| The broken belief I hear the most is, “I want to do this but I need to be fitter before I start.” Men message this page and ask for help then shoot themselves in the foot thinking this is too hard for them, or they fear they’ll be the most unfit bloke in the class. What’s scary is this belief is way too common! We’ve probably all felt this way at some point. Sure, it comes down to comparing yourself to others, but what’s the real cost? Well, you’ll go away and try to “get fitter” on your own. But fitness is NOT THE PROBLEM! Look, you might hate to look in the mirror, have the nagging feeling you’ll NEVER be able to be your ideal weight and see people older than you but who look younger. The problem isn’t fitness, it’s energy and confidence – yes cheesy to admit at first but hear me out. If you backed yourself to achieve the goal of dropping 10-20kg of body fat and improving strength drastically in the gym – you’d get started today no matter what. If you go it alone to “get ready” to join a gym or fitness program, you are admitting that you don’t have confidence in yourself today to get started. So then you start to identify with all the excuses, for example those aches/pains/old injuries that discourage you from training hard. You don’t have direction with your diet when you go it alone either, so hormones aren’t optimising and there’s no accountability. This means you’ll remain in a low energy state and need a nap to get through the afternoon. That’s why I recommend men just START on the built method. First off – you’ll have a coach with you tailoring the program to YOU from day one. Not fit enough for what we had planned that day? No problem, the coach adjusts it for you – the goal is to have a long term focus through your daily effort. You see, it’s the EFFORT you give each day that matters – not what you achieve in the gym but how your LIFE improves. That’s what coaching on The Built Method is all about: – We will stop you chasing abs, there’s no need for a 40-50 year old man – your health is the real key – You’ll start to manage stress better because your lifestyle is key to a healthier body – You’ll be training like an athlete because it’s about physical capacity and resilience to injury, not how big your arms are (of course, this often ends up in more muscle growth than if you focused on it because you get strong as hell!) Above all, the reason a Built Method coach will help you is you can take action today and back yourself, have confidence in your ability to change and improve your health. Going it alone until you feel fitter is an illogical idea, commercial gyms take your money and hope you don’t show up! Plus like I said, you’re confirming a lack of faith in your health. Reach out today to get started on our next intake in September 2021. Online or in-person at our gym in Birchwood, Warrington. On the Built Method we teach men how to get their body to a natural state where getting lean,building muscle and living healthy is EASY simply by using fasting and strength training in a strategic way. |
