Andy Galpin: 3 Ways to Lose Weight and Gain Muscle (the Fitness Plan You Will ACTUALLY Stick To)

Category two is that structured cardiovascular. Category three was structured strength training stuff. You got to give me one of those days a week. So if we go back to this kind of nurse, lots of physical activity, one to two days a week of that, one to two days a week of something related to strength. We'd be good there.

We changed that scenario up to somebody more like you and I. I was probably not doing a lot of steps throughout the day because we're sitting. You and I are going to have to engineer that back into our lives. So the fitness routine, I don't know anything about how your day is set up. I'm just assuming you're sitting more than that type of person, that avatar.

I would put more structured physical activity in your life. We would maybe do something like a 10-minute walk three times a day. Two times a day. We would maybe, hey, let's add in a walking treadmill.

Maybe let's add in, like we would look for little games that we can, maybe we need to add in one or two days a week of an hour long hike as a part of your structured fitness program to get that back, right? So what we're always doing is, again, assessing the entire nature and saying, those are the three big areas most people have.

And you got to move well within those categories and don't get hurt and never lose your flexibility. And there's more stuff, but categorically, these are the first layers of filters I'm going through and saying, okay, if we have to leave one of these things out, maybe we can, right? So maybe you sit at a desk job, but then you go and you do kickboxing class.

okay, we actually got node two out of there. Maybe now we just put some physical activity in there and put some strength training in there and we're actually, we're okay. We can survive with that, right? That's kind of the best way to think about your lifestyle and think, am I getting any of these three? Great.

And then if, okay, optimal is not realistic to me, then what do I have to do to just kind of get MVP out? And then that's how I go about thinking it.

It's hard to be really good at all three. Yeah. This would go back to quadrant. And we would say, okay, what's the realistic goal? Okay, realistic goal is I'm at five with business. Okay, well then maybe we go, look, he doesn't have time to do three and a half hours of zone two and then do a strength training and then do it. We're going to lose that.

But we're not going to let that be an excuse for never doing it. So next quarter, we're going to come back and you got to pay me back. We're going to go back into it. We're going to now emphasize maybe caloric restriction. We're going to do more movement because it'll burn the same calories and we have more time. And you got to promise me we're going to take business down to four.

Deal. Great. Now you have a window. You're looking at it. You're going, okay, I got this month. You don't have to feel bad about skipping this thing because there's a plan. There's a strategy, right? But then I'm also going to be able to hold you accountable to something that was realistic and making progress. So you don't have to have those balances I talked about all year round.
