, and you could break it down even further, 166 00:12:02,679 --> 00:12:05,480 Speaker 1: get a certain number of minutes of cardio per week, 167 00:12:06,360 --> 00:12:10,280 Speaker 1: per week, and in my book Beat the Gym, I 168 00:12:10,400 --> 00:12:12,240 Speaker 1: give you a number. I say, you know what make 169 00:12:12,320 --> 00:12:16,800 Speaker 1: it to start. I know that we have certain guidelines 170 00:12:16,840 --> 00:12:23,680 Speaker 1: that are given by different governmental organizations. But let's say 171 00:12:23,720 --> 00:12:27,240 Speaker 1: your body weight in minutes, if you're two hundred pounds 172 00:12:27,240 --> 00:12:29,240 Speaker 1: two undred minutes, if your hundred fifty pounds, hundred and 173 00:12:29,240 --> 00:12:31,760 Speaker 1: fifty minutes of cardio. Anyway, you want to break it 174 00:12:31,840 --> 00:12:34,559 Speaker 1: up twenty minutes one day, thirty minutes the next, an 175 00:12:34,600 --> 00:12:38,959 Speaker 1: hour the next, and as you lose weight, you can 176 00:12:39,000 --> 00:12:40,960 Speaker 1: pull back on the cardio a little bit and maybe 177 00:12:41,000 --> 00:12:43,000 Speaker 1: spend more time strength training. Great way to do it. 178 00:12:43,360 --> 00:12:47,200 Speaker 1: A couple other performance goals. Walk more total steps each week, 179 00:12:48,960 --> 00:12:51,720 Speaker 1: and instead of saying you're gonna hit ten thousand a day, 180 00:12:51,880 --> 00:12:54,360 Speaker 1: as I said in a prior podcast, how about a 181 00:12:54,400 --> 00:12:59,440 Speaker 1: couple of hundred steps more per day and you try 182 00:12:59,679 --> 00:13:01,560 Speaker 1: some as you won't do it and this is a 183 00:13:01,600 --> 00:13:05,440 Speaker 1: good way to take that whole week into account. See 184 00:13:05,440 --> 00:13:07,679 Speaker 1: what you do, See what your average is. Right now, 185 00:13:07,760 --> 00:13:11,320 Speaker 1: how many steps are you walking per day? And if 186 00:13:11,360 --> 00:13:14,760 Speaker 1: you're now walking to three thousand, well then let's do 187 00:13:14,840 --> 00:13:20,400 Speaker 1: that math three thousand times seven thousand steps per week. 188 00:13:21,640 --> 00:13:25,760 Speaker 1: Let's say we're gonna hit three thousand or twenty four thousand, 189 00:13:26,280 --> 00:13:31,640 Speaker 1: and start breaking it up that way, incremental changes over time. Okay, 190 00:13:32,040 --> 00:13:36,280 Speaker 1: another great performance goal for your exercise. We'll throw it in. 191 00:13:36,480 --> 00:13:41,320 Speaker 1: Listen to the show three times per week. Every show 192 00:13:41,400 --> 00:13:44,120 Speaker 1: I do three a week. It's another great goal. It's 193 00:13:44,160 --> 00:13:46,320 Speaker 1: gonna help you towards your goal. You're gonna get some 194 00:13:46,320 --> 00:13:49,080 Speaker 1: great information, great tips that you can put into play 195 00:13:49,200 --> 00:13:53,360 Speaker 1: right away. All right, what are the outcome goals? Yes, 196 00:13:54,640 --> 00:13:58,240 Speaker 1: weight loss is there, but it's not that's more on 197 00:13:58,280 --> 00:14:02,920 Speaker 1: your diet side connected. But for your outcome goals, I 198 00:14:03,000 --> 00:14:06,360 Speaker 1: want things like do ten pull ups if that's something 199 00:14:06,400 --> 00:14:09,480 Speaker 1: you've always wanted to do. Do a sixty second plank 200 00:14:09,520 --> 00:14:11,720 Speaker 1: if you have if you can't hold a plank for 201 00:14:11,760 --> 00:14:15,160 Speaker 1: a minute, and that's super challenging. Maybe it is to 202 00:14:15,240 --> 00:14:17,719 Speaker 1: run a marathon or a half marathon. Maybe it's to 203 00:14:17,960 --> 00:14:20,480 Speaker 1: run your first five k, or walk your first five k, 204 00:14:21,040 --> 00:14:24,560 Speaker 1: or do thirty push ups, or do that hundred k 205 00:14:24,880 --> 00:14:27,880 Speaker 1: bike ride for charity. Or maybe it's to swim a 206 00:14:27,960 --> 00:14:34,080 Speaker 1: mile NonStop or one lap of the pool NonStop. Make 207 00:14:34,200 --> 00:14:39,280 Speaker 1: a chart with these three columns, process, performance, outcome. Again, 208 00:14:39,320 --> 00:14:42,160 Speaker 1: I'm loosely adapting them, but you understand what I'm getting 209 00:14:42,160 --> 00:14:47,760 Speaker 1: at here. First steps, then behavior change, and then the 210 00:14:47,800 --> 00:14:51,080 Speaker 1: outcome goals. And those outcome goals for exercise. I want 211 00:14:51,120 --> 00:14:55,800 Speaker 1: those the ultimate It's actually a you could throw it 212 00:14:55,840 --> 00:14:58,680 Speaker 1: as a fourth type of category for the weight loss, 213 00:15:00,160 --> 00:15:05,840 Speaker 1: But the outcome goals for exercise is not the weight 214 00:15:05,880 --> 00:15:08,840 Speaker 1: loss per se. It will come, I promise if you 215 00:15:08,960 --> 00:15:12,040 Speaker 1: do all of these things. This is what I did 216 00:15:12,080 --> 00:15:15,000 Speaker 1: with my clients, all of my clients when I was 217 00:15:15,040 --> 00:15:21,160 Speaker 1: a trainer years ago. We did these three types of columns. 218 00:15:21,160 --> 00:15:25,240 Speaker 1: But that third column for exercises so important, and that's 219 00:15:25,240 --> 00:15:29,280 Speaker 1: what we would break down. What did they want to do, Oh, 220 00:15:29,520 --> 00:15:33,440 Speaker 1: ten chin ups or ten pull ups. And as you 221 00:15:33,520 --> 00:15:37,600 Speaker 1: work towards those outcome goals with exercise and with nutrition 222 00:15:37,640 --> 00:15:41,400 Speaker 1: your diet plan, when you start to implement those over time, 223 00:15:41,640 --> 00:15:43,680 Speaker 1: and you have something to shoot for and to measure 224 00:15:45,400 --> 00:15:48,240 Speaker 1: and that doesn't change your life drastically, and it's actually 225 00:15:48,360 --> 00:15:51,680 Speaker 1: fun and motivating because all of a sudden you go, oh, 226 00:15:51,720 --> 00:15:55,480 Speaker 1: you know what I can do to chin ups this week? 227 00:15:56,640 --> 00:16:00,560 Speaker 1: Three weeks ago, I couldn't do half a one, or 228 00:16:00,640 --> 00:16:05,800 Speaker 1: I am hitting three workouts per week. I am hitting 229 00:16:05,840 --> 00:16:10,000 Speaker 1: my protein intake per day. And it will never be perfect, 230 00:16:10,640 --> 00:16:14,000 Speaker 1: but you don't need perfect to see results. And so 231 00:16:14,120 --> 00:16:16,520 Speaker 1: this is what a coach would do for you. This 232 00:16:16,560 --> 00:16:18,640 Speaker 1: is what a great coach would do. Sit down, break 233 00:16:18,640 --> 00:16:22,360 Speaker 1: it down, give you a plan that you can follow, 234 00:16:22,400 --> 00:16:25,160 Speaker 1: that you can measure that does work for you. That's 235 00:16:25,160 --> 00:16:28,880 Speaker 1: why I give you so many different options. But this 236 00:16:29,000 --> 00:16:35,520 Speaker 1: is how you do it. And it's not torture, it's 237 00:16:35,640 --> 00:16:39,920 Speaker 1: not deprivation, and it's not focusing on what you're not doing. 238 00:16:39,960 --> 00:16:42,360 Speaker 1: Did you notice that there's nowhere in here I talked 239 00:16:42,360 --> 00:16:45,720 Speaker 1: about cutting things out or doing something you don't want 240 00:16:45,760 --> 00:16:49,560 Speaker 1: to do. No, it's focusing on achieving things, building that 241 00:16:49,600 --> 00:16:53,880 Speaker 1: self efficacy over time, eating enough protein, drinking enough water. 242 00:16:54,640 --> 00:16:56,400 Speaker 1: We hear it all the time, you read it all 243 00:16:56,440 --> 00:16:58,840 Speaker 1: the time, but you need to put it into a 244 00:16:58,880 --> 00:17:01,880 Speaker 1: plan for you. And you don't have to do and 245 00:17:01,880 --> 00:17:05,920 Speaker 1: shouldn't do all of these things at once. That's how 246 00:17:06,480 --> 00:17:08,400 Speaker 1: you fall off, is when you try to do too 247 00:17:08,480 --> 00:17:11,879 Speaker 1: much at once. But these things all complement one another. 248 00:17:12,760 --> 00:17:15,640 Speaker 1: Getting the protein, in getting getting the water, in doing 249 00:17:15,640 --> 00:17:19,400 Speaker 1: a certain number of workouts per week, measuring your progress 250 00:17:19,440 --> 00:17:22,560 Speaker 1: each week with the one to two pounds maybe of 251 00:17:22,600 --> 00:17:24,199 Speaker 1: weight loss. And that is the number of people for 252 00:17:24,280 --> 00:17:28,560 Speaker 1: most people, one to two pounds per week, fifty to 253 00:17:28,680 --> 00:17:32,760 Speaker 1: a hundred pounds a year. And I am not just 254 00:17:32,800 --> 00:17:35,080 Speaker 1: all about weight loss, as you know if you've listened 255 00:17:35,119 --> 00:17:38,879 Speaker 1: to just a handful of my shows already.
