Hey strength fan’s, there’s A lOT of things out there that can prevent you from your weight loss goals. I have listed the top 6 I feel may be preventing YOU from losing weight.
1) You don’t eat ENOUGH
This sounds odd. If you’re trying to lose weight you would think I would say the opposite right?
Well, here’s why, your body is a machine and it needs fuel!
If you deprive a machine of its fuel, what’s going to take place? It’s going to stop running correct??
Well, your metabolism works the same way in that if you deprive it of energy (or food) it’s going to slow way down or get close to stopping.
This causes you to hit the wall and stop losing weight not to mention have really low energy levels.
To solve this problem, try to eat SMALL, BALANCED meals every 2-3 hours. That will keep a steady in stream of energy coming in to keep the metabolism rolling on all cylinders. Don’t skip meals!
2) You eat TOO MUCH at the wrong times!
I LOVE breakfast! Not only because it’s my first meal but it gets to be my BIGGEST meal! Most people skip breakfast all together! That’s not good! That sets you up to fail already.
Now, the point of #2 is that most people eat less in the morning and more at night. If that’s You then Your eating habits need to pull a 180, and quick!
Here’s the reason why – when you wake up – you NEED energy NOW, you need to start that machine we just talked about, so your meals should be just a bit bigger than meals closer to bedtime. When you eat more in the morning, you have ALL day to burn that food off. When you eat tons for dinner, like most people do, you really don’t burn off all of that food and then when you go to sleep, it gets stored as FAT and not used for energy.
So it’s simple- keep your bigger meals in the morning and the smaller meals at night.
3) You do ineffective cardio
Long, slow steady state cardio is NOT going to help you lose weight!
Stick to short, high intensity interval to crank up the calorie burn and melt the fat off your body. It takes half the time and you get twice the results!
We NEVER do ineffective cardio at Real World Strength Coach; you will always be doing some sort of high intensity interval training to crank up the fat burn.
Hey if your not sweating and i mean soaked, there’s somehting wrong!
4) You do ineffective resistance training
Machines and isolation exercises – it was the big craze in the 70’s and 80’s when people were in better shape.
Today machines and isolation exercises such as curls, tricep extensions, crunches and the likes don’t cut it anymore. They just don’t give you the overall calorie burn you need to shed those extra pounds.
The solution – multi joint exercises in circuits. So this means tons of body weight workouts like squats, lunges, push ups, pull ups, bear crawls, and abdominal exercise that involve stabilization like planks.
5) You’re too inconsistent
Has your weight loss ever been like a roller coaster? Up and down and up and down…
It’s because you go for a while, then quit. Then you go for a while again and then quit.
Your inconsistency is killing your progress! Too many people start and stop too often.
To solve this problem and keep you consistent, make short term goals. Every time you hit these goals, keep making more goals to hit. This will keep your progress moving forward instead of you getting discouraged and stopping progress all together. Keep track of your gains and losses. It’s ok if you don’t always get closer towards your goal, just make sure you’re not getting further away and you’ll be ok!
6) No accountability
This one is true for A LOT of people I have worked with. You have no one to check into. When you have no one looking over your shoulder, making sure you’re pushing towards your goal, you won’t be as likely to keep going and pushing yourself towards your goal.
The solution – get a personal trainer, workout with a buddy, or even better, join Real World Strength Coach! You need likeminded people to keep you accountable for your actions! If you have no one to keep tabs on you, you’ll only be letting yourself down when you quit then when you have someone else depending on you.
Now whether you join Real World Strength Coach or just take action on your own i urge you TO TAKE ACTION and start to meet your weight loss goals!

Here is a quick Barbell Complex Idid today that builds work capacity. Work capacity translates directly into Real World Strength.
You would be surprised how many people out there that look big and strong but have no work capacity at all. Yes they may be able to lift all kinds of weight in the gym but that does not necessarily translate into real world situations and that’s what we are after here strength that will help us improve our everyday life.

I know that you have all heard about drinking 8 glasses of water a day for a healhy diet but do you know why you are drinking the water or what it does for your body?
1st the human body is made up of 50%-75% water, and that same average human loses about 2 1/2 quarts or 10 cups of water a day, so you must at least replenish this much for proper body function.
2nd since we are active humans constructing real world strength we will lose and need even more water for our bodys to function properly.
3rd Water acts as a natural appetite suppressant and water is constantly moving good nutrients into the body while it also removes waste or harmful things out of the body.
4th The more water you drink the less soda/juice or other beverages that have tons of empty calories you will drink.
These are just a few of the many advantages to drinking water so how much does The Real World Strength Coach drink well i try and drink 2 gallons a day.
I have my trusty little half gallon jug that i aim to drink 4 a day while any more than 2 i will be getting enough water for proper body function and if i hit my goal i will have my body running in overdrive!
Its just a simple $1.59 jug from wal mart that i replace every few weeks and i just fil it up with tap water and take it everywhere with me and i mean everywhere, at first people might look at you funny but they will get used to it and as they see you change and get stronger you will see them with thier own bottle.
Construct that Strength
