I’m often asked what’s the “secret” to having the body and health that you want.
You know … a strong mind and body, better fitting clothes, and being able to do all the activities you love without pain.
The secret is … there is no secret.
Improving your diet, and following a well-designed exercise program that includes basic strength exercises, high-intensity interval training (HIIT) and smart core exercises will get you there.
More protein, veggies, fruit and water ... more squats and deadlifts ... and targeted, intelligent training of your midsection.
That's it.
Don’t overcomplicate things.
Don’t overwhelm yourself.
Don’t look for shortcuts, quick fixes, magic pills, or internet gurus who claim to have created some new workout program that will magically transform your body.
The human body is designed to squat, lunge, hinge, push, pull and carry stuff. Do those things consistently, and you’ll be on your way.
Fuel your body intentionally and you’ll see changes happen right before your eyes.
Rest and recover properly and your body will express its appreciation in how it moves and feels.
So yes, that’s the secret.
There is none.
Yours in health and fitness,
Chris
