Why your routine feels harder than it should – and how to fix it

With fitness trainer Graham Low

- 

A lot of people say they feel like getting fit is harder than it actually should be.

They start with good intentions. A new plan, new routine and full of motivation.

However, then after a couple of weeks it starts to feel like a struggle.

Everything feels like it can be to much effort.

That is usually not because you are lazy or lacking discipline, it is because you are trying to do too much.

People often overcomplicate things when it comes to a fitness programme.

They try to train five or six times a week. They cut out all treats. They follow strict meal plans. They expect every day to be perfect.
