it has been so long since i've swung a kettlebell
what's up everybody schuyler diehm here lifestyle fat loss coach and founder of schuyfit where
we help our clients lose fat build muscle and optimize their health and just become a better
human being now if you have not seen a couple months ago i did a kettlebell challenge i swung
a 70 pound kettlebell 200 times a day every single day for 30 days and it really changed me i got a
lot stronger i improved in a lot of ways and it was extremely beneficial with that being said
i have barely swung a kettlebell since then but why is it because i am in pain is it because
they're not as good for me as i thought uh no it's not kettlebell swings are extremely effective
extremely healthy they're going to strengthen you they're going to help you in pretty much
every way if you're doing them the right way so the reason i stopped is honestly because
i got sick of them for 30 days every single day i swung a kettlebell 200 times that is a lot and so
i think this brings up a really really good point on the psychology of behavior that if you tend to
overdo something or it feels like you're overdoing it or you're pushing yourself to the point where
you feel extremely disciplined and you don't enjoy things along the way it is very very easy to go on
the opposite side of the spectrum go from doing something all the time doing it very often to not
doing it at all now the same thing happened to me with my meditation challenge ever since meditating
an hour a day for seven days i haven't meditated as much since same thing happened with my pull-up
challenge ever since doing 100 pull-ups every single day i haven't wanted to do pull-ups as much
and so we got to understand when we look at people who are trying to lose weight trying to bulk up
trying to build muscle lose fat get healthier whatever it is the tendency for most people is
to go all in the tendency is to commit 100 to some strict diet it's to commit to an hour to an hour
and a half workout multiple times a week multiple times more than they typically were a week and if
they hop into it too fast and they don't ease into it and they don't start to enjoy it and
they're just doing it for the discipline odds are is they're gonna fall out the other side of the
spectrum and when i say they i may be talking to you right has that ever happened to you is that
something you've experienced where you've gone all in with something you've done it really well for a
short period of time but soon enough you get sick of it and you don't want to do it again maybe it's
salads maybe it's working out maybe it's doing something that is good for you and you know it's
good for you but it's not paying off in the way that you want and so you quit so this video isn't
some existential crisis about kettlebells it's not some research that found they're actually
not good for you it's a call to action to you it's encouragement for you to start looking
at your routine start looking at the strategies you have to lose fat and to lose weight to build
muscle to get healthier whatever you're working on improving your life doesn't even have to be health
could be relationships could be career look at the things that you're throwing yourself all into and
figure out how you can do them in moderation how you can ease into them and how you can start to
enjoy them when i work with my clients on fat loss because it's a one-on-one program because
it's very very custom to the individual we look at how we can ease into things and we do things
in a very very strategical way we don't do things that feel overwhelming or frustrating
or really difficult to follow through with i've had multiple clients tell me that it feels way
easier than it has in the past for them to actually lose the weight and so that's our goal
right most people when they're trying to lose weight they just look at the external right
they look at the exercise they have to do the eating that they have to perform potentially the
sleep and the stress reduction but most people aren't looking at the behavioral standpoint the
psychological aspect of things which is how do i make sure that i stay consistent what is the
psychology behind consistency and staying on track you know it's a big reason why our program is
way more successful than most other programs out there is because we take a look at the psychology
of the individual and we wrap that all into one package to make sure that the actual strategies
are followed through it because they're enjoyed because there's accountability because there's
challenge because there's things that the person actually enjoys doing and actually makes them feel
good it doesn't just make them feel like they're on some disciplined or rigid schedule so this
video is short and sweet for you today you are working on losing weight and you are not seeing
the results that you want because you struggle with consistency number one the quickest option
is to take a look at what you are doing right now what feels like it's way too rigid what feels like
it takes way too much discipline and figure out how to ease back on it or number two which in my
opinion is the more efficient option is to check the link in the description and book a call with
myself so we can talk about where you're at i'd love to help you on your fat loss journey i'd love
