"Are You Making This Huge Weight Loss Mistake?" Review
Introduction
I’ve seen too many of my personal training clients make this mistake, and you probably are too. Stop spinning in place and make this change today.
1. What You’re Looking At
“Torch 800 calories in 60 minutes!” “Congratulations, you just burned 500 calories!” For some women, few things are more motivating than leaving your boot camp or hopping off of the treadmill knowing they just incinerated the caloric equivalent of a Big Mac.
However, paying too much attention to calorie-burn claims, whether on your treadmill display or health club’s website, can seriously sabotage your weight-loss progress. That’s because most fitness trackers, calorie counters, and estimates of calories burned use ridiculously inaccurate methods for measuring calorie burns, often leading you to believe that you torched way more calories than you actually did.
And if you don’t burn more calories than you eat in a given day, you’re not going to lose. You might even gain.
Personal Trainer Wisdom: In an effort to strategically shed weight, many of my personal training clients also rely on machines to estimate calories burned. Unfortunately, as mentioned above, they are dependent on tools that don’t scientifically measure their expenditure (after all, the machines aren’t connected to them). With that said, most people are hanging on to a delicate balance between calories in and an inaccurate measure of calories out… usually a dangerous line for consistent weight loss. Your best bet is to focus on your caloric intake rather than your caloric expenditure (a far easier and more reliable measure).
2. Bad Calorie Math
For example, a new study published in the Journal of Personalized Medicine reveals popular fitness trackers, including the Apple Watch and MIO Alpha 2, can be significantly off in their calorie estimations as often as 93 percent of the time. Each fitness tracker utilizes its own proprietary algorithm to calculate calories burned, according to Stanford Medical Center, which doesn’t always jibe with the individual wearing it, researchers say.
That partly explains why your boot camp is so far off on its “burn 500 calories in 30 minutes” claim: Often, classes come up with caloric burns by simply having an instructor wear a fitness tracker during the class, Rebold says. “Then they take that information and use it to promote that exercise class they’re unfolding at their club,” he explains. The problem is, there is an insane number of intrinsic variables that will always impact how many calories you burn during a given exercise, ranging from your sex, age, weight, to your muscle mass, says Church. In other words, you won’t burn the same number of calories as your 6’2” male instructor. So don’t expect to.
Others classes, meanwhile, refer to average intensity rates from the 2011 Compendium of Physical Activities to estimate calories burned during class, says Tim Church, M.D., Ph.D., professor of preventative medicine at Pennington Biomedical Research Center at Louisiana State University and chief medical officer of ACAP Health, a workplace wellness consulting firm.
However, when it comes to the number of calories that you burn during any given class, exercise intensity is the greatest player. Take your average indoor cycling class as an example: If someone is on a bike pedaling at a faster pace or a higher resistance, they’re going to burn more calories than someone who’s just going through the motions,” he explains. How intensely you’re able to pedal will depend not only on how fit you are, but also factors such as the sleep you got last night and what you ate for breakfast. So while average intensity rates will ring true for a small subset of class-goers, they are going to be ridiculously off for everyone who isn’t “average.”
So, odds are, you’re not burning the 800 calories that exercise class advertised, says Michael Rebold, Ph.D., C.S.C.S., department chair of the integrative exercise science program and assistant professor of integrative exercise science at Hiram College in Ohio. In reality, you may burn anywhere from 600 calories at the low end and 900 calories at the high end, he adds.
Meanwhile, research shows that you can’t depend on those calorie counters on your favorite pieces of cardio equipment, either, according to ABC News. In one oft-cited experiment, University of California - San Francisco’s Human Performance Center pitted the calorie counters of four different cardio machines against a VO2 analyzer. On average, the machines overestimated calories burned by 19 percent. Among the four machines, the elliptical machine was the worst offender, overestimating calories burned by 42 percent. So, for instance, it could say you burned 100 calories when you actually only burned 58.
Personal Trainer Wisdom: This section reminds us of the complicated algorithms of caloric expenditure. It extends beyond the simple math of a machine (even if it is measuring your heart rate). Always ask what the caloric expenditure claim is based on. As explained, it could be based on your instructor or other body types dissimilar to yours.
3. Your No-Math Solution to Weight-Loss
In the end, however, the problem isn’t the calorie-burn totals in and of themselves—it’s using them to calculate exactly how many calories you’ve “earned” or “worked off.”
After all, if you follow the whole, “I just burned 600 calories, so now I can go out and eat 600 calories,” you could easily end up gaining, not losing weight, Rebold says. The more your class, elliptical, or fitness tracker overestimated your caloric expenditure—and the more you depend on those numbers to determine what you do and don’t eat—the more you stand to sabotage your own efforts.
So instead of relying on a likely-inaccurate number to tell you how much you can eat, trust your body’s built-in calorie counter: your hunger cues, recommends Denver-based registered dietitian Kendra Glassman, R.D.
On a scale of one to 10, with one being absolutely starved and 10 being what Glassman calls “Thanksgiving-dinner-full,” eat when you reach a three or four (you feel a tinge of hunger), and stop when you’re at a six (comfortably full).
Personal Trainer Wisdom: Over the last 12 years, I’ve seen personal training clients practically kill themselves to burn as many calories as possible. They wanted to sweat off the weight loss. Unfortunately, you can’t avoid the one thing you need to change the most: Your diet. Believe me when I say that you don’t need to exercise to lose weight (although we need to move daily for optimal health). I chose this article to steer your focus away from unrealistic fitness measures and technological gimmicks. If you’re truly worried about your calories, count your dietary calories instead. If you’re not interested, you may want to reflect on the reasons why.

6 Principles That Will Transform Your Professional Approach
Introduction
While you can easily blame your job or manager for your stressful days, the answer to your success and satisfaction may actually lie in your professional approach. Incorporate these six principles and redefine your business mindset today.
Don't should all over yourself.
Personal Trainer Wisdom: Take action instead. While you SHOULD reflect and carefully assess most situations, you SHOULD not always tell everyone what you SHOULD be doing. Do the statements "I SHOULD go to the gym" or "I SHOULD eat better” show commitment? If you know you SHOULD do it, then why don't you do it? Be mindful of the excuses you make for yourself. You may sink into your mental quicksand if you don't start moving forward.
2. Solve interesting problems.
Personal Trainer Wisdom: No matter your age, nothing stimulates the mind more than solving an interesting problem. It forces you to examine what you've learned and assess what you didn't. These lessons not only give you the blueprint to approach the same future problem, but they will also help you develop the generalizable problem-solving skills to handle unrelated situations. Essentially, it expands your adaptability and knowledge beyond what you already know, reinforcing what you’ve learned.
3. Know when to persist, know when to abandon.
Personal Trainer Wisdom: While I value the ambition to complete a task, I don’t think it should be at any cost. Far too often, we carry on because of our ego... our unwillingness to give up. What if abandoning a project could save you time, effort, and money? While you may have already invested in the effort, it may not be worth the additional loss (especially if it could be better spent elsewhere). On the other hand, there are times when you should persist. No path is perfect, and you will face obstacles. Some challenges require an accessible solution rather than a termination. Fairly evaluate the situation and weigh all your options. Don't forget to seek educated opinions to broaden your perspective.
4. Become less competitive to become more successful.
Personal Trainer Wisdom: Although competitiveness may drive you to great heights, it may also blind you from pursuing the most appropriate path. Not only can it consume your well-being, but it can also distract you from other important parts of your life worth spending time on. While mastery or being the best can be essential, always be mindful of all your needs at a given moment and fairly value what's truly most significant (no matter what anyone else is doing).
5. Be aware of your gut feeling.
Personal Trainer Wisdom: At times, your gut may bark at you when it senses danger or a compromising position. At the same time, it may be signaling something different. Have you ever thought that you might actually be on to something when you're a little afraid...especially in business? It might be an exciting unknown you don't know how to handle, but you should be willing to learn about it. On the other hand, it could be your good sense to switch directions even though you're emotionally invested. Even if you don't know the root of this feeling right away, it's worth examining.
6. Practice your values instead of just professing them.
Personal Trainer Wisdom: Modern translation: Lead by example instead of just expressing endless opinions on social media or to your colleagues. Practice what you preach.

Your Business Plan to Lose Weight (or Achieve Optimal Health)
Introduction
Why do we develop business plans in the corporate and entrepreneur worlds but never for our personal health? If you're looking for a strategic change, consider this simple plan.
Section 1: Your Mission
Personal Trainer Wisdom: If you want to end the cycle of guessing and lack of control, you need to move and choose with intent. Be specific. What is your true, realistic weight loss goal, and what is the objective based on? For example: To maintain a weight of ____ and a body fat of ____ while living a life with intent. Can your mission be summed up in one sentence? Do you have a bigger transformation goal in mind? This is the time to state it clearly. It will steer your approach (and the rest of your plan).
Section 2: Summary of You
Personal Trainer Wisdom: How can you build a solid foundation if you don’t know the material you’re working with? A contractor wouldn’t move forward without this awareness, and you shouldn’t either. Now is the time to become a human scientist and study yourself! Who are you? What are the trends and patterns of you? How would you describe your emotional, mental, and physical selves? What is your approach to fitness? Do you like fitness? Why or why not? What do you prefer to eat? Why? When do you eat? How do you choose your meals? How do you handle stress? What is the relationship between this stress and other areas of your life? Be honest and list all of your attributes, strengths, and weaknesses here.
Section 3: Competitive Analysis Summary
Personal Trainer Wisdom: While your plan should be tailored to your wants and needs, you will need to analyze other weight loss and health plans to understand the full scope of practice. What are the most effective and efficient health models that you’ve researched? Should you reinvent the wheel or adapt a popular, successful plan? How have different body types responded to these theories? This section will not only shape the process you choose but also justify it.
Section 4: Strategy and Obstacles Summary
Personal Trainer Wisdom: Once you have observed yourself and considered the research, it’s time to develop your strategy. You will generally describe the implementation of your plan here. Include the answers to the following questions: How will this strategy reflect your strengths and weaknesses? What boundaries will you develop? How will you implement this plan? Will someone help you? What do you think will be the biggest obstacles to your goal? How will you overcome these obstacles?
Section 5: Specific Implementation
Personal Trainer Wisdom: Given that losing weight or achieving optimal health requires a multifaceted approach, break your strategy into several categories and list specifically what you need to incorporate into your lifestyle. Use this structure as an example:
A. Weight/Body Fat Accountability
-Check weight and body fat when you work out and record it on your phone (app Monitor Your Weight???? or Notes).
-Record what you're eating every day (no calorie count needed).
B. Nutrition
-Limit drinking alcohol to only 2 days per week.
-Print and stick the "Eating Pie Chart" (from this diet article) on your fridge as a reminder of healthy eating habits.
-If you're eating overnight....Eat a small meal before bed and when you first wake up. Post a note on your fridge that says, "You will eat again when you wake up in the morning."
-Eat no more than one meal per day containing meat, dairy, grains, and/or refined sugar.
-Aim for a daily caloric range of 1200-1500 calories.
-Follow the recommendations for this month in the following article: Weight Loss: The Diet Questions You MUST Ask Yourself.
-Minimize caffeine to 2 cups (equals one small mug) of coffee per day.
-Print 1 restaurant menu: Choose a restaurant you love or want to visit and ask someone to help you figure out the best menu items.
C. Exercise
-5-day workout: 3 days strength/2 days cardio
D. Mindset
-Minimize any news content to 5 minutes per day. It will eliminate much of the negativity in your life.
-Embrace new challenges as opportunities to refine your problem-solving ability.
E. Habits/Goals
-Write down 10 personal/professional goals on individual post-it notes and place them on your closet wall or another private place that you'll see at least once per day.
-Set up alerts with positive messages on your phone using the app Simple Routine as reminders of goals and what you're trying to achieve.
F. Social Life
-Choose one new activity or interaction per week to satisfy your curiosity.
-Surround yourself with positive-spirited people daily.
-Seek out at least one person when you need help.
What's missing from your business plan? What categories would you add? Tailor this section to support your mission.
Section 6: Timeline and Milestones
Personal Trainer Wisdom: Once you have decided on your steps of action, you need to develop a timeline. This section is not only crucial for accountability but also reflects on your goals. What is a realistic timeframe to achieve them? What points of this process should serve as milestones? What are your realistic expectations for each of those milestones? How will you adapt this process if you don’t reach your mark?
Section 7: Financial Plan
Personal Trainer Wisdom: A financial plan can be interpreted in many ways. In terms of monetary obligation, the range of money you spend really depends on your interests and the type of help you desire. What will you budget for a new gym, clothes, food, or a personal trainer/fitness class? What areas are you willing to splurge on?
In terms of time, how many minutes will you dedicate to research, diet, meditation, and/or exercise? Within a strict schedule, what are you willing to sacrifice to make room for these endeavors? No matter what you prioritize during this section, you’ll definitely need to determine the actual cost of your mission.

5 Lessons You Need to Incorporate Into Your Life Today
Introduction
Whether you’ve hit a challenging point or want to enhance the path you’re on, you need to incorporate these lessons into your life today.
When you meet a challenge personally or professionally, ask yourself, "How can I simplify this?"
Personal Trainer Wisdom: Surprisingly, the answer to minimizing the stress or demands of any situation could be as easy as simplifying it... stripping it down to the skeleton. We're often too overwhelmed when we analyze irrelevant or insignificant details and chase fruitless paths in circles. Do you genuinely know the foundation of this problem? Which factors are most worth attention to solve it? What information is missing? Returning to the basics may lead to a fundamental answer. Don't move forward until you understand the root/intent of your focus and prioritize the most critical elements.
2. Find what nobody else wants to do and do it.
Personal Trainer Wisdom: When you need to create value for yourself, step forward with pride, bravery, and diligence and do the things that most people avoid. People will notice you among the masses and see you in a different light.
3. Remember that "a problem is a terrible thing to waste." (Peter Diamonds)
Personal Trainer Wisdom: At one point, I avoided problems or approached them with great haste. Why waste these opportunities to learn something new about someone else, your environment, or yourself, though? You will develop generalizable problem-solving skills and foster the mindset and skill set to handle future demands with greater confidence and competence.
4. It's ok to pivot rather than completely give up your dream.
Personal Trainer Wisdom: Have you ever started a book and, by page 100, realized you hate it... But continued reading and finished it anyway? I have (too many times) because I value persistence and resiliency! I will not give up... on anything... ever!!!! Is it always necessary to follow through with every goal or project, though? Do you really need to finish that self-help book when you might find the answer you're looking for in another one (try Redefine Yourself)? While it may seem like a badge of honor always to finish what you start, there are times when your effort is best used elsewhere (especially if the path is stressful or destructive). This couldn't be more applicable to your career or any dream in particular. I learned to pick a path and stick to it until death. Is that what we should do, though? I don't believe we give ourselves enough leniency. At times in our lives, special circumstances necessitate a pivot...especially if you don't feel a sense of purpose or fulfillment. While I understand that you may have already invested a lot into this path (i.e., education, time, money, bragging, etc.), is it worth being miserable? You don't need to give up your dream or career completely. Perhaps you can still teach, but not in a classroom of kids (corporate speaking or presentations). Perhaps you can still practice law, but not in a private firm (state's attorney's office). Your path doesn't need to be linear, but it should move forward productively and happily (why not?). Adjust when needed.
5. Remember that winners fail all of the time.
Personal Trainer Wisdom: We accumulate wisdom through error, and the most successful entrepreneurs fail all the time. Learn from your failures to take the right approach. You never know what that experience will teach you.

3 Tools to Dramatically Improve Your Romantic Relationship
Introduction
Optimal health extends beyond your time in a personal trainer’s studio. If you put extra effort into your relationships, you might be surprised by how your overall well-being improves. Whether your romantic relationship is sound or a struggle, here are 3 tools to dramatically change that dynamic today.
The 5 Love Languages Personal Profile for Couples
Personal Trainer Wisdom: Although you can ambitiously read the book of the same name, I highly recommend taking this free quiz online at 5lovelanguages.com. It will help you identify the love languages (words of affirmation, quality time, receiving gifts, acts of service, and physical touch) that you value the most. Why is this important? If your partner values “acts of service” the most (like making dinner together), it may not matter how many bunches of flowers you buy him or her. Although you value “receiving gifts” the most, it doesn’t mean your partner will too. How often have you heard someone say (or said yourself), “It doesn’t matter what I do, he never appreciates it.” I ask you: Do you really know what he appreciates or values the most? Perhaps, all your partner wants is “physical touch”…a hug to show your continued interest in him. You can see how easily this lack of communication or awareness can compound into many nonsensical arguments.
I recommend that you and your partner individually take this quiz and then discuss your scores. Although you’re not instructed to break down your answers, I strongly suggest you do so. The two of you may share the same answer but may have a completely different mindset approaching the scenario. Essentially, take the guesswork out of the relationship by learning how your partner approaches a scenario and what he or she values most.
2. My Life Story: A Visual Map
Personal Trainer Wisdom: The ‘My Life Story Map’ left a lasting impression on my wife and me before our wedding last year. It helped us recognize the defining moments in our past and understand how they have shaped us. Although we utilized the ‘A Visual Map for Reflecting on My Past’ diagram by Sibyl Towner and Sharon Swing, you can certainly create your own. Basically, you and your partner will draw and write a timeline of your life on separate pieces of paper. At the top and middle of your page, draw a horizontal (parallel) line. On the top line, write the years of your life that correlate with the critical events that you describe on the middle line. The middle line should reflect events, people, places, vocations, avocations, and more. You can record these events above or below this middle line, depending on whether the event is perceived as a positive event (above) or an adverse event (below). As you try to determine the most noteworthy events, ask yourself the following questions: Which events elicited the most significant emotional response? Which events were most responsible for your personal and professional approach today? Which events specifically affected your relationships with others today? When did you feel the most insecure and weak or secure and robust? What were the most significant turning points or decisions that steered your life the most?
You may certainly personalize this timeline however you see fit. Honesty is most important (with yourself and partner). Evaluate how these life occurrences affected you and write that down. For example, my parents’ divorce had a profound effect on my life. Unfortunately, it shaped a negative perspective on relationships for a long time (conflict management, displays of affection, etc). At the same time, while moving after my parents’ divorce was undoubtedly a great challenge at the age of 12, I became more adaptable in several different environments. I became more curious. Think about these long-term effects on my life! I now love travel and feel comfortable exploring and interacting with the unknown world. What events in your life have shaped you? Not only is this a great way to see a timeline of your life on paper, but it is also an opportunity to reflect on what has influenced how you behave, perceive, and generally approach the world. Take this time to learn about yourself while helping your partner understand you.
3. A Hug
Personal Trainer Wisdom: The root of all life is interaction…and nothing is easier or cheaper than a hug! Even if you don’t have the right words, a simple hug could express how you feel. It also shows your vulnerability to your partner as well as physically connecting to him or her.
