Improve Your Fitness and Enjoy Your Life
The Four Fitness Protocols

A Guide to Fitness Improvement

Many journeys to fitness improvement start with some form of fitness motivation. What usually happens is that an event or situation triggers the desire to engage in some form of fitness improvement. Unfortunately, in many cases, such events involve health issues, or even worst health emergencies. Disappointingly, unless you convert the initial motivation into lasting commitment, many fitness improvement efforts fail to last much longer after weight loss is accomplished. That means that people regain all, and in some cases, more weight than they originally started with.

To convert the initial fitness improvement motivation into lasting commitment, The Fitness Protocols guide to fitness improvement provides you with critical information and a series of exercises designed to build lasting commitment to fitness improvement. Fitness Protocols takes a balance approach to turning motivation into commitment. The first part involves ensuring you are ready to engage in fitness improvement. The reason for doing that is because many fitness improvement efforts fail prematurely due to lack of readiness. The second part involves ensuring development of a strong level of conviction towards your effort. The Fitness Protocols build conviction by helping you explore the drawbacks and benefits of better fitness.  Ultimately it helps you build a strong case for engaging in fitness improvement thus energizing you to take it on and to sustain your effort. Fitness motivation is critical to success because nothing happens without motivation. Nonetheless, commitment energizes motivation to make it stronger and longer lasting.

Lasting commitment is one of the key aspects that makes The Fitness Protocols guide to lasting weight loss and fitness improvement so unique and effective at making lasting improvement a reality.

Four Consequential Dimensions of Fitness Improvement

Consequences are the positive and negative aspects that can result from your decisions or actions. Other terms used to describe them include after effects, aftermath, and outcomes. There can be both intended and unintended consequences from decisions or actions.

Thinking about, identifying, and evaluating potential consequences is very important in the process of making your decision and building motivational energy to pursue and sustain weight loss and fitness improvement.

Exploring consequences is a key part of the Fitness Protocols’ approach to help you build lasting commitment to weight loss and fitness improvement. The approach involves an exercise enables you to explore consequences thoroughly by looking at them along four key dimensions in the context of the following three key quality of life factors:

  • Fitness/Health
  • Relationships
  • Wealth

The consequential dimensions exploration exercise involves responding to the following questions:

  • What will happen to your health, relationships, and/or wealth if you improve?
  • What will happen to your health, relationships, and/or wealth if you do not improve?
  • What will not happen to your health, relationships, and/or wealth if you do improve?
  • What will not happen to your health, relationships, and/or wealth if you do not improve?

Exploring all four dimensions will provide a much clearer picture of what may happen, one way or the other. In the end the resulting effect of this exploration should produce additional motivational energy to help you develop critical lasting commitment to lose weight and improve your fitness.

Lasting Weight Loss Has Become Easier

According to the National Weight Control Registry Study statistics, fewer than 10 percent of people who lose weight are able to keep it all off for a prolonged period (over two years).

Until now, the best weight loss books have not been able to come up with a balanced approach to lasting weight loss and fitness improvement. However, The Fitness Protocols by Epi Torres is changing that. The book is based on the lessons Torres learned over nine plus years since he lost and kept off over 70 pounds.

What makes this one of the best weight loss books is the balanced approach Torres devised to help him become so uniquely successful, according to weight loss maintenance stats.

The Fitness Protocols focus is on three critical aspects that cause lasting weight loss to be so elusive:

  • Lasting commitment to lasting fitness
  • Proper preparation for the weight loss and maintenance effort
  • Lasting habit and lifestyle changes

Lasting weight loss and fitness improvement require much more than just a diet and/or exercise. To be most successful, you need to take a comprehensive and balanced approach that includes commitment building, good preparation, and habit and lifestyle adjustments. Otherwise, we may end up losing weight, but the loss is not long-lasting or even better permanent.

What The Fitness Protocols book does differently and better than prior so called “best fitness books” is guiding you through the process of building your commitment to lasting fitness, helping you better prepare to accomplish and sustain weight loss and better fitness, and guiding you through the habit and lifestyle changes necessary to maintain your improved fitness.

That is why The Fitness Protocols approach makes lasting weight loss so much easier to accomplish!

A Strong Sense of Conviction Helps You Build Lasting Commitment

Your sense of conviction is a strong feeling resulting from being highly convinced that you REALLY want to accomplish weight loss and fitness improvement. Conviction results from the process of evaluating and building a strong rationale for what you want to accomplish. To be most successful, you should ensure you build the strongest case possible.

Following we will briefly describe the key aspects of conviction we use in the Fitness Protocols approach to help you build your case. In order to help you produce the highest possible amount of energy we focus on two key aspects:

  • Things you don't want
  • Things you want

The things you do not want include current and future negative aspects associated with your current fitness condition such as:

  • Poor fitness drawbacks
  • Poor fitness risks
  • Poor fitness impact
  • Other things you don't want

These are all the things you want get rid of, or avoid. The things you really dislike or hate about being out of shape and would do almost anything to get away from!

The things you want include the positive aspects of improved fitness such as:

  • The possibilities of better fitness
  • The benefits of better fitness
  • The needs better fitness meets
  • Other things you want

These are all the positive things you want to obtain by improving your fitness. The things you want badly and would do almost anything to get.

In both our weight loss and fitness improvement book and best iPad App, we provide with an easy-to follow systematic approach to help you identify these aspects. Doing so should produce a high level of conviction that can add to your lasting commitment to lose weight and improve your fitness.
