I’m in the gym business. I would love to be able to say that exercise is the answer to your weight problems but it rarely is. In fact, I think many people workout too hard. Sure, there are people who don’t get any exercise at all but many gym goers spend way too much time …
Let’s see if you can relate to this little scenario. Let’s say you are on a weight loss journey and you check the scale day after day but it just seems like your success is slower than you want. You think “I work so hard. I feel like all I do is diet and exercise. When will I reap …
“if If I only did things when i felt like it, I wouldn’t do many things that benefited me”. – Pastor Ron, WaterStone Church If you want to succeed with fitness, in relationships, at work and in life, there is one thing you will have to learn to do: Don’t live a life led by emotions. …

In all my years in the fitness …

Committed – 7 Days A Week One of the hardest parts about dieting is sticking to your diet 7 days a week. Anyone can diet for a few days in a row, but to diet over the weekend? That’s a challenge. Don’t erase all your hard work in the gym in one bad day over the …
