The Most Underrated Approach to Training and Consistency of All Time?

You missed Monday’s workout. It happens.

I get it – it’s not ideal, and you’re slightly disappointed in yourself.

Again, it happens.

But then you miss Wednesday’s workout. Perhaps you usually train in the mornings, but you slept through your alarm. Or maybe you train after work, but meetings went late into the evening.

Now the whole week is a bust. You’ve missed two out of your three workouts, and at this point, you might as well just skip the rest of the week and start fresh on Monday.

Right?

Have you ever forgotten to brush your teeth before going to bed? Heck, maybe you even forgot to brush them the next morning, too.

At this point, you probably just decided to skip brushing your teeth for the rest of the week. Might as well start brushing them again next week.

You get it.

It’s true – consistency is the foundation of progress. After all, the greatest programming and technique don’t mean a thing if you’re not . . . you know . . . using them.

But you’re not going to let a missed session or two be a bigger situation than it actually is.

You forgot to brush your teeth last night? Do it tomorrow morning and move on with life.

You missed your last workout? Get in the gym today and move on with life.

Be a person. Brush your teeth. Train.

Only molehills here. No mountains allowed.

As always, we hope this helps you get stronger and live better.
