#57: Redefining Strength

Published: Feb. 3, 2022, 6 a.m.

I have a slight obsession with a trainer I follow on Facebook and Instagram. I\u2019ve been following Cori Lefkowith of REDEFINING STRENGTH \xa0for years, enjoying her motivational posts and loving her targeted exercises for my troublesome injuries.\xa0 She has great rehab advice that I have tried and tested on my numerous Ortho injuries. She has helped me when many PT\u2019s couldn\u2019t\xa0 even crack the mystery.\xa0\xa0\xa0 \xa0 She posted something a few weeks ago that blew my mind: \u201cMost people fail because of how they try to achieve their goals.\u201d\xa0 She went on to write that the date at which most people completely quit on their New Year\u2019s Resolutions...is\u2026..?? It\u2019s not the Summer...Or a specific holiday or event\u2026 It\u2019s not\xa0 the middle of February which was my guess. It\u2019s JANUARY 19th!\xa0 (This date is based on a study done of over 800 million people\u2019s activities in 2019)\xa0 Which led me to thinking and asking WHY do people quit so early? What are the stumbling blocks that cause us to give up? How can physicians and other healthcare experts help motivate their patients or themselves even\u2026.to realize their fitness and weight loss goals? Cori oozes with energy and positivity and encouragement. She will tell you, you are NEVER too old, too big, too injured\xa0 ( insert your excuse) to not achieve your fitness goals! She\u2019s passionate about what she does and has a massive following on FB and IG to show it. Today we brush the surface on common stumbling blocks like how to stay committed to your workout routine.\xa0 What causes people to burnout or quit? How to get over the motivation hump and what tricks/tips help people stay consistent.\xa0 And then there\u2019s the four letter D word!!!! Cori\u2019s Bio: Cori Lefkowith is the owner of Redefining Strength. Her company\xa0 is empowering clients through fitness and nutrition while teaching them to train smarter, not just harder.
