Imagine two men named Ian and Sam who each work the same hours at the same job. Each is well-compensated and earns the same high salary.
However, the men use their money differently. Ian invests a significant amount of his paychecks. Sam spends all of his paychecks and invests nothing.
What would happen? In a short period of time, their bank accounts would look quite different- even though they worked equally hard and earned the same amount.
What does this have to do with fitness?
Your workouts are like your paycheck. They are what you earn.
Your habits outside of your workouts are like your investments and expenses. They are what you invest or spend.
A consistent, well-designed workout program is a great starting point, but it’s not enough.
You also need to invest your workouts by eating clean, cutting back on junk food and alcohol, and getting at least seven hours of quality sleep each night.
If you aren’t doing that, then you are spending your workouts. Progress will come slowly or not at all, no matter how often or how hard you train.
You don’t need to be perfect with nutrition and sleep, just like you don’t need to invest every single dollar that you earn.
However, the more that you invest your workouts, the faster you will make progress and the bigger your health and fitness bank account will become.
