5 Steps To Get Fast Results in the Gym – Do You Go To The Gym or Do You Get Results?

May 27, 2016 by IR Staff 1 Comment

rebecca and ethan transformed their bodies with Innovative Results personal training Are you part of the 70% or more that go to the gym, but never change?

These people show up a few days a week, some more, but their bodies aren’t changing.

Why do they keep showing up at the gym?

Are they wasting their time?

I’m sure most of them figure that they are earning points for showing up…points with the doctor, their wife, their husband, status among friends or on social media check-ins

Some probably just show up out of habit or guilt.

Some of these reasons deal with other people…the ‘feeling like I have to go’ motivation, which is very weak in most cases, but most people’s motivation really stems at their own self esteem and ego about looking better.

There is major motivation there.

But if someone just feels like they need to lose some weight, and buys a gym membership, there is no connection or deep-seeded reason to create the discipline and consistent effort that is needed to change.

In order to get the fast, jaw dropping results, that we all desire, you are going to have to work…work hard…work consistently and probably have to make some serious lifestyle changes to make it happen.

Instead of just going to the gym, here are 5 steps to get fast results in the gym:

Orange County Workout Chris Six Pack AbsStep 1. Mindset – Write down your Key Fitness Goal. If you are gonna bust your but for six months or a year in the gym, get clear on what your main goal is for that time. What is your desired outcome? How do you want your body to look like, feel like, or perform like? What will change?

*the key when writing your goals the to use the SMART Goal method. It needs to be specific, measurable, ‘As if now’, realistic and time based. For example: Today is December 31st, 2016 and I, Aaron Guyett, have lost 15 pounds. Think about it and write the most important change down.

People are seriously emotional when it comes to eating, and most think of nutrition changes as some torturous and agonizing penalty that forces them to eat salads everyday of their life. Nothing could be further from the truth. When you really learn what is healthy, and how to properly integrate new foods into your lifestyle, you will be surprised how good healthy and whole food really is.

* The simplest way think of healthy eating is this: If GOD made it, eat it…or if it occurs in nature, eat it. If people messed with it, RUN! People have taken naturally occurring, amazing foods, and ruined them. We have ruined food by processing, pasteurizing, refining, adding, preserving, genetically modifying, adding chemicals, packaging, and the list can go on! The best cooks and athletes in the entire world only work with top quality ingredients and we should, too.

Gym in orange countyStep 3. Movement is the basis for exercise and most people spend their life at a desk, in a car and in front of the television. And we wonder why our backs and knees and ankles hurt. Most people need to get off the couch and go for a walk or get to the gym. When we belong to a gym, we either never go, or are inconsistent, losing intensity and progression when we are there. Innovative Results believes this comes from behaviors, habits, lack of motivation and lack of knowledge. If you are uncertain about starting to workout or how to change up your current plan, ask us for help. That is what we have spent the last 15 years getting right.

*If you do look to hire a personal trainer, fitness coach, and nutrition coach, please take the time to investigate a place and person that has proven results. Every local bodybuilder, gym rat or newbie fitness trainer does not understand the body, much less your body. If you look for advise, make sure the person is qualified and has experience dealing with people like yourself.

If you go from sitting behind a desk to working out three to five days per week, you are going to encounter some minor aches and pains. Working hard in the gym may create some soreness, muscle tightness and other aches and pains. There are a variety of recovery tactics that have worked wonders for myself and my clients. You can check them out here: Innovative Results Recovery.

* remember to start slow and listen to your body. Please take the time to learn movements correctly, and consult a physician if any pains last more than a few days or swelling occurs.

Step 5. Guidance and Coaching during your new program is essential. Having someone that can teach you, motivate, and encourage you during your fitness program will be a huge factor in your success. It is proven that working out with a partner increases your chances of success significantly! It will help you work harder, spot, correct, and make sure that you are doing things safely and properly.

* Find someone who will hold you accountable, so that you don’t get off track. Accountability and intelligent programming is key for faster results. Find somebody intelligent, that cares about you success, and listen to them to keep you focused.

I truly hope that these five steps helps you and motivates you more than the obstacles or temptations you may have.

When you work hard, and make huge progress, people WILL notice.

They will be motivated, and will look to you as an example.

You will earn an kind of instant respect from people that know you.

It will help you stand out from the crowd, and you will start to carry yourself more confidently.

Who knows, maybe you’ll get that promotion or raise!

Now go out there, kick butt, and make something great happen this week.

Dedicate Time to Heal To Speed Recovery – Three Techniques

September 6, 2015 by Jessica 2 Comments

doggie_yogaBy: Aubrie Pohl

As a fitness coach at the best gym in Orange County, we have clients that need to dedicate time to heal, so they can experience relief, improve body adaptations, and speed recovery.

Without proper recovery, the body will generate a buildup of stress.

This can create pain, joint restriction, muscle tension, tightness, discomfort, and fatigue.

These experiences will hinder your progress.

When your body doesn’t heal, you can alter your muscular-skeletal structure and notice mechanical inefficiency.

The great news is, there are actions of remedies!

If you need three ways to dedicate time to heal and recover, check out these three ways we can heal our bodies: Soft Tissue Manipulation, Temperature, and Activation.

Soft Tissue Manipulation
There is a continuous and seamless web of tissue under your skin.

It surrounds and connects the muscles, organs, bones, and is present from the top of your head to the bottoms of your feet.

It is called fascia.orange county personal trainer teaching recovery, self myofascial release, and stretching

Fascia can become restricted through injury, stress, overtraining, and poor posture.

The increase in tension can bring muscle spasms, pain, and a lack of range of motion!

A very effective method of recovery for this is soft tissue manipulation.

Using tools such as foam rollers, tennis balls, and lacrosse balls for manual massage can allow the fascia that is stuck to other fascia to let go.

Soft tissue manipulation will allow for better circulation and better functioning of the muscles.

When the muscle tissue is pulled on in different directions, the tissue will become more supple and will work better.

Implementing myofascial release in your routine is a positive action towards restoring tissue health in your body, so you can move better and feel better.

Temperature
The concept is simple, and the benefits are great!

Regulating certain temperatures on the body can help with the rehabilitation and recovery of the muscle tissues.

Try taking contrast showers, switching from hot to cold water.

The hot water gets the blood flowing and then the cold water will send the blood to protect the internal organs from the cold.

Basically, contrast showers will improve the circulation of blood and allow for a quicker recovery.

They improve lymphatic circulation and blood circulation to detox the body and make the organs work better due to the blood that gets forced into them from the cold.

The temperature change stimulates the nervous system, circulatory system, and immune system to reduce Delayed Onset Muscle Syndrome and increase recovery.

Ice packs, ice baths, and thermal blankets are other sources of temperature tools to aid in healing the muscles and decreasing pain and dysfunction.

Activation
Although it takes place during a workout, activation is an essential action for recovery.

Before performing strength exercises, making sure to “light up” the muscles that you will use to allow your body to warm up before expending a force output.

Activation prevents injury, because contracting muscles during a strength exercise that are not activated or warmed up puts the joints and muscles at risk for sprains, tears, and sometimes breaks!

When properly activated, the muscles can perform their best during the strength movement and can quickly recover without being overwhelmed.

3PM Crew

It is far better not to be hasty through the workout, and be honest with yourself about the quality of your warm ups.

Being careful will bring you progress faster, as opposed to frequently recovering from injuries.

As your muscle tissue gets healthier, you will feel better each and every day.

Dedicating time to aid your body in recovery will benefit you before, during, and after your workouts.

3 Keys to Quick Weight Loss, Gaining Muscle Fast and Permanent Fat Loss

September 30, 2009 by ptpt 5 Comments

Looking for quick weight loss?

The majority of gym goers are locked into a foggy series of actions that lead nowhere.  “But they’re working out” you may say.  I disagree.  They are at the gym, but they are far from working out.  Most people that frequent gyms are just stuck in a rut, whether they want to admit it or not.

Most of us have good intentions when joining a gym or starting any exercise program.  Losing weight for your wedding, dropping body fat for the new bikini, or gaining muscle to look more manly.  But here’s where most people fumble.. they start showing up, wandering around and just using whatever they know how to use.  There’s no strategic path, there’s no clear goal and there is definitely no intensity to make it happen.

Here are 3 main factors that will help you get to your goal faster than you ever thought possible.

Lose weight faster than you ever thought possible.

Pile on muscle faster than anyone at your gym.

Here are the secret factors that no one ever talks about that will help you develop the body you have always wanted.

1.  You have to know what you want, why you want it and when you are going to achieve it. Goal setting is the foundation of success.  Developing the body you desire also takes planning.  Do you know what you want to achieve in the gym?  Is it a flat stomach, gigantic shoulders, a record breaking squat, a higher vertical jump?  What result are you looking for?  Got it?  Ok, now why do you want that?  Here’s a secret, it better be important.  If you are not passionate about your goals, then when distractions come up and life gets in the way, you will lose focus and you wont get the results you desire. So, take some time and make your goals clear, figure out why you want em, and lastly set a deadline.  You’ve gotta have something to shoot for, to chase, to strive for in order to win.

2. Next is the secret to success in the gym. If you wanna pass everyone in your gym and get incredible results, here is the number one secret: INTENSITY. Most people just go through the motions, never pushing themsleves, never making progress, never changing anything.  We are creatures of habit, but in order to make progress we have to break through that monotony.  People that gain muscle, move big weights or lose weight successfully walk into the gym with a purpose.  They are focussed on their goals and they are going to workout with everything they’ve got.  You’ve probably seen them at your gym and there is no doubt that they are there to kick butt and get results.  If your goals are clear and important, then the next step is to walk in the gym with a winning attitude, ready to work harder than ever, push yourself and earn the results you desire!

3. Consistency is key! Everyone has heard to story of the tortoise and the hair.  Most people start a program, then fizzle out.  They are too tired, too sore, too busy, etc.  If you want to make a dramatic change in your body and/or your performance, then a consistent, focused level of intensity conquers all. On the road to your goal there are always bumps in the road and everything wont go as planned, but if you are consistent and fight through the challenges, you will be rewarded, I promise!

So, get focused on your objective, develop passion for that result, work harder than ever and stay consistent no matter what gets in your way.  Anything is possible if you apply these tips to your workouts.

Do you have any other tips that have helped you?

We’d love to hear em..leave us a comment.
