These Three Things Will Kill Your Gym Results

Gym FailI’ve been in the fitness industry for ten years now and I’vel earned a lot, un-learned a lot, and I am still learning.

But there are certain things that I believe will sabotage your results at the gym — besides that bacon double-cheeseburger.

I captured these three big no-no’s in a series for US News & World Report. Here are all three installations:

1. DOING TOO MUCH

2. DOING TOO LITTLE

3. DOING STUPID THINGS

New Three-Part Exercise Series for U.S. News & World Report (Day Three)

Gym FailCheck out the final installment, Part 3, of my new three-part series for U.S. News & World Report: “Are You Guilty of These Gym Results Wreckers?”

Yesterday’s post covered doing too little at the gym…but that doesn’t necessarily mean skimping on your workout; it may even include some of the high intensity interval training we’ve all grown to love and *cough* Crossfit *cough*.

Today, as if the gif wasn’t enough of a hint, it’s doing stupid things.

New Three-Part Exercise Series for U.S. News & World Report (Day Two)

Gym FailCheck out Part 2 of my new three-part series I am writing for U.S. News & World Report: “Are You Guilty of These Gym Results Wreckers?”

Yesterday’s post covered doing too much at the gym (sound like someone you know?) :)

Today’s focus swings entirely to the polar opposite: Doing too little.

I think it might surprise a few folks, from those who do high intensity interval training to the cardio bunnies on the ellipticals.
