Comments on: Part III – How To Stop Making B*ullshit Excuses http://www.gymjunkies.com/motivation-tips/ Workout routines, video tutorials and fitness articles that produce results Wed, 28 Jul 2010 22:41:29 -0600 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.8.6 hourly 1 By: Callie http://www.gymjunkies.com/motivation-tips/comment-page-1/#comment-2334 Callie Mon, 18 May 2009 23:48:15 +0000 http://www.gymjunkies.com/?p=1437#comment-2334 Hey Vic great post. It's so true that everyone is their own worst enemy. I tell my clients to schedule their workouts just like an appointment because they are just as important. Creating the specific goals is an awesome idea because it gives people excellent focus and drive toward the goal at stake. I find people think that exercise is a means to an end until the next best thing comes along. It is up to us as fitness experts to change their way of thinking and make exercise and fitness a normal part of everyday life. It's so motivating to read these ideas and just take serious action, and get people to follow your lead! Great job. Hey Vic great post. It’s so true that everyone is their own worst enemy.

I know now from experience which of your posts require a calm frame of mind and some time to chew over the wealth of good common sense advice you give! I too loved the short cut comment. No one seems to want to work on their bodies and relationships any more! This came in my inbox a few days ago but I deliberately put it aside so I could read it peacefully.

So I am going to go out there and say I am looking to lose another 3.9kg (~9lbs) and lose another 6cm (~2.5inches) off the stomach. Another goal is to build muscle and lean mass but the above two goals are the most important over the next 31 days. I am aiming to bust those goals real quick! Man am I up for this! Jason Hi Vic,

Tomorrow is Rutgersfest [basically a giant campuswide party with a concert, fun, games, food, and booze]. Its gonna be a bad way to kick it the challenge off since, to be completely honest, I'm not willing to sacrifice the event of the year, but I'm definitely gonna hit it hard from then on. Can't wait til tomorrow man! Vic,

Being somewhat computer illiterate I wonder if it is some other security feature I am using that doesn't operate on IE? I have friends set up my computer so I really don't know what might be the source of the problem. Thanks again! I’m on a PC.

I was unable to sign up using my Mozilla browser. I never saw the sign up links you kept noting were "below" and finally realized the problem. I had to dig out my dusty old Internet Exploder and easily found the sign up there. Am I the only one using Mozilla Firefox??? I can't wait to get started with the 31 day challenge. Hopefully it will be long enough to allow me to develop a few new good habits to keep with me! Thanks!!! Just a heads up. I was unable to sign up using my Mozilla browser.
