The Five Characteristics Fit People Don't Possess

Hi there, Ron Kusek back again with another great post for you to help you get in the best shape possible in minimal time. Today I’m going to share with you my top 5 traits that will absolutely kill any chances of you getting into the best shape of your life.

These are the worst characteristics you can have and if you recognize any of these in yourself, you had better do everything you can to shake these habits as soon as possible if you aspire to improve your health, self-image, and muscle tone.

My top 5 fitness killers are listed as follows:

1. The “Denier”- People who are in denial always struggle to lose weight because they can never face the music. They always overestimate their compliance with the exercise and nutrition plan set before them. They’ll never admit to overeating, skipping workouts, or anything else that will force them to accept responsibility for their lack of results. Recognizing where you fail is key to getting fit permanently. Admit where you are wrong and work to change it.
2. The “Procrastinator”- This one is obvious. These people are always “getting ready” to start something, but can never get around to it. Procrastinators know they are overweight, out of shape, and unhealthy, but always find a reason to not to start their exercise plan. They are dreamers (another bad trait); people who want to be in shape, be attractive and have an extremely awesome body, but they never start anything to reach that goal. They constantly complain about their weight and how they can find clothes that fit, and that they feel so depressed about how they look. The problem is they can never get anything going, it’s always “I’ll start on Monday” or “I’ll start my diet in two weeks”, but when the time comes they have better things  to do. If you want to make changes to your health and appearance you cannot fall into the trap of tomorrow. You’ll be getting heavier and heavier and your self esteemwill continue to dwindle down.
3. The Follower- Followers allow others to influence them into doing things outside of their best interests. Instead of them worrying about disappointing themselves, they are more worried about what someone will say about them if they don’t follow the crowd. You must be resilient in accomplishing your fitness goals despite what others think. If anybody pressures you into falling off the wagon, they obviously are trying to sabotage you into being overweight and out of shape just like they are. STAY AWAY from saboteurs who want to see others fail.
4. The Sometimer- The sometimer is totally motivated to start exercise program for all of but two seconds, then they suddenly become disinterested in anything that has to do with fitness. This hot-cold behavior will leave you frustrated, overweight, and just plain sad over time. Find ways to stay motivated and perservere through any of life’s struggles.
5. The Needy- Needy people can never do things on their own. They always need someone to workout with, and to eat healthy with. As soon as their buddy gives up so do they. They will use the excuse that they don’t have a workout partner as a reason why they are overweight, but you’re not getting in shape for social reasons are you? If you depend on your friends you are in for a tough ride. Find your own internal motivation to continue and if your friend decides they want to give up then that’s fine, you’ll just look that much better when you hang around them. Always stay strong.
