How To Lose Body Fat Without Failing (Guaranteed)

hey there welcome to today's video it's coach Kyle here from Colossus Fitness today I'm going to be talking to you about how to start a diet and guarantee that you're going to succeed so let's jump right into it so let's get real we have all been through a phase where we likely have maybe not succeeded within a diet or didn't do as well as we were planning and there's a number of reasons why that took place but the first thing I want to start with is more of a bit of a mindset shift and that is simply fully committing and not allowing it to be pushed back for whatever reason so there will always be a reason for you to start tomorrow for you to start next week you know maybe after Memorial Day long weekend you're waiting to start or after a birthday or 4th of July whatever it is start now and go all in you know on our most recent podcast that we actually uploaded today one of my quotes that I shared was go all in or don't bother going at all and I'm so passionate about it because there's nothing worse than just putting in 50% effort you know yes of course 0% effort would be much worse but 50% % is very tough 60% is tough because you're telling yourself you're doing it but you're just not fully actually doing it you know you're putting in the work but you're not going to see the results because of it so when I do something I go all in I fully commit and that's how our clients see such great results and such great change because when they hire us when they take the guest work into the process when they fully commit they're going all in and that's what leads to such incredible results and another quote here is when you're looking for an excuse you'll find one when you look for a reason you'll also find one so my biggest thing here I wanted to give you a bit of a harsh reality is set that goal go all in fully commit and you will see great change you know if you set a goal to lose 20 lbs over the next 12 weeks it's going to happen if you set a kind of a mediocre goal and you just don't fully go in and you know weekends are tough so you don't really log your calories like it's just not going to get you anywhere you're going to kind of give yourself the illusion that you will get somewhere but you actually won't go all in don't push it back you got this and that's tip number one now number two I highly recommend making small changes to Nutrition a lot of people think they have to cut out absolutely everything or their breakfast has to be fully revamped and they can't have this they can't have that it's going to make it very challenging it's not going to be something you can sustain to it's going to be you're going to dread it right so our most successful clients and something we really really recommend is just taking what you're having and make a small change within that so for example let's say you're at500 calories you need to get yourself down to 2,000 instead of having full new meals and just trying all these different things which can also work um I highly recommend just making changes to what you're currently having so for example I have Greek yogurt every single morning when I'm bulking it's around 600 calories when I start to cut I bring it down to just over 400 calories so that's a 200 calorie difference I haven't really changed a whole lot I haven't changed the Habit I've just changed the portions within that and it's such an easy way to make sure that you are simply decreasing your calorie intake but you're not making it a whole different story you're not making it this whole new thing that you can't sustain to and another big tip within this is still enjoying some of your favorite foods within a different variation so for some people they love burgers and unfortunately the macros may just not work for you and it's not something that you'd like to have in terms of your overall diet a great variation would be turkey burgers like there's so many different things and macro hacks essentially instead of a tub of Ben and& Jerry's which could be plus calories Halo top is a great example it's about 300 calories for an entire tub satisfies your sweet tooth there's a lot of different things that you can do to still get you in a calorie deficit to keep you nice and full but to also make it seem like it's more exciting instead of just having broccoli chicken and rice four times a day and hating your life so this is a big hack it makes such a difference it helps you stay in a deficit it helps the longevity of the diet and I highly recommend it now tip number three is not being afraid to ask for help I know so many people people who will consistently struggle over and over again they'll start a diet this week and then 3 months from now they won't unfortunately have gotten there and the truth is that everybody needs help and everybody needs accountability right I used to be guilty of this thinking that I was totally fine doing everything on my own sometimes it's an ego thing some of us guys I know we struggle with it as well and unfortunately that's just not the case you know the best athletes out there they need someone to take the guesswork of the process a lot of times when we're actually emotionally attached atted to the results we make a lot of not so great decisions and that doesn't mean it's it's not because we're a bad person it's just simply because we think we're doing something right because we're emotionally tied but the decisions we make are actually poor so for example a lot of times we'll decrease our calories too quickly uh we'll actually take it way too easy on ourselves some of us are way too hard on ourselves there's a lot of different things happening but the truth is when you actually fully invest you know they say the more you pay the more you pay attention it is so true because you will show up when you put your money where your mouth is when you invest when you hire someone you will just naturally start to put in so much work because you start to think I don't want to waste my money I'm paying for this there's someone who's taking their time to help me out long story short is do not be afraid to ask for help obviously right now with

you and we do have an amazing discount taking place right now for moment morial day so we are happy to help you do not hesitate to reach out and we will be there for you every step of the way and next up this is something I'm passionate about it works for myself especially because I am competitive some of you maybe as well is just creating some sort of challenge or having real Stakes involved so a lot of times I'll be honest we may not want our goals or our actions don't seem like we want our goals as bad as we say that we do however if you get something involved if I were to say Hey listen over the next 12 weeks you have to lose 15 or you'll have to donate this amount of money to whatever it is you have to give your friend $1,000 you will do every single thing it takes to make sure that you don't have to do that you will lose that weight now a lot of times we set goals we kind of forget we set them and we forget them or we just similar to tip number one is we just don't treat it we don't go all in and this is one of the greatest ways to put a fire under your butt to light that fire to make sure that no matter what's happening you do hit your goals and some people may think this is a little too intense they may not think it's for them but I can assure you it really allows you to stay on track and and to give you a little backstory I had a nice little challenge with a friend of mine recently we both wanted a bit of a push we wanted some more accountability so we came up with a challenge now how it worked was we both had to lose 8 lbs within a month if we both did it awesome we both win we've lost 8 lb each we're in a good spot if someone lost less than 8 lb we would have to give the other person $500 so let's say he lost7 lb I lost four I'd owe him $500 so what this did to me and for him as well and I know a lot of people who do stuff like this is it constantly gets you thinking anytime you say hey I'm going to go over calories and you decide to want to do it you think of that challenge you think of the real Stakes you think of what the negatives will be to that will take place anytime that you want to you know just skip out on a workout you think of that and I think this is something that a lot of people need it's just some sort of you know push like that little thing that will force them to do it and once again it's not for everyone some people may become stressed from that they may hate it they may you know just want to rebound afterwards like after this I wanted to keep going because we had our new challenge with all of our clients take place and because what I did was nothing like out of the ordinary was just like I just fully committed and brought my calories down and moved a bit more so it's something I could sustainably do which is also another thing to consider but long story short get some real Stakes involved get something going that will 100% make sure that you stay on track obviously a form of accountability is huge as we've already mentioned and uh yeah this is something that helped me for sure now number five is simply scheduling things out and this means scheduling in how long you're going to be in a deficit allocating for any trips that are going to be taking place starting up some certain clubs that you may be doing you know I am a big planner if you're not a planner if you're someone who's a little bit more reactive like that's fine you can find ways to essentially implement this but I really recommend just every every Sunday taking a look at the calendar for me personally I take a look at where my movement's going to come from are there going to be any days where I may not be able to work out of my regular time I'll send a few messages for you know if I'm going to go mountain biking on a Wednesday I'll message Josh and you know let him know um there's just planning allows you to get ahead of schedule and I think this is where so many people struggle but I find that it is at least for me a lot more relieving knowing what's going to be taking place what the next steps are even for those of you who are doing a Diet phase knowing rough L where when you're going to end instead of saying oh I'll end it when I lose 50 lb allowing yourself to have a start and end date will just allow you to fully commit because you know what time frame you're going to be you know crushing it um and when you're going to start finish and obviously this can change throughout the process but I do find that scheduling allows you to get ahead of the situation you know whenever some certain events come up like being able to get ahead of it and playing for your calories and just navigate it it makes it so much easier and I find a lot of people struggle unfortunately because they kind of just wing it right they're not really sure what the goal is they're not sure what they're eating for the week they don't really do the groceries as much they don't plug in their workouts for the week or do anything cardio wise and they kind of wait until the last minute so this is one of my biggest tips I canot encourage it more and it has helped me and a number of our clients in so many different ways and that's all I've got for today hopefully you enjoy this video hopefully it helps out my mission here is to get more people to start to see success we honestly hear way too many people talk about how they're struggling how they don't you know feel best about their diet they don't feel great in their own skin and it just really bothers me because I know so many people have the right mindset the right work ethic the right potential but not the right accountability and guidance and just not the right plan as well so we will be there for you make sure to fill out that form take all the guess work out of the process but above all hopefully you are enjoying this content we've been uploading two videos every single week without missing and you know make sure to subscribe for more upto-date
