The Mind Over Body Matter Letter

I was talking to a friend of mine the other day… he’s actually a part owner of a personal training company and we were talking about the sheer lack of results that people get in their fitness programs.

We got looking at all of the people up on the cardio deck… when I laughed and said, “You know, we could take snapshot of this cardio deck and take another one in 3 months and every single person up here would look the exact same”.

Naturally, he laughed and said, “Yeah, I know… but everyone’s so rapped up in this damn aerobics craze that you really can’t get a word in edge wise… so many times, when we are training clients… we just end up giving them what they want… instead of what they need.”

“Really?”

“Yeah, most of the time… it’s MORE PROFITABLE to just go with the flow… instead of trying to reprogram a lot of the stuff that people are thinking. Nobody wants to feel like they don’t know what they are talking about…”

“WOW… I really had no idea,” I said.

“Now, don’t get me wrong… we eventually try to morph them over to the correct way of thinking… but most of our time… and our CLIENT’S MONEY… is spent on rearranging what our clients think. Sure, they get some results along the way… but if they’d just wipe the slate clean and embrace what we REALLY want to do… we could multiply their efforts by 10.”

Interesting… but there’s more.

I actually read a study the other day about jogging and steady-state cardio that really intrigued me…

It basically said that a group of 50+ year old women ran on a treadmill for 60 mins per day, 5 days per week, over the course of a year.

Do you know what the AVERAGE fat loss reported from the group was?

A stunning 4 pounds!

Anyway, the reason that I’m telling you this is to illustrate the fact that even “the experts” will tell you what you need to hear… just to get in the door and slowly try to reprogram you…

So, why not just jump the gun?

Invest in a program like Turbulence Training… or the Fat Loss Black Book.

They work… period… and in less time than you would expect.

Oh, and back to my conversation with the gentleman that owns the personal training company.

“So what would you say to people that are really trying to get in shape… trying to get ripped…”, I asked.

“Tell them to quit whining and work their asses off… be more aggressive and push yourself like you’ve never pushed yourself before. Naturally, make sure you work your way into it… but in the end… workout like a freakin’ maniac.”
