The Elite Pod

Today, Joaquin, Lilli, and Felix talk about staying active during the holidays, whether you are traveling home, going on vacation, or staying home but not wanting to miss out on leg day!

Welcome back for part two of Bobby's mindset story! Joaquin and Bobby sit down and talk about his story after beating cancer and his journey with Elite Fitness!  #Fuckcancer by Robert Flores is a raw, graphic, and occasionally funny first-hand account of how Robert beat stage four cancer. Robert's blog of his daily cancer treatments was turned into a book to help spread awareness to the male, Latino community of colorectal cancer. Men rarely speak of very personal events in their life. Robert lifts the veil to help anyone that faces cancer treatment. We are giving away a copy of Bobby's book!

Fitness tracking is about the "quantified self." In other words, it's about measuring your performance and stats throughout the day as you train and go through your usual activities. This means things like your steps taken, your heart rate, your calories burned, your temperature, your stress levels, and more. All this information can be combined to create a complete picture of your health. You can then use that information to guide your future training, see where your weaknesses lie and hope to improve your well-being further.

Setting fitness goals is an essential part of transforming your health and body. Studies have shown SMART goals aren’t the same as your regular, run-of-the-mill goals. You don’t just say your goal is to become a successful businessman someday. That’s just a generic goal, most people would say.  Setting the right goals play a part in forming positive habits. The power of habits is not to be underestimated. A mature understanding of habits and how to use them is fundamental to becoming a whole and integrated human being. Because your habits are the primary determinant of who you are and who you become. What you do every day will change who you are. The issue is that most people have poor habits that they complete daily without thinking. Your habits will help you to correct some of your subconscious tendencies. So, what do you do?

Patience is a highly underrated virtue… and is of paramount importance when transforming your body and reclaiming your health. Author Joyce Meyer once said, “Patience is not the ability to wait, but the ability to keep a good attitude while waiting.” There is immense wisdom in this quote, and it’s something that every single person should remember when striving for a worthy goal. It’s especially important for those trying to lose weight and get fit. Follow us on Instagram @elitefitnessdowntown Looking to start your fitness journey?
