HELM Training Co.

Time and reps are our friend! Developing a movement pattern or skill can be frustrating, but understanding how the body actually does this can make it a bit easier to endure the time.

Some client highlights from some of our hybrid & semi-private clients over the past week!

Everybody is making progress left and right 💪🏼

I first heard this saying from on his stories and it’s been something I use with clients ever since.

Here’s how this works

In life we have things that just need to get done, like taking out the trash. You hardly even think about it but you do it because you know it needs to. And you do it even when you don’t want to (I mean, who does, honestly?)

Your health and fitness has so many of these same type of tasks and should be the same way

My goal is to get everyone moving more, better, and frankly just trying to get to minimum recommended activity guidelines

Sometimes to do that you have to do the things when you don’t want to - like taking out the trash.

Eventually, with consistent effort over long periods of time, it becomes easier and easier to do but they still need to get done.

So the next time you “don’t want to” train, prep, or move a bit, think about the fact that you will probably still take out the trash this week.

Hope this analogy sticks with you as much as it has with me!
