The New Method: Lifestyle Fitness Training and Coaching

Written by John Allen Mollenhauer "JAM" on June 28, 2007 – 8:32 am

What does all this mean to you?

What’s the difference between Lifestyle Training, Lifestyle Coaching, Lifestyle Fitness Coaching and traditional weight loss programs, diet programs and fitness training? 

I’ve been in and around the health and fitness industry, for over 20 years and I can tell you this… there’s a big difference. Moreover, that difference represents a fundamental mindset shift for both an industry and countless millions of people.

Finally, the subject of lifestyle is center stage. It’s no longer just about losing weight, it’s about what’s going to help you get truly well, healthy and able, to perform at the level you want and need to succeed. It’s about quality of life. It’s also, about what you want to accomplish in your life and business without having to sacrifice your health and fitness in the process.

Expansive to say the least, the reason why is simple. Like an amateur or professional athlete where health and fitness is a big part of their ability to perform well in their competitive sport which is a central part of their life and business, being well, staying healthy (energetic and fit) and being able to perform at a high level is the same for you. You may not be a competitive athlete, or even a fitness enthusiast, but still it’s all about what you’re up to in life and your quality of life. It’s the same for you as it is for athletes. We all need to take care of ourselves at high levels if we’re going to thrive today.

Health and fitness is not the goal! Neither is weight loss which is neither normal nor natural, but the effect of a lifestyle gone awry, off-course and downhill.

Today, we are realizing that we need lifestyle training, lifestyle fitness training and lifestyle coaching to help us live better at every age. If we don’t, the pace of modern day society and all the confusing, overwhelming, and exhausting influences we face, can easily wear us down. It’s about setting your lifestyle up for success, so you can thrive despite the relentless demand on your time and energy.

When you have wellness, which requires that you address your life situation, along with all of the core essential elements of taking care of your body, now we’re talking "solution". When you have the right perspective on taking care of yourself and it’s no longer "about" weight loss and lowering cholesterol and reducing the risk for disease, it becomes "about" your health AND success. When it’s about your health AND success, you’ll find you’ll want to to improve your lifestyle to look, feel and perform better and succeed at a much higher level.

Now that’s exciting. That’s Performance Lifestyle. 

Weight loss, while important for many people for a variety of reasons, is not exciting. I mean, do you wake up excited to lose weight? Do you wake up excited to exercise to lose weight? Probably no on both accounts. The reason why is simple, this is not what it’s about!! The diet, weight and fitness industries have turned it into this, but this is not what it’s about.

I doesn’t matter how overweight you are right now… weight loss is not your goal. It’s not even a real goal it’s an objective you have in your life so that you can accomplish something else, and it’s not going to happen healthfully and successfully or dissipate as something you even have to focus your attention on in your life until you get lifestyle training and coaching to deal with the real causes of your problem.

We all need lifestyle training and coaching today because we’re no longer living with natural influences in our lives. We’re required to thrive today in modern day environment that that is overwhelming and exhausting and promotes the overweight condition predictably.  The shift to lifestyle Fitness Training and Lifestyle Coaching is essential because it helps you avoid the causes and deal with the real situation not merely the symptoms and enjoy your life.

$60 billion dollars spend on diet and exercise programs is only making a small dent in the problem. Check out www.PerformanceLifestyle.com/obesitytrends. Statistics don’t like. This shift is long over due. It’s time for a real solution. It’s why I created Performance Lifestyle Solutions. To finally deal with the real situation of our modern day lives. It’s no longer about body transformation on it’s own. Body transformation is the result of a succesful lifestyle.

What you may not know though is that few traditional fitness trainers truly understand lifestyle, how to train and coach around it. There’s allot of old methodology today, wrapped up in new terminology. In other words, the same ole’ eat less and exercise more diet and workout routines are passing off as lifestyle coaching and this is far from lifestyle coaching.

Lifestyle is about how you live (work etc). At the core it’s about how you manage, spend and recuperate your energy, the quality of the food you eat and your activity levels to look, feel and perform better and achieve your goals in life and business.

It will change your life and body forever.
