Are you feeling overwhelmed by the thought of hitting the gym consistently enough to see results? Let’s reframe this challenge.
What is the Minimum Dose?
The concept of the “minimum dose” involves finding the smallest, most manageable action you can take to start seeing results. Often, doing less but doing it consistently can be more effective than trying to overhaul your entire routine at once.
Examples of the Minimum Dose
-
Diet Adjustments: Instead of overhauling your entire diet, start by adjusting your portion sizes. This small change can lead to significant results without the stress of a complete dietary overhaul.
-
Drink Choices: Cutting out sugary sodas instead of committing to only drinking water can be a more manageable and sustainable change.
-
Workout Routine: Instead of committing to working out five days a week for an hour, start with three days a week for 30 minutes. This “minimum dose” approach is less daunting and easier to stick to.
The Impact of Small Changes
Can you feel the difference? These small, consistent actions build momentum over time. As you become comfortable with these minimum dose habits, you can gradually ramp up your efforts.
Having worked with numerous busy Katy residents, I’ve found that this approach not only makes the process less overwhelming but also more sustainable. Over time, these small, consistent efforts compound into significant lifestyle changes.
