Excuses


These are some of our wonderful clients who have NO EXCUSES! JUST RESULTS!

Our motto at Pro Performance is NO EXCUSES! JUST RESULTS! We all hear excuses why people can’t do this or that. We all make excuses sometimes. I used to teach and coach high school football and I would hear excuses everyday, from students as well as teachers. So why am I writing an article on excuses? I want to plow through, go over, go around or by what ever means necessary to find the answer to this statement, “I don’t have time to workout”.

I have heard it all, trust me. There are too many excuses to start naming them. I’m going to address two subjects here. One, people who say they don’t have time to workout and two, people who miss workouts.

I don’t have time. If someone wants to do something bad enough, they find a way to do it. So here is the question, and I’ll use a quote from my good friend and nutritional counselor, Travis Martin. “How big is your why”? Why do you want to workout, get in shape, get fit, and lose weight? WHY? That’s what you have to figure out for yourself. No one can answer that for you. When your why becomes big enough, you will find a way to get what you want. Some people fear being made fun of in the gym, or feel that they aren’t fit enough to go workout. Even though these emotions, feelings and fears are real, they are still excuses. Is your WHY big enough?

Secondly, I want to address the person who misses workouts. Allow me explain a little bit of our philosophy at Pro Performance. We are not your typical gym. We don’t line um up and sign um up. Our trainers want the clients to train. You can’t get results if you don’t work.

Here is my take on workout skippers. Commitment! All talk and no action. Sure, there will be times where you will have to miss an occasional workout session, but make it up! Our clients are great at Pro Performance! Have you ever heard of a training facility where clients call if they are going to miss and also ask when they can make the workout up? That’s what our clients do! It’s great! That’s commitment.

The bottom line is this, how big is your WHY, and are you committed to the end. Set goals, make a plan, take action on that plan, and never ever quit! Remember, NO EXCUSES! JUST RESULTS! Train hard and smart and God Bless!
