“Hope is not a method.” Gen. Gordon R. Sullivan.
The next time you go to the gym, look around. You will typically find the leanest people spending the majority of their time lifting weights. The overweight people will typically be doing cardio training the majority of the time. You might say, well that is because they need to lose weight. But a year later, three years later, you’ll see the same people in the cardio area looking the same, plotting away with minimal results for their effort, if they haven’t quit all together, dejected by a lack of progress.
The reason why many consistent cardio exercisers fail to lose weight is that they rely on exercise to burn the fat instead of restricting their caloric intake. In many cases they aren’t even tracking their food intake. Huge mistake! What doesn’t get measured; doesn’t get managed. Many people don’t like logging their food because it would make them examine their food choices. They would rather fly blind than modify their eating.
They would rather exercise and hope for the best. I was taught in the military that “Hope is not a method.” Gen. Gordon R. Sullivan. I was taught to base my plans in reality. I wish I could eat whatever I wanted and just exercise 1-hour a day, but that isn’t reality. We have to accept things how they are, not how we wish them to be.
Discipline pushes us, motivation pulls us, but intentional habits keeps us moving toward our goals.
Best wishes and Best Health!
