Focusing on small inconsequential things is an intentional distraction from what needs to be done to reach our fitness goals. People become embroiled in questions like “What’s the best time of day to work out?” or “What protein powder tastes the best?” which reveal these people are resistant to simply buckling down and doing what needs to be done. Online, silly distracting arguments on the subject of fitness rage on even among people who don’t even work out.
The formula is simple: working out regularly with proper form and focused intensity and eating nutritionally are all one has to do to make a very significant change in one’s physique.
But as humans are wont to do, people take a simple yet uncomfortable set of criteria such as this and complicate it needlessly with minutiae and mindless details to distract from the fact they’re rejecting what really needs to be done.
If you are not progressing the way you’d like it is due to improper form and lack of intensity. If you can’t see your abs you need to lose fat. Simple. Uncomplicated. Reasonable. Circling around the issue with excuses and denials obviously gets people nowhere. Get offline and get down on the floor to count off as many pushups as you can manage. Install a chin-up/pull up bar in your doorway and every time you get the urge to sound off, or worse, engage with others sounding off, get up and crank out 10 reps instead.
Direct your energy in productive ways. You’ll get out of it what you put into it.
