Three Things That Require Simplification

If we’re being honest with ourselves, we have all had a moment where we overcomplicated a certain topic or activity and burnt out.

This can happen very easily for any beginners when starting to workout.

So today I thought I’d simplify three main topics that often get overcomplicated.

Workout Splits

It’s often said that more is so much better when working out.

This just isn’t true.

You do not need 6-7 workouts a week. That’s going to make you burn out and start to neglect the gym.

All you need to build muscle and lose weight is 3-4 days.

If you choose the 3 day option, just do 3 - Full Body workouts

If you choose the 4 day option, just do 2 - Upper workouts and 2 - Lower workouts

Simple!

Toning the Muscle

I see this all over social media, and honestly—it drives me a little crazy. I feel bad for the people being convinced that they can "tone" their stomach or arms just by doing mobility work or a 10-minute workout with 5lb dumbbells.

The truth is, when most people hear the word “toned,” they’re thinking lean, defined, strong.

And those results don’t come from stretching and light circuits alone—they come from real strength training, proper nutrition, and consistency.

We want to eat in a calorie deficit and progress in the gym by getting stronger in the exercises that we choose.

Exercise Selection

I see it way to often where people will change exercises every 2-3 weeks because something new has become popular.

We should avoid doing this.

We want to stick to exercises we enjoy for each muscle group and be consistent with those for a minimum of 8 weeks.

You can change exercises after those 8 weeks but if you keep switching it up, you will be missing out on a lot of progress.

Apply for Coaching

Are you tired of spinning your wheels in the gym without seeing real progress?
Do you want a clear, customized plan that actually fits your life (and gets results)?
Ready to finally stop guessing and start training with purpose?

If you said “yes” to any of those, it might be time to apply for coaching.
