Spend the money to hire one coach and really just do their whole program for eight weeks. It's like, well, I did it for three weeks, kind of, then I added my own stuff on here. None of that. One coach and give them that time. Sticking to a program that has been intelligently designed for you based on really just a few factors is not that much.

a few things, monitoring, progressing, how are we feeling, checking in on subjective, just how do you feel today? How's stuff looking? How's the volume? How's the intensity progressing? Like just really basic stuff.

The vast majority of people are not doing that. If you have done that or have been doing that, maybe now we can go to other steps. But when we hear these things come up, so many times we're like, you have just not stuck to a program for 10 weeks. you you haven't done it. You just have to be consistent with an intelligently designed program.
