Deliberate Human Performance

Always play the long game...

Having 2 or 5 cupcakes now, is harmless, in fact it's nice and tasty but do it for long enough and said cupcakes will eventually show up on your waist..
Working out right now on the other hand, has no results. In fact, it's just painful, uncomfortable and requiring a lot of self discipline and effort. It's a pain to be honest. However, do it hard enough, for long enough and consistently enough, and you'll see amazing results.

Fat loss Transformation Tip #3
Make sure your environment supports your fat loss goals.
~
Clear out junk in your house if seeing food around is the only thing you need to arouse your cravings.
Go to the jungle gym if the forest gives you a sense of calm.
Get a trainer if you know you can't do it on your own.
Involve your spouse, if they are the ones that motivate you to action.
~
Make sure whatever is around you, is pushing you towards fat loss and muscle building efforts.

Fat loss Transformation Tip #4
Your cheat day may be a lifestyle in disguise.
If your weekends are designated cheat days and you have 96 weekends in a year and your adult life is easily 15-25 years, your cheat days maybe a lifestyle...
If your caloric deficit is 1500 calories a day but on the weekends you consume 3000 calories per day. You easily have 36,000 calories in excess in only 2 months and I'm not counting those days when you feel 'you deserve' or 'you've earned' your ice cream...
There's no way your healthy diet and your 3 days a week of training can compete with that..
When it comes to fat loss everything counts. Your cheat days, your 3 cups of coffee a day, your harmless samosa, and your well deserved glass of wine every Friday. Over a couple of months, it all adds up.
