Have you embarked on a fat loss journey and have clear goals with a set timeline? Then you might be using a fat loss rate to help determine what your weekly goals are. This is an excellent idea and something that I do with all my clients. One of the problems that can come up is when you aren't necessarily hitting your weekly goals for fat loss, but you're still losing weight.

Let's discuss something that is near and dear to me. Since I myself have had a few back issues over the past few months (I'm 100% now!)

When we look at adding a new habit into our life there are many issues that people have: How long will it take to become automatic? How many times do I need to practice this habit for? What's the best way to form a new habit? These are all great questions, and I want to address them all in this short video for you. You'll be surprised what it really takes to form a new habit and make it automatic!

Goal setting is great! But the more I research, look at my clients results, and self-reflect the more I am leaning towards a more systematic approach rather than focussing primarily on goals. I didn't mention this in the video, but what really opened my eyes to the method of having systems in place was during my never ending Jiu Jitsu journey. I began studying systems, recording my rolls, seeing what I was doing right, and what I was doing wrong. Then making alterations to my systems to refine it and make it more effective. This did wonders for my jiu jitsu game and has catapulted my learning and retention. But in this video I'll be covering how we can use systems to help propel you towards reaching your goals, and…
