Prompted by a real conversation with a member who turned up to a lunchtime strength session with a fit class and football training still ahead of him and no food or water in his system, James runs through everything from protein intake and sleep to mobility, massage, and why fat loss jabs are solving the wrong problem. Practical, honest, and worth eight minutes of anyone's time. What we cover: Why most people are overtraining and under-recoveringHow long you actually need to spend in the gymThe protein reality check most people need to hearWhat 1,000 calories a day actually does to your body long termMobility, massage and foam rolling — why most people skip itSleep — the free fix most people ignoreWhy fat loss jabs won't work if the habits aren't thereHow improving by just 5-10% over 30 days changes everything Hosted on Acast.

    4 Myths that are stopping you from starting

    READY TO START?👉 30-Day Trial (In-Gym Group Training): https://www.elevatefitnessworthing.com/30daytrial-856705👉 Work with Us 1-to-1: https://www.elevatefitnessworthing.com/elevateonlineFREE Meal guide and planner: https://www.elevatefitnessworthing.com/meal-planner-8545 In this episode I sit down with Aston — new coach at Elevate Fitness, 8 years of training experience — to go through the excuses that keep people out of the gym or stuck in a rut. We cover the big ones. "I need to get fit before I join" — why this is the same as saying you need to practise driving before you have lessons, and what to do instead. "I don't have time" — why it's a planning problem, not a time problem. Plus the minimum/maximum standards framework that stops busy people quitting. Why group training works for accountability — and why just having a gym membership with nothing booked in usually doesn't. The difference between exercising and training. (Including a story about a guy on a cross trainer that'll sound very familiar.) Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
