Are You Wasting Your Time?
You may be focusing on exercise when you should be focusing on food.
You are focusing on intense cardio when you should be focusing on sleep.
You are focusing on what new super sexy workout equipment or new program to do but you should be focusing on managing stress.
It isn't that exercise, cardio or having a structured plan aren't important. But take building a house for example. It's like having the wood, roofing, appliances, doors, etc. without having workers to build the house. The materials themselves are useless unless you have the means and workers to put it together or in motion.
So yes.
Focus on getting proper sleep as much your workout for the day.
Have a plan for your meals and food and also do your cardio.
Manage your stress with massage, a walk, or by turning off FOXNews, CNN and also be mindful of the program you follow to shape your body.
ALL of it has equal importance and I can promise you if you are spending all your time maximizing one and neglecting others, you will not see the sustained progress you are aiming for.
