Struggling to Find Lasting Results? The Problem Is Not You
Have you ever found yourself questioning whether joining another Facebook group or investing in yet another fitness trainer would actually solve all your problems? It's not uncommon to feel skeptical, especially if you've tried countless crash diets, quick fixes, and "Get Abs Fast" challenges without achieving lasting results. You may wonder why you can't simply "get it together."
Well, here's a secret: In 2021, the weight-loss industry was valued at a staggering $224.27 billion. That’s $224,270,000,000! With countless diets, programs, and companies vying for your hard-earned money, many of them overlook the fact that their one-size-fits-all approach may not suit you at all.
You are not the problem. The problem lies in these cookie-cutter programs that perpetuate the cycle of yo-yo dieting. Let’s take a closer look.
The Pitfalls of Cookie-Cutter Programs
With 7.8 billion people on this planet, it’s almost comical that anybody could believe that what works for one person would automatically work for another. And yet, that’s the biggest pitfall of these cookie-cutter programs:
1. One Size Fits All Approach
They employ a “One size fits all” approach, completely disregarding the need for individualization. These programs fail to consider your specific requirements, preferences, medical history, and lifestyle. They treat everyone the same, without acknowledging that each person is different and has unique circumstances that influence their fitness journey.
For example, some people can change their body composition quickly with minimal changes to their diet. Others require a more detailed eating plan in order to achieve the results they desire. Some might have complicated health issues, such as PCOS or hyperthyroidism that make it challenging to lose weight in the same way others can.
Some people love being in the gym for an hour every day, and others would rather be more active doing something they love outdoors such as biking, hiking, or swimming. Others, such as single moms to young kids, simply don’t have the luxury of an hour of alone time every day to complete an uninterrupted workout. Some people might not have access to a gym, or live in a neighborhood safe enough to support a nightly jog around the block.
By neglecting each person’s individual preferences, availability, or resources, these programs instantly set a majority of people up for failure.
2. Unsustainable Practices
Many crash diets and quick-fix programs promise immediate results but fail to provide a sustainable path forward. They rely on restrictive and bland diet plans, overpriced supplements, and unrealistic expectations, ultimately setting you up for disappointment and frustration.
Experts think as many as 80-95% of people who diet end up gaining back the weight they lost, and more. Without sustainable lifestyle habits, the odds are severely stacked against you.
3. Focusing on Symptoms, Not Causes
Cookie-cutter programs seek to only address the symptoms, not the root issues. The cycle of yo-yo dieting, where individuals repeatedly lose weight only to gain it back, is perpetuated by these standardized programs. They rarely address the underlying factors contributing to weight gain, making it difficult for participants to break free from this destructive pattern.
After all, the topic of health, fitness and weight loss is much more nuanced than most people want to admit. There are countless factors that impact your health, ranging from sleep habits, eating disorders, physical conditions, genetics, mental roadblocks, and even suppressed trauma around food. And there are even more things that influence each of those factors, such as income, location, family situation, culture, history, self-perception and belief systems.
Without getting to the root of these issues, these programs only serve to suppress the symptoms for the short-term rather than solve these core issues to give you success in the long run.
If you continue to turn to these programs time and time again, you’re going to remain stuck on that yo-yo diet train, feeling stuck, frustrated, and wondering why you’re such a failure. Eventually, you might even give up entirely, but the only person who will suffer is you.
I’m not saying this to be dramatic, but only to make a point: a majority of the programs out there are not designed to help you.
So, what makes Warrior Fit Academy different? How can you trust that our program will deliver in ways that others can’t? I’m glad you asked. Let me share three real-life examples of how WFA empowered our clients to experience healing, freedom, and permanent transformation once and for all!
The Warrior Fit Academy Difference:
1. Personalized Approach
At Warrior Fit Academy, we prioritize understanding you as an individual. We take the time to learn about your lifestyle, goals, preferences, capabilities and challenges. By tailoring our approach to your specific needs, we create a plan that works for you and increases the chances of long-term success.
Real-life Example: Let me tell you about a client, Staci. Staci knows that cardio is important to her overall health, but she hates cardio training. She gets too bored on treadmills or ellipticals, and she can’t stand running. She also doesn’t have easy access to swimming. In contrast, she loves weight training and can’t get enough of it! Instead of lecturing her on the importance of heart health, her WFA coach programmed a workout that incorporated supersets into her lifting routine, giving her the benefits of cardio without boring her to death on the elliptical. Staci loves her workouts, and is more likely to stick with a program she loves!
2. Sustainable Lifestyle Changes
We believe in promoting healthy habits that can be sustained beyond the duration of the program. Instead of relying on crash diets, we focus on educating you about nutrition, exercise, and mindset, empowering you to make informed choices that are right for you, and helping you develop a healthier relationship with food and fitness.
Real-life Example: Maddie came to WFA desperate. She’d tried everything under the sun, and hadn’t been able to find any lasting results. She began to believe that healthy living just wasn’t “her thing” and nearly wrote herself off as impossible. As her coach dug into her history with dieting, one thing became clear: Maddie had not only tried everything, but had tried everything nearly all at once! She had jumped headfirst into restrictive diets and treated calorie counting like a religion. As a result, she had burned herself out before establishing any positive habits, and quickly gained any weight loss back and then some. This cycle repeated over and over, making her feel like there was something wrong with her. Once her WFA coach began to educate her on nutrition and she focused on shifting her mindset, Maddie came to realize that she wasn’t broken at all. She had simply never had the tools to create healthy, sustainable habits!
3. Supportive Community
Joining Warrior Fit Academy means becoming part of a supportive community. You'll connect with like-minded individuals who understand the challenges you face and are committed to supporting and motivating each other. This network of support plays a vital role in your journey toward lasting change.
Real-life Example: Over the years, I’ve worked with countless women, all of whom are strong, determined, independent powerhouses. Many of them have careers, run a household, and give back to their community. In short, these women are used to carrying a lot, and oftentimes carry it all on their own. That’s why WFA prioritizes accountability calls, supportive communities, and daily support. However, having a community available doesn’t do you any good if you don’t lean into it! One of my clients was so accustomed to doing everything herself, that she didn’t take advantage of our community at first. But when she began to struggle, I challenged her to examine her mindset and why she might be resisting reaching out for help. She was able to work through some of her own obstacles, learn to lean on others for support, and I saw her progress soar through the roof!
