Start Thinking Like An Athlete

By Matthew Pryor | Categories: Blog, Mindset

Too often, we only think of famous athletes as “athletes.” I have news… if you’re pursing fitness, you’re an athlete. Here are 3 reasons why you need to start thinking like an athlete. READ ON…

Why We Get Fat
Why We Get Fat is an invaluable key in our understanding of an international epidemic and a guide to what each of us can do about it. A follow up to his New York Times best seller, Good Calories, Bad Calories, Taubes reveals the bad nutritional science of the last century, none more damaging or misguided than the “calories-in, calories-out” model of why we get fat, and the good science that has been ignored, especially regarding insulin’s regulation of our fat tissue.

The goal in trimming down should NOT be to lose weight but rather to shed fat. There are two key differences. Today I’ll give you the first one.

Fat matters, weight does not. Repeat after me: “Fat matters, weight does not.” When you are measuring total weight rather than body fat percentage, gaining muscle (which is a good thing, even though it weighs more than fat) will move the bathroom scale in the wrong direction in your mind.

But say you’ve reached your goal figure, clothes now fit the way you’ve always wanted, you have a renewed confidence, and energy is at an all-time high… does it really matter if the scale says you weigh 12 pounds more than you thought you would to have such a figure? No, it doesn’t. IT IS COMPLETELY IRRELEVANT.

I know this is a hard one, especially for ladies who tend to focus on the scale. But the sooner you reorient your thinking, the sooner you’ll start making real and long-lasting changes that will move you closer and closer to your goals.

I have insulin resistance and my blood sugar was way high. I knew I had to do something, so when I heard about Matthew, I decided to check it out. It has helped me tremendously. In just about 4 months my blood sugar went way down!! The doctor is happy and so am I. I also enjoyed doing the 90 Day Fitness Challenge. It helped me take more responsibility for every area of my life.
