Hello and welcome to Tactical Tuesdays on the Chris Terrell podcast.

You are more than likely experiencing progress in all sorts of areas of your life, but you are completely blinded to it.

You have no idea that you're doing it. And in this week's episode of Tactical Tuesday,

I wanted to give you some ways that you can create awareness to all the areas of progress

that you're achieving. Because you probably have blinders on. You probably aren't even seeing it. A,

because you only are looking at the scale, but B, because you're not out there creating the awareness

around things. Let's talk about movement specifically as something you should be creating

awareness to and having ways of tracking your movement in your life.

We often hyper-focus on calories because it's very easy to track.

You can look at the caloric value of food, you can put it into a fitness tracker, and you can

see and monitor your calories.

Well, how do you do the same thing with your movement in your life?

How do you make sure that you are generating more movement?

How do you make sure you are sustaining what you have been doing?

And it's very important that you can answer those questions.

It's important because if you do the same thing over and over and over again,

you're going to have diminishing returns.

Hypothetically, you start your weight loss journey and you decided your,

your foray into exercise is going to be going on a one mile walk. So you go on it, you're like, that's about 22 minutes, and you decide, all right, I'm going to keep, I'm going to keep doing it. And then you keep doing it at 22 minutes. And you're never really getting any faster. You're just sort of sauntering along, doing the exact same walk, and about the exact same amount of time. At first, you'll burn some decent calories. However, as you do it more and more,

your body's going to start getting more and more efficient at doing it, and you will actually

be burning less calories than when you started. You've got to change things up from time to time,

and you need to be pushing, stressing, and challenging yourself
