This Will Annoy A Certain Type Of Person

There’s a type of person that wouldn’t get on with me and I wouldn’t want to work with. In fact I would not even want to spend time with them and I don’t!

So at first the title may seem a little specific and somewhat personal!
Well guess what it is!
I have nothing against Sylvia’s though!
You see, I have had a number of people writing to me, phoning me, signing up on the BLAST Fitness Camp waiting list asking to come on the waiting lists for Personal Training or the Fitness Camp.
This is great and it is due to the fact that the people who immerse themselves in what we offer change their lives! You will see more proof of this this week!
But to be honest I don’t want to work with everyone and not everyone would want to work with me!
That’s totally cool!
That’s partly why we now offer an experience week at my fitness camp where  I can see if I can help this person and in my personal training studios we have a tight system that basically allows us to see if we are a good fit for our clients before  they commit.
So why Sylvia- well it went well “sapper”. Sappers are people who behave like sponges. They are all take and no give. They bring nothing to the party. Sir Clive Woodward, Rugby World Cup Winning Coach, talked about these people in his book. Basically he didn’t want them in his team environment.
He described These are the sort of  who would see how to do as little as possible in a situation. Some of you may know these as social loafers! They don’t actually have to physically show that they are negative but they don’t actively engage in circumstances.
There’s a number of things that this person probably does and says each day that would probably mean we wouldn’t be a good fit.
In fact I have lost friendships because of this, now this is cool too, because you CANNOT be  something to everyone but you can be EVERYTHING to someone!
I am going to call this lady Sylvia just for this.
In this context Sylvia is:

  • The person who signs up for everything, and does nothing.
  • Says she is doing something or attending a particular gym but hasn’t been in 3 weeks.
  • Sylvia is the sort of person that would tell you that you are crazy for training
  • Sylvia is also the person who probably gets ill and blames other people ignoring the fact her diet is full of processed, toxic products.

 

  • Sylvia is the person who expects a miracle, expecting a miracle what a load of crap. There are a few things in life you can cheat your way to. You can write on your arm in exams, you can jump the queue at certain events or you can use the fact you know somebody to in a position of power to gain an advantage. Politicians  seem very good at this, but even in time, they get bitten on the arse! But you can’t do this with your health.

 

  • Sylvia is also the person who trys to mix salmon and ice cream! Not many people can pull this off, maybe not even Rich Stein or Jamie Oliver! But you see Sylvia thinks she is different, she thinks she can turn up to training when she wants, eat what she wants and mix them altogether and get great results and be healthy.

 

  • Sylvia is also the person who complains that she is sick and tired but also finds eating clean whole  natural foods “just too much”.

 

It’s retarded.

  • This person would actually complain how she hasn’t got results, still feels tired all the time, cant shake off this cold,  but then forget that she went out on a bender for the last three Fridays and Saturdays, drank coffee each morning, still ate her sh*tty cereal and only trained when she could be bothered!

 

I am going to be blunt here, I have no time for the Sylvia’s of this world.

 

I am not saying you have to behave like a nun for the rest of your time on this planet. BUT if you want change, if you want to be better than you are today, something has to change.

Because,

If nothing changes, nothing changes  right!
Being aware of Sylvia in your life is important, she’s a friggin’ nightmare.

She’s always complaining about how hard her life is, how little time she has, how other people make it impossible for her and how people who take action are crazy!

Watch out soon for a few cracking RESULTS

Eat Well, Train Well, Live Well
