✨How is that working for you?
👉🎙Swipe to listen!
I love this question so much because it makes you stop and really think about your behaviors.
Every single day people tell me, “I eat SO healthy and I workout, but I’m not getting any results.”
My response, “How is that working for you?”
This isn’t a condescending tone, but rather a reflective, honest question.
precisionnutrition describes this phrase as, “The 5 Most Powerful Words in Coaching.”
It truly IS powerful because it makes you dig deeper to find the solution that works for YOU instead of just going through the motions of what someone else tells you to do or just blindly trying a new diet or workout plan.
Perhaps the way you’re eating is generally healthy, but maybe it’s not the fuel that your body is needing for your intended result.
Maybe the workouts are you’re doing are great workouts, but they aren’t aligned with what you want to achieve.
There are so many other factors to consider: sleep, stress, hormones, and so on that could impact your results even behind the food and exercise.
There are lots of things that CAN work, but it’s about figuring out what YOU need as an individual.
So, when you zoom out and ask yourself, “How is my current routine working for me?” it can help shed light on some areas that may need some adjustments.
If you’ve been consistent (think weeks or months over time, not 2 days), and are not seeing the results you want, it could be time for a pivot.
✔️Think one habit at a time and gentle adjustments over all or nothing, hardcore approaches. That will make the process more enjoyable, realistic, and lasting!
💛Remember to give yourself grace and patience as you allow yourself to figure out what works best for your body. You are worth the wait!
