You'll Get Wasted on a Fitness Binge
When was your last Fitness Binge? The last time you got so excited to get into shape that you hit the gym everyday for two weeks, cut your calorie intake in half, and vowed never to look at a donut again… At best, I’m guessing that you failed to change your body significantly (aside from a broken and battered spirit of course), at worst, you may have hurt yourself.
The official definition of a “Fitness Binge” is the act of using hyper-motivation to set unrealistic fitness goals and deadlines while neglecting to invest the proper amount of time, discipline, and commitment necessary to achieve them. This term is closely related to another endlessly repeated and rarely successful act known as the New Year’s Resolution.
Unfortunately, Fitness Binges and New Year’s Resolutions usually lead to extremely sore individuals that end up avoiding exercise and proper nutrition for another year… until the next Fitness Binge/New Year’s Resolution begins.
Fitness Binges can happen to the best of us, but with the careful planning and execution of a solid fitness and nutrition program, you can avoid this dreaded and extremely unproductive occurrence in the future.
So, why are Fitness Binges so common?
The countless quick-fix body transformation infomercials you’ve seen over the years are partly to blame for Fitness Binges. If it’s not surgery, it’s a pill. If it’s not a pill, it’s a piece of fitness equipment. If it’s not a piece of fitness equipment, it’s a crazy mindset change. And on, and on, and on…
Whatever it is, millions of advertising dollars have been spent to convince you to risk life and limb in a feeble effort to achieve something in weeks that really takes months or years.
Fitness Binges come in different time lengths. They are not limited to a couple weeks (although many people complete their Fitness Binge between January 1st and January 14th); they can last for a couple months. What makes a concerted fitness effort turn into a Fitness Binge is that it is not sustainable over a lifetime. It is a sprint, albeit a long one at times, but a sprint nonetheless (and you’re life will last longer than that).
You may be in the middle of a Fitness Binge, and not even know it!
To find out whether or not you’re in a Fitness Binge, think about how many times you had an intense workout that was 45 minutes or longer in the last two weeks. If it was 14 times, then you, my friend, are in the middle of a Fitness Binge! A sustainable fitness plan includes rest and recovery. Whether its tomorrow or 10 years from now, you will pay for the abuse at some point.
Take a step back and look at your workout and diet journal (Oh, you don’t have a journal? Strike two!), have you been progressing in weight, reps, exercise difficulty, etc? Or have you been doing the same thing day in and day out, never really moving forward? Progression is essential to increase the benefits of your fitness program; it also keeps the workouts interesting, helping you avoid a Fitness Binge due to sheer boredom.
Does your fluctuating schedule determine the amount of time you spend exercising? Maybe you don’t work as much during the summer, so you really push it at the gym. You hit some aerobic classes and then it’s straight to spin, then maybe a run in the afternoon! But wait! Fall hits and you’re slammed again, so you stop working out all together. If this sounds like you, you’re binge-tastic!
How can you turn your effort into success, rather than just a Fitness Binge?
So, you’re tired of Fitness Binges and you’re ready to commit to a real change. What do you do? Where do you start?
First and foremost, you need a workout and nutrition plan, something you will follow to the last detail as you start your new healthy lifestyle. Because breaking bad habits (like eating fast food) and practicing new ones (like exercising regularly) are so difficult, the first four weeks will be the most challenging and the most important. After the four weeks are up, you have accomplished something significant: you have turned a Fitness Binge into a real transformation. However, the key to an ultimate transformation is to keep going from there.
Following this simple list will get you on the right track to a proper body transformation:
1. Set a REAL Goal
Deciding on a goal that will give you the proper motivation is vital. It can't just be "I want to get big!" This will only take you so far. You need concrete, specific goals with definite deadlines. “I want to bench 300lbs by February.” “I want to squat 400lbs within three months.” “I want to be 10% bodyfat by my birthday.” These are the goals that will keep you going over the long haul because they are trackable, realistic, and worthwhile.
Don’t get to crazy with it though, you can’t do everything. Choosing too many goals will pull you in too many directions. Seek and destroy. That should be your motto when it comes to your goal.
2. Ask & Answer the Right Questions Before You Start
Let's take the goal of achieving 10% bodyfat for example. What exactly will you need to do to achieve this goal? How many calories should you be eating? How much should you be working out? What type of training is the best for you given your current fitness level, equipment, etc? These are just a few of the questions you should be asking and answering before you start. You don’t have to know everything (because you will learn more as you progress), but you need to know enough to ensure that you are heading in the right direction. Find the best ways to get down to 10% bodyfat and don't stop until you do.
So what’s the easiest way to find the information you need? Talk to professionals in your area or online and find a plan that works for you. Buy books and read articles. Voraciously attack every piece of learning material you can. Soak it all in and start working. You don't want something that just sounds good, you want something that fits with your goal and your lifestyle. If you work 12 hours a day and have a family, don't pick something that requires two workouts a day. Know your limits and how much time and effort you plan on putting in.
3. Don’t Be Afraid to Change Your Plan, But ONLY IF YOU NEED TO
Don’t keep doing something that’s not working just because it’s in your original plan; however, make sure you have the evidence to warrant a change. This means you need to assess your progress in measurements (bodyfat, weight, waist size, etc) and performance (max push ups, 1-mile run time, etc) on a regular basis. It’s possible increase your performance without changing your body significantly, and vice versa. Knowing where you’re at will help you make a positive change.
Always remember that your goal will not be achieved overnight, and even small improvements may take a lot of time. If you get impatient, you risk falling into the dreaded Fitness Binge we keep talking about. There is no set time for anything, only an unspecified amount of time that it will take your unique body, in your unique situation, to achieve your specific goals. What may take one person 12 weeks to accomplish a similar goal could take you 36 weeks. Stay on target, track your progress, and adjust as necessary.
4. Reap the Benefits, But Don't Get Lazy
What happens after you finally achieve your goals? You get back to work! Many people achieve something and feel a little letdown because they’re not working for anything anymore. The goal may have been to get down to 10%, but then what? What do you do now?
First and foremost you need to sit back and think of all the hard work you went through to get to where you are. Be proud of yourself. You did something most people won't. You followed through on what you said. The world is full of talkers, but you just proved you’re a doer.
Don’t get too comfortable; now it’s time to make a new goal and keep moving forward. Don’t break you’re new habits, laziness will only derail you from the track you've now established. The last thing you want to do is relapse after a total body transformation!
So if you, or anyone you know, is or has taken part in a Fitness Binge (or several), don't worry. Help is here! Just follow the four steps above and you will be on your way to the road of recovery. Pick a goal, plan your attack, attack your plan, and enjoy the results. If you follow these basic steps religiously you will see incredible changes in your body!
