Eliminate the key mindset mistake that ruins fitness progress

Always exercise responsibly and safely. Ideally under the guidance of a trained fitness and/or medical professional, who can match the exercise or sports regimen to your present level of fitness.

If getting fit is one of your goals, handling your mindset is as crucial as committing to your workouts. And the biggest mindset fail is expecting perfection from your routine. It can be an intense barrier to get started or keep going, and an equally brutal factor in seeking signs of progress.

Just remember:

• perfection is impossible to attain
• perfection is unnecessary to meet your goals

As long as you don’t give up and keep going, you will hit your goals eventually. The timeline should never be a reason to beat yourself up or get discouraged. Aim for consistent progress, rather than perfection.
