WHY MOST FITNESS PLANS DON'T WORK... AND WHAT DOES
"Getting Daily Exercise Suddenly Became Easy, Even Though My Life Demands Had Not Changed..."
How to Get Regular Exercise Even If You're Already Overbooked And Every Plan You've Tried Has Failed
The REAL Problem
We've all tried to shoehorn exercise into our complicated lives, or to "pile it on."
Which didn't work.
So we looked to productivity and time-management solutions...
Sought motivation and inspiration...
Cycled through off-the-shelf programs and subscriptions...
Which didn't work.
So we judged ourselves harshly, doubting our self-discipline and character.
Which doesn't work AND isn't true.
Here's the real problem...
Most of what we've been told about exercise planning is wrong.
The tired old conventional model of assessment, standard exercises, habit building, and accountability just doesn't work for most people.
Let's look at why that's the case, and what DOES work.
Why Most Fitness Plans Don't Work
Most plans don't work because they set up a fight between the plan and your life as it actually is.
You're supposed to adapt your life to the plan, somehow making it work.
But in a fight between your fitness plan and your life, life ALWAYS wins.
You start with best intentions and renewed enthusiasm.
Then there's a problem at work. Kids get out of school. Aging parents require care. Best friend has a crisis. Sickness, injury, home repairs...
And there's a gap.
Then it seems harder to get restarted than it was to get started in the first place.
The problem isn't your life. Life ALWAYS happens that way.
The problem is your plan.
What DOES Work
Here's the truth that most in the fitness industry don't want to acknowledge...
There is no perfect fitness plan "out there" for you.
But there is a simple way to make your perfect plan.
Your perfect plan consists of effective activities that fit YOUR lifestyle.
Not someone else's life, or an idealized "someday" version of your life.
It's a plan based upon your unique needs, abilities, lifestyle, and preferences.
One you'll actually do day-in and day-out with ease and enjoyment.
One that works for you, even on the worst day of your worst week.
One that doesn't require willpower, self-discipline, or accountability to sustain.
Your Perpetual Plan.
My Struggle to Get Fit & Healthy
I'm Delmar Davis—wellness coach, fitness trainer, clinical massage therapist, and founder of End the Fight to Get Fit.
I struggled with my health in my 30s while raising a young family, trying to get ahead at a stressful job, going back to school and starting a business and still playing some music on the side.
And I got sick with an autoimmune disorder. At my worst, I couldn't walk up a set of stairs without having to rest.
I knew I needed regular exercise to get well. But I couldn't make it work in my complicated life of real-world demands.
So I studied everything I could find on “exercise compliance and adherence."
I studied the personal fitness training content from the major certifying organizations...
Which turned out to be a study of the same old approach that doesn't work for most people.
Then I started talking to Perpetual Exercisers.
Perpetual Exercisers
Perpetual Exercisers are regular folks at all ages and stages of life who exercise pretty much every day with a sense of ease.
They are like those mythical perpetual motion machines that get cranked up once, then run forever.
Now here's an interesting thing...
Perpetual Exercisers don't have different schedules from those who struggle with consistency.
Or a different kind of job. Or different family responsibilities. Or a different number of hours in the day.
They just have a different way of thinking about exercise planning.
So I reverse-engineered their system.
And it worked. It was the simplest thing, once I saw it.
I've exercised almost every day for nearly two decades without requiring willpower, self-discipline, or accountability.
I enjoy amazing energy and vitality that allows me to be, do, and have what is most important and precious to me.
Getting daily exercise became easy, even though my life demands had not changed.
Your Perpetual Fitness Plan
I would like to share with you this simple process for making a fitness plan that works in your life, exactly as it is.
Your Perpetual Plan consists of what YOU like to do, what YOU want to bring about, what's in YOUR way, and how to fit it into YOUR life.
Once you've got the hang of these 4 simple steps, making or updating your plan takes only minutes.
I have started from scratch with clients and created a complete personalized adaptive plan in a single session using this framework.
You can stop chasing fitness fads, hacks, shortcuts, and the same old "what doesn't work" conventions.
You can end the start-and-stop cycle of enthusiasm and frustration.
You can end the resolutions, self-judgments, “gonnas” and “shoulds.”
Here is how you can get my guides, templates, suggestions, and examples to easily make your own Perpetual Fitness Plan...
