HEALTH & BEAUTY | BODY BEAUTIFUL BY ASHLEY SICA 6 Common Fitness Mistakes You are working out right and eating well - but you’re having a hard time really seeing tangible results. Maybe it’s time to take a closer look at your fitness regimen to see where you might be going wrong. Here are 6 common mistakes I see clients making in their fitness journey. 1. BLAMING BETTYS I hear this quite often, “Oh so and so has amazing genetics” or, “I’ll always be this way because I have a slow metabolism.” Where sometimes this is true, most often it is not the true case. There are very few genetic or common hormone issues that most can’t be overcome with the right help. It might just take a little extra work and research on your part to find a program that works for you. People usually use this as an excuse to slack when in reality they’re just not willing to put in the work and rather “blame” it on something that they see as a legit excuse. With the right type of professional guidance, nutrition, determination, and of course patience, it’s possible to overcome genetics and hormone issues and get the results you are really looking for. 2. LAZY LESLIES If you’re not really pushing yourself each workout, your results are going to be lackluster. You pretty much get out of it what you put in to it. If you quit 2 seconds after that burn sets in, you’re giving up too early. It’s not necessarily no pain no gain, but it is definitely no burn no gain! Don’t be so quick to throw that dumbbell down when the going gets tough. I always tell my clients to think about their goal when they’re ready to give up and that laziness is NOT an injury! Most of the time our minds quit before our bodies do. Really push yourself and you might be surprised with the results that come. 3. DISTRACTED DIANAS Finding yourself gazing out the window thinking about anything else than your workout? Then maybe it’s time to switch things up and try a new class or workout program. I’m not saying your workout should always be a total boatload of fun but you should somewhat enjoy it or at the very least LOVE the way you feel when you’re done. If your workout is totally boring you, it’s time to move on. How can you expect results out of something you totally dread? 4. SCARED SUSIES Ok, this is probably no surprise but to create a change you need the right resistance. I know there are some trainers and fitness gurus out there that swear by lifting pencils, but my personal opinion is the heavier the better. Within safe guidelines of course! Unless you’re taking steroids or your diet is in huge surplus of junk you are not going to look like a man. I’ve transformed hundreds of women to prove lifting heavy produces ah-mazing results! 5. CARDIO CARLYS While cardio definitely has its time and place, I see too many people skipping the weights and becoming cardio crazed. Yes, certain types of cardio help aid in fat loss but you will not maximize your results with cardio alone. The best shaped bodies (in my opinion) come from the perfect mix of resistance training with high intensity cardio. The days of long bouts of boring cardio are over! Thank goodness! 6. IMPATIENT INGRIDS All too often I see people give up way too early on in the game because they’re not exactly where they want to be! Fitness takes time! Whether it takes 3 months or 1 year, that’s ok! Everyone is on their own time frame and results will come differently for each person. Each time I came back post-pregnancy I would work for months and months with little to no change, then all of a sudden the weight would just fall off and everything would come into play. You might be just like me! So, give it time. One of the hardest parts about fitness is to keep going when the results are slow. Usually, clients are just on the verge of seeing results when they quit. Have patience and just keep going! It takes months for the average person to really start seeing serious changes, so just be consistent and stick with it. COPYRIGHTED ASHLEY SICA FITNESS TRANSFORMATION STUDIO 7400 N.
