Learning the importance of staying consistent and having discipline for working out


Before I dive into this blog topic, I would like to give a huge thanks to the United States Marine Corps for preparing and strengthening my mental capacity. Now, as I looked back on my past, I guess those sand fleas down in Paris Island finally paid off๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘.






Anyway, I would like to share with you all why you want to remain consistent and to develop some discipline to your workout plan. Whether you know it or not, there is a constant battle going on between your body and mind. If you do not focused on getting your mind on track, then you will delay any fitness goal you may have set. Why? I'm not really sure but I can tell you from experience that your body will follow what the mind does. Have you ever wonder how long does it takes your body to develop a new habit? There's a lot of debates out there and I've came across some results of 21 days, 1 month, and 6 weeks. As you can see, there is not a factual answer but the one thing that is evident is you must willingly make that choice. So, you have to be disciplined enough to stick to it and owned up to your decision. 


Stay consistent and do not be so quick to give up if you don't see results instantly. I've dealt with a lot of individuals who were motivated to start a new workout routine but decided to quit early because they was not seeing the expected result. I can relate somewhat so I try my best to encourage not to give up so easily. Think about how long it took for you to get to your current fitness level. For the majority, I guarantee that it didn't happened overnight. So, reaching your fitness goal will take some time. How long? Now, that depends on how determined and discipline you are. 


Developing discipline is a challenge within itself but it starts with the mind. Surrounding yourself with those who have similar goals could help you as well if you're unable to find a personal trainer. If you haven't found out by now, words are powerful and you can set yourself back in your goals if you keep speaking and doubting yourself.


If you want someone to take you serious, start off by being consistent. That can be applied in Life as well. I hope this blog post was just the material you needed not to give up on your goals. It will be a challenge, but the reward is worth it.
