In this episode of Performance Bites, I break down the biggest reasons people fall short of their training and fitness goals and how to overcome them. I talk about why having a structured training plan matters more than just “working out,” the importance of consistency, and how the SAID principle (Specific Adaptations to Imposed Demands) drives real progress. I also dive into the balance between general and specific physical preparation, the role of recovery, and why patience and long-term commitment are key for lasting results.
Key Takeaways:
A structured plan and clear goals make all the difference.
Inconsistency is one of the biggest progress-killers.
Small, consistent efforts compound into big results.
The SAID principle shows that specific training creates specific outcomes.
Having a “map” for training keeps me focused and accountable.
Recovery is essential for growth and adaptation.
General preparation builds the base for specific training.
Real results take patience, consistency, and time.
