The fitness industry is teeming with programs and schemes to get you in shape, but what’s wrong with most of these approaches? First of all, there’re lots of scams out there. I talked a little about the scams in last week’s entry where I referred you to the Dirty Health Secret to learn more.Today I want to talk about legitimate, well-trained fitness professionals and their books, programs, and guides to getting in shape. There are some great people out there trying to spread the word and help people live longer, stronger, happier lives. The whole reason I got involved in the fitness industry was to try to make a difference in the lives of as many people as I could. Along the way I've met many great individuals who share this goal.
One of the earliest problems I identified in the fitness industry (note I mean the legitimate fitness industry and not scam diet or weight loss programs), is a lack of well organized, step-by-step information. Don’t get me wrong… there are tens of thousands of volumes on how to get in shape, and many of them are great. But what’s missing is the step-by-step detail set up in a way you can actually use.
Most books and videos on fitness have some sample routines. They include sample meal plans, sample workouts, and so forth. This is great, but when you try to do these you often find they are way too easy or way too hard, and customizing them can require quite a bit of knowledge and time. Likewise the suggestions aren’t always moderate and realistic enough that you could sustain for a lifetime. If you can’t sustain the habits created in a fitness program, then it’s not a good program for you.
So over a year ago I set out to create a comprehensive program that would teach you about each major piece of the fitness puzzle, one step at a time. I don’t want to inundate you with details you’ll never use, but I do want to impart enough information that you can use the sample meal plans and programs to design a healthier lifestyle for yourself.
I want you to live a healthy, happy life. So I created the Three Weeks to Thrive program to help you get there. It’s going to coach you through your first 21 days of a healthier lifestyle, one day at a time, one topic per day.
Those who have been following FitDaily or my other programs know that I’ve been talking about this for almost a year now. I’m very excited to say that it’s finally set to be released on July 1st, 2008. I’ve set up a site where you can pre-order your copy right now. I really do believe this will be the last fitness program you ever need.
Go to www.ThreeWeekstoThrive.com to reserve the last fitness program you'll ever need right now, so you can get instant access on July 1st when it’s officially released.
