10 REASONSYOU’RE NOT GETTING RESULTSFROM YOUR TRAINING

Do you sometimes feel like you’re doing everything to get results but they’re just not happening?

Or, maybe your training got off to a great start but now you’ve stopped seeing results?

It’s common to lose motivation when you don’t see the results you want. But instead of giving up, you should establish WHY you’re not seeing changes so that you can amend your workouts or diet and continue on your training journey.

Let’s take a look at some of the most common reasons you may not be getting the results you want...

It might seem obvious, but it’s shocking how many people think they’re working out loads, but in reality, they could be working out much more. You don’t need to exercise every day, but you should aim for at least 3-5 times a week to see results.

If you’re struggling to build muscle, chances are you’re not lifting heavy enough and if you’re struggling to burn fat, chances are you’re not burning enough calories.

You may be stronger or fitter than you were when you first started training but now you’re stuck in your comfort zone and don’t find your workouts as challenging as they once were. Whether you lift heavier or increase the intensity of your cardio, results appear when you step out of your comfort zone.

You’re not working out enough

You’re not working hard enough

Getting enough quality sleep is vital when you’re training. It’s the only chance your body gets to repair and recover. It’s also crucial for feeling energised enough to train powerfully the next day. You should aim to get 7-9 hours of quality sleep per night.

Are you doing weights without the right form? Not only is this probably affecting the results you get but it’s also dangerous and risks injury. Having correct form and doing the exercises properly will ensure the muscles you want to target are getting the best workout possible.

Mindset it SO important when it comes to working out. A strong mindset will keep you focused, motivated and determined. It will mean you show up for your workouts and perform to the best of your ability and will also keep you head strong when faced with food cravings and temptation.

If you’re moping about the gym on autopilot without any real desire to be there, you’re not going to see results.

You’re not getting quality sleep

Your form is wrong

Your heads not in it

Depending on your goals, you may need to follow a calorie deficit or calorie surplus diet. Additionally, what you eat matters just as much as how much you eat. Our bodies need a sufficient amount of protein to build muscle. Even if you’re eating within your calorie window, if you’re eating rubbish, your muscles literally won’t be able to repair and build between your workouts.

#3 Your diets off

If you’re not tracking your progress properly (or at all) how can you make a clear assessment of how well your training is going?

There’s so much that can determine why you may or may not be seeing results. Maybe you consumed more calories than usual, burned less calories than usual, lifted heavier than usual or did less reps than usual, etc. For tips on tracking your progress, checkout this blog, here.

Lasting changes don’t happen overnight. So many people get impatient after just a few weeks of training if they’re not where they want to be. If you’re not anywhere near your goal yet, keep going and stay focused on your journey. If you’ve tried everything and are genuinely working hard and eating right, you might need to change the goal or change the goal post - rather than give up completely.

You’re not tracking your progress

You’re not following a programme

You’re too impatient

It’s normal to hit a plateau with your training after a while. Your body gets used to the workouts and simply doesn’t find them challenging enough to result in changes. Try mixing up your training by doing different workouts every few weeks.
