Are You Insane?





Albert Einstein defined insanity as doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results. The following is a check list to see if you are indeed insane :)

Do you do 30-60 minutes of steady state aerobics and wonder why aren’t losing fat?
__Yes __No

Do you read a magazine or talk on your cell phone while you are on the treadmill?
__Yes __No

Are you trying to lose body fat and drink a sports drink while you are on the treadmill?
__Yes __No

Do you still do 4 sets of flat, incline and decline bench press and wonder why you are not getting stronger?
__Yes __No

Are you an athlete splitting your workouts into body parts? Ex. Mon: Chest, Tues: Back, Wed: Legs, Thurs: Arms, etc…
__Yes __No

Do you have a 40 inch gut and split you workouts into body parts?
__Yes __No

Do you skip breakfast and wonder why you are still fat?
__Yes __No

Do you eat the old “3 square meals a day” and wonder why you are still fat?
__Yes __No

Do you wait until you are hungry (and even longer) and wonder why you are still fat?
__Yes __No

Do you do you do crunches to lose belly fat?
__Yes __No




Bottom line is: If you are not getting the results you want, CHANGE what you are doing! Stop eating like crap, kick up the intensity on you energy system work (cardio), and get on a different lifting program. Mike Boyle frequently uses the quote, “The best program is the one you are not on”. I couldn’t agree more.
