The Suffering Never Stops @evilnerdfitness-blog - Tumblr Blog

If I see one more trainer tell a client that “high reps, low weight” is for “toning” or whatever bullshit, I’m going to lose my damn mind.

Same with the next trainer who tells someone, who has no idea what they’re doing, to “tighten their core” without teaching them how to actually tighten their fucking core.

But I just want to get tone though. I don’t want to get bulky ew

Don’t tell me not to weigh myself every day. You should weigh yourself every day, twice a day, and see how much that fucking number changes! See how much your body changes in a day, from morning to night, from Monday to Tuesday. Do it for a week, or a month, or however long it takes for you to realize that a number on a scale doesn’t mean anything.

It doesn’t mean that you can’t work to lose weight, size, inches, body fat, whatever. It means that your progress, your mentality, and your self worth shouldn’t be tied to a number.

Your body is in constant flux; that number is going to change all the time. It doesn’t mean that you’re not working hard, or that you’re not dedicated, or that you lack discipline. It means that you’re a fucking human being.

Weigh yourself every day. Record it. Do it for as long as it takes for you to realize that you can see progress and measure change in what your body can DO, and not just in pounds or inches.
