Progress:
Progress or gainz is what we expect and can guarantee if an athlete consistently follows the Killer P’s i.e. the process. Just as the image on the right shows each little piece adds up to the bigger picture which for us is gainz!
Step 1:
Walking into the gym and committing to showing up, we suggest, 20 times a month to work hard and put in your best effort all while following the Killer P’s is step one. Plus it’s always better getting through a tough workout with other people right by your side also going through the same workout!
Step 2:
Nutrition! So you started showing up, consistently attending 20+ classes a month and now you feel like your gainz have slowed down or maybe even come to a halt; now it’s time to dial in your nutrition. Now a lot of people see this and they get nervous or think that they have to go on some crazy diet- here’s the secret:
- Prioritize protein intake (chicken, beef, turkey, eggs, cheese, etc.)
- Have some with every meal!
- Make it your goal to eat 800g of fruits/veggies daily
- Any fruits or veggies count, yes, even potatoes!
- Drink a minimum of 100oz of water daily
- Limit your intake of sugary drinks and yes, this includes alcohol!
- Prioritize real, non-processed foods
Step 3:
Sleep!!! This is so crucial to making the progress you want to make! Sleep allows your body to reset, recover, and heal. Sleep is one of the first things to go out the window when we feel like we don’t have enough time to do things but, if you get that sleep you’ll perform so much better!
So what are you waiting for?! Getting moving toward your goals and see all the progress you can make just by following these 3 steps and the Killer P’s!
