Here’s what my weight loss routine looks like…

1. Any decision that I make, I question if it’s an old Derek decision or new Derek decision. Long lasting weight loss will require you to make better decisions for more than the next couple months, and it will require you to change your self identity from the old you that made the decisions that got you where you’re at, to the new you that makes the decisions to get you where you want to go.

2. I’ve been tracking macros and eating in a deficit. I don’t think you absolutely have to track to lose weight, but I do believe it does have some massive benefits. But if you aren’t tracking I would encourage you to aim for 20-40 grams of protein and 5-10 grams of fibre per meal.

3. I’m currently lifting weights at least 4 days a week, but I typically recommend anything from 3-5 days a week. If you’re not sure what kind of workouts you should be doing I generally find full body workouts to be the most beneficial for most people.

4. Get movement in each day. I’m currently aiming for 10,000+ steps a day (although for anyone wanting to get their steps up I’d say add 1000 and make that a habit, then add 1000 more and so on). On days that I don’t workout I’m making it a priority to do some kind of mobility and if the opportunity arises at any point for playing catch or something along those lines, I’m taking it. Just getting more movement in will be huge for you dropping more pounds.

There’s some other little things I’ve been doing and messing around with to see what makes me feel best, but these are the major things I’m currently focused on that you can to to lean down and feel more confident!

Let’s talk about it…

The kids that I coach football for in the fall rely on habits and routines to help them build a successful team, and honestly, if more adults would just focus on that same principle, they’d more success with their weight loss.

Recognize what habits you need to build to reach your goals, and then prioritize which ones need to come first, then second, and so on, then go and build them.

List out your goals, and what kind of person has hit them, then go and become that person.

Obviously it’s not easy, but if you can just slowly build the habits that allow you to become that new version of yourself, you’ll get there.

You got this.

There’s bigger problems in the world but this has been bugging me…

Those of you that are “fitness influencers” that hop on here to judge others and talk s**t, are going to scare off people from going to the gym when they just see gym rats being judgemental.

You’re lying when you pop into someone’s comments talking s**t and then when they respond say “I’m just holding you accountable bro”

Not everyone needs to or should have their life revolve 100% around fitness. If you want to that’s cool but I’d rather preach balance.

None of this is solely about me, I’ve been seeing some nasty comments around the internet on a ton of other people’s s**t too.

But if you’re pi**ed about the “overweight trainer” and questioning how they have clients, those clients probably weren’t gonna hire you in the first place bro. The same way your clients won’t hire us.

There’s a health problem in North America, and having the option of different people to choose for people that need help is a good thing, because different people will see different value in trainers.

If your page is full of negativity and you’re on here trashing others, do better.

As always, don’t be a dick.

Not much to be said I didn’t say in this video but…

If you believe that a “victim mindset” is recognizing potential problems a person has to actually address it and find a solution rather than just ignoring, I don’t know how to have a conversation with you.

And if you think being a personal trainer is just slapping down a plan and telling your client to “buckle down and push through” when they have legit problems going on, I can’t have a conversation with you.

I’ve said it from the beginning, I became a personal trainer because the gym was an escape for me. It served as a platform for me to find happiness again and I want to help people live better lives.

If you’re looking for a trainer with empathy, that’ll meet you where you at and then challenge you to still find a way to become just a bit better that day, message me.

There’s so much more to it…

Yes, the base idea is “move more and eat less”

But what’s actually going on causing them to struggle with that?

Why are you struggling to get exercise in?

Why are you struggling with your diet?

Is it truly a discipline issue or is it something like food addiction or something else that actually needs to be worked through to give that person a chance?

What’s going on that has gotten the person to where they’re at now and what needs to be done to change it?

Another RYSE Energy Drink review and gotta say, they went off with both protein shakes they recently released.

Definitely prefer the vanilla marshmallow but this one’s great too.

Would recommend picking it up 🏋 Supplement King Beaumont 🏋
