Q: I work with a client that is continually dealing with a lack of motivation with respect to training and her fat loss goals. Any help?

Answer:
Here are three motivational tips gleamed from experience and study:

1. Set small, attainable goals in order that they will propel you into future success. For example, set a simple goal that you will avoid excess food at parties this weekend. And set another goal as simple as having a great workout tomorrow. A third example is setting a small goal of losing 1 pound of fat in the next 10 days without losing muscle mass. Set these small goals to get the ball rolling, and success will breed success.

2. Tell everyone that you know that you are going to lose 5 pounds of fat. Telling everyone creates accountability. Most people have the integrity to see things through and don't want to let other people down on their promises.

3. Enlist social support. The support can come from your spouse, sibling, parents, children, friend, neighbor, co-worker, personal trainer, or lifestyle coach. Research suggests that the best support comes from a health professional such as a doctor or nurse. Social support is the #1 factor for a woman's success in fitness programs. Don't try to go it alone. Get some support. It will make the journey more fun and more effective.


Q: I have 2 protein shakes per day. Is that too many?

Answer:
It all depends on how the shakes fit into your plan. If they don't upset your stomach, and they help you reach your required amount of daily protein, then it is fine. Protein shakes are not much different than drinking a glass of milk - just with twice the protein.

Q: Are there any new fat loss secrets?

Answer from my colleague, Mike Zappitelli, a fitness competition expert from Niagara Falls:
As for 'fat loss secrets'...nothing new but hard work and discipline. My key word now for everyone is 'responsibility'.
Those that want to gain weight or lose weight can only rely on themselves and their 'want' for it...This is what will bring accomplishment ultimately, in the end.

Work hard,

"The TT membership is invaluable to me on two different levels. One, as someone who uses them (that being me). It's great to have all of the workouts in an organized fashion and well, it's great just to have all of the workouts available to you at any time. If I need a quick 4 week workout (and also one that works) I just login and do scope them out and pick the one that fits my needs at the time. Two, as a trainer. It's perfect for getting new ideas for program design for my clients as well as being able to see new modifications to exercises that Craig comes up with that I can include for my clients. It's an endless supply of information and you just can't go wrong including it in your library of health and fitness information."
