Whenever you make a positive change in your life, you (probably subconsciously) go through these "5 Stages of Change:"

(sometimes called the “Transtheoretical Model”)

Precontemplation
Contemplation
Preparation (Determination)
Action
Maintenance

(Relax, I know you don't have time right now for fancy Psychology)

Real quick - here’s what each step really means …

Precontemplation:
"This couch sure is comfy. Please pass me more dip and chips; it’s too much work for me to get up."

Contemplation
"My annoying co-workers say I should eat a little better. Please pass me the lo-cal dip and baked chips."

Preparation (Determination)
“Uh, oh - my jeans seem a little snug. Where’s Stephen Holt’s phone number again? I might think about possibly considering calling him some nebulous time in the future, I guess -- maybe.”

Action
”I'm so glad I called. I’m loving Stephen’s No-Risk, No-Pressure free trial. I’ve learned so much and I’m already feeling better. And everyone’s so nice and helpful there.”

Maintenance
”I love it at 29 Again Custom Fitness in Timonium, MD. I’m so glad I called. No wonder so many clients have been there as long as 12 years!"

It all starts with a little introspection (like anything else truly important in your life). What stage are you at right now?

It may sound really good and may even “work“– but only to a barely discernible degree and with a huge expenditure of your valuable time. Don’t waste your time with isolated spot reduction exercises. Compound exercises (that’s using multiple joints) are far more efficient and effective. Here's proof ... Experimenters asked one group of women to do upper body exercises only while another group did lower body exercises only. Both groups of women lost fat in the same pattern regardless of what exercises they did. Where you gain fat - and where you
