276. The work behind the workout

from Help Me Understand · host JK McLeod

Most people think their results should match the hours they spend in the gym.In this episode, Coach JK introduces different a way to look at your effort: a ratio between time spent working out and time spent supporting that work. The gym is only part of the equation. The systems behind it are what determine whether you maintain, stall, or actually make progress.JK breaks down the difference between operating in maintenance mode versus a focused goal season, and why your expectations need to match your preparation. If you’ve ever felt like you’re “doing a lot” but not seeing the return, this perspective will help you see where the disconnect might be.Audit the ratio. The answer is probably there.-------Instagram: @coachJKmcleodEmail: [email protected]
