As coaches who have dedicated years to training over a thousand individuals, we’ve gathered invaluable insights that can help you navigate your fitness journey— Here are top pieces of fitness advice MMFitness coaches want you to know that few coaches will bother telling you:

1. Choose Your Convenience

If you find yourself struggling with discipline, consider working out in the mornings before work. By getting your workout done early, you eliminate excuses that may arise later in the day. On the other hand, if you are disciplined enough and would rather unwind and decompress after work, then evening workout are for you. Also, helps improve quality of sleep.

2. Acknowledge that Life will not Stop Happening

Excuses will always be present, and life does not magically provide more time for workouts. Recognize that everyone faces obstacles—whether they are work commitments, family responsibilities, or unexpected events. The key is to prioritize your health and fitness despite these challenges.

3. The Kitchen is Just as Important as the Gym

You’ve likely heard this before, but it bears repeating: weight is not lost or gained in the gym. The most significant changes occur in the kitchen. Focus on your nutrition as much as your workouts. A balanced diet rich in whole foods will complement your exercise routine and enhance your results.

4. Age is Just a Number

Some of the strongest individuals we’ve encountered were over the age of 50. Don’t let age be a barrier to reclaiming your health and vitality. It’s never too late to start your fitness journey, and every step you take can lead to significant improvements in your life.

5. Don’t See the Gym as Just a Place to Lose or Gain Weight

We’ve seen people achieve more than weight loss at the gym. We’ve seen their mental health get better. We’ve seen them find friendships and community within the space. If you’re struggling with motivation or just general situations in your life, seek out a gym that fosters friendships and support among its members.

This is not an ad but the camaraderie at MMFitness is unmatched!

6. Set Realistic Goals

While we believe you can achieve anything you set your mind to, it’s crucial to set realistic goals. Unrealistic expectations can lead to disappointment and negatively impact your mental health. Instead of fixating on major milestones, celebrate small progressive wins along the way. Each step forward is worth acknowledging!

7. The Journey gets Boring

Repetition can lead to boredom, which is why finding a gym that offers a sense of community and variety is essential. Gyms with diverse coaching styles and programs keep workouts engaging and help maintain motivation over time. Explore different classes or training methods to keep things exciting!
