strength training<\/a>. That includes two sets of each exercise, and full-body workouts thrice a week. We should add reps or weights every week and work out for 30 to 40 minutes.<\/p>\n3. Step automation<\/p>\n
When trying to lose weight, cardio is not the way to go, as any cardio that we do to lose weight needs to be kept up to keep the weight off for good. Instead, we should try and automate our steps.<\/p>\n
This includes keeping a walking pad under our standing desk, and taking meetings, listening to podcasts and watching videos while walking. Such low-intensity movement burns fat, relieves stress, and keeps energy high. This lowers the chances of stress eating at odd hours.<\/p>\n
4. Tracking KPI’s<\/p>\n
If we do not track our key performance indicators when it comes to fitness, we are relying on guesswork, which is likely inaccurate. However, many people also track a lot and then quit. According to Dan, two things need to be tracked:<\/p>\n
Daily scale weight judged by weekly averages<\/p>\n
Waist measurement once a week<\/p>\n
\u201cWeight can lie short-term. The waist tells the truth,\u201d noted Dan.<\/p>\n
5. Identity upgrade<\/p>\n
According to Dan, it is not enough to just have goals, but to create a new identity. To do so, he suggested picking three non-negotiables that can be performed by an individual on their worst week, not their best. Taking that as the floor, one should build on it.<\/p>\n
\u201cYou transform by stopping reliance on motivation and starting reliance on systems,\u201d shared Dan. \u201cYour job is not to be extreme. Your job is to be consistent.\u201d<\/p>\n
