There are many ways to produce fat loss, build muscle and improve metabolic health.

In fact, I'd go as far as saying almost ALL the ways you see people talk about online can be effective.

And so when evaluating different methods, asking “does it work?” isn't a very good question.

It probably does "work"!

So what?

To use some extreme examples to illustrate the point, you could produce lots of fat loss with:

1) This "one simple trick" of... not eating food for a week, a month or... if you need to lose as much weight as Angus Barbieri needed to... a whole year!

2) A commitment to basically never sit or lie down other than to sleep, and to walk for, say, 6 or 8 hours a day, every day.

Both of these extreme strategies do work.

But again, who cares.

Are YOU ever going to engage in such extreme methods?

Probably not, right?

All of this to say, something I've learned coaching more than 1500 men and women over the last 10 years is...

The smarter way to think about weight loss, muscle-building and generally reclaiming one's health is to start with constraints.

How much free time do you actually have to invest into your health? And of that free time, how much of it are you genuinely willing and able to invest? How much of your free time are you willing to take AWAY from your hobbies, your children, your spouse, your aging parents, your grand children, whatever the case may be...

In order to produce (and SUSTAIN!) your desired results.

That kind of puts things in perspective, right?

Time isn't the only factor, but in my experience it's BY FAR the biggest factor.

Because let's face it, if you, against your better judgment, get into a path that eats up 4, 6, 8, 12 hours of your time every week...

And you are not extraordinarily passionate about it...

What are the odds you will do this for more than a few months?

Pretty close to zero, in my experience.

There are other reasons, other than time, that can prevent someone from getting and staying lean and fit.

But if the proposed strategy requires more time than is available, than there's no point discussing other details...

We already know it's not going to work long-term.

And so on that note, a friendly reminder that I have a 1-on-1 coaching practice where I work with people from all over the world.

Everything is fully customized to your real-life situation. No dogma.

And since I've been talking about time, let me share what I require:

1 hour per week, broken down into 2 short sessions taking 25-30 minutes each. No gym requirement, no required ingredients on the nutrition front.

If you want to explore what working together would look like...

Not only to produce short-term results...

Like this client who has been losing about 10 pounds per month for 6 months straight...

But to partner with me to make this the LAST body transformation you'll need to take control of your health, lose the excess fat you've been carrying, build muscle, increase your energy levels...

And give you the confidence and clarity to manager your metabolic health in minutes, not hours, per week, for the rest of your life.
