The Motivated Mum Podcast

I get it. I understand how much easier it is to pay someone to do a workout program for you.

After all, you're busy, you're tired, + maybe you don't even care about learning how to do it yourself? There's SO much on your plate, and getting to the gym itself is a mission, so why add more on to your plate...

Well, my friend - here's why:

You get the HOW, but not the WHY
It's so easy to modify, change + maybe even slack off a little when it comes to sticking to your program to a tee. Some days you're tired, and what's the harm in doing 10 reps instead of 12 like the plan says - right?

When you understand the WHY behind your sets, reps, weight, rest time and exercises - it gives you the motivation + discipline to see it through + complete your workout, properly.

In the end, you waste MORE time + %
On the surface it may seem like paying a coach to do the work for you is quicker, easier + cheaper. But in reality, it isn't. When you get a program that's made by someone else, you still have to figure out what the exercises are, modify a few things to cater for your injuries, aches and pains and maybe you don't even have the appropriate equipment the plan requires you to use.

*insert time wasted

By learning how to DIY your plans, not only do you create a workout that YOU find fun, but you end up saving time because you do what you know, you cater the plan to what you have available to you and you don't have to go back and forth emailing your coach to figure things out.

Did I mention you can learn how to do it yourself as well as learn proper form, in as little as 60 minutes a week (more on this to come)?

And then there’s the fact that your goals are not always going to be the same
Just as you learn, grow and change, your goals and what’s most important to you is going to ebb and flow as well - that’s a good thing.

Learning how to lose weight is totally different to learning how to build muscle. Training to get fit is also different to training to get strong. And I haven’t even mentioned nutrition yet.

So just when you think you're getting a hang of it, your priorities will likely change and you're back at square one having to relearn the whole process all over again - welcome overwhelm, confusion and more time.
