Motivation is multi faceted and there is no single reason you would choose to do a certain activity or act a certain way, meaning there are several reasons why you do what you do. One of the biggest indicators, if not the biggest indicator as to why you do what you do is based on the feedback you receive. So if you’re trying to change something or live a more healthy lifestyle you need to give yourself feedback that directly supports this way of living.
Motivation is not something you find it’s something you develop that operates on a spectrum so build systems and join a community that shares the same values that you have, so you can move your way to being more motivated on that spectrum.
It’s Q & A weekends guys where we answer your question! If you would like your question answered on the show please send us an email to info@fitnessforfreedom.com. This week we have the most asked question we get when people visit our site, I’m not sure what to do or where to start, can you show me?
The biggest problem I find people have with treadmills or any kind of stationary cardiovascular equipment is just that, it’s stationary. You’re doing a whole lot of work but you’re not visibly moving forward so right off the bat you have subconscious or quite possibly conscious cues working against you. So we need to find ways to overcome that, this means finding ways to distract yourself from what’s happening and giving yourself feedback about how you’re improving.

Running on a treadmill has a lot of great benefits, you don’t have to worry about the extreme cold or wind, if something bad happens you can stop immediately and the track is completely level, this means you don’t have to worry as much about rolling your ankle or slipping. It’s just a more comfortable run when you can’t handle the elements of the outdoors. Today we're going to talk about how to do it safely, efficiently and effectively.

Exercise has a lot of great health benefits but I don’t know exactly why you should exercise because everyone exercises for different reasons, so let’s talk about what exercise does for you and then you can decide why you should exercise and live a more active lifestyle.

Most people think they have to make extreme changes in how they live because they want to see massive changes in their body, but extreme and overly restricted changes are not necessary. Small changes over time can lead to massive overall changes that last a life time. They last a lifetime because they are small and you implement them slowly enough they become part of your life. Meaning they are much more likely to stick.

If you’re like most people (and let’s face it you probably are) you’ve struggled with losing weight, starting an exercise program or trying to make some sort of lifestyle change. Doing it for a little while was relatively easy, but over time you slowly slipped and weren’t able to make the changes stick for the long-term. This can happen for many reasons, but the biggest reason is that you need to think about exercise and nutrition in a slightly different way. In this episode we talk about reframing the way you think about fitness, nutrition and living a healthy lifestyle.
