3 reasons you won't lose weight attending a fitness class

Now, before we start, I want to be clear that I am not having a go at fitness classes.

I go to some and teach a lot myself. They are a great way to meet people, have fun and get moving. If your consistent with your attendance, they will probably help you get fitter and stronger too.

Instead, what I want to do is to help you understand the reasons why you might of failed to lose weight and hit your goals in the past and to manage you expectations of what to expect if all your doing is attending a couple of fitness classes per week.

If you are after a simple workout and you don't really have any specific goals, then classes are great but this blog is probably not for you. If however, you have struggled to drop fat for a while and really make changes to your body and long-term health, this blog is all about the 3 reasons why you need to be thinking about something more structured with accountability and a support package that helps you outside the sessions.

1. Exercise is just the tip of the iceberg
You probably heard this before but the actual exercise and training you do will only be responsible for around 20% of your weight loss results. The other 80% comes from a combination of your nutrition and changes to your mindset that will help you change the way you think about food and your lifestyle.

2. There is no nutrition advice or coaching
You will be surprised by how many people tell me they have a good diet but with further inspection, we find that much of what they think is healthy is not getting them results. With so much of your goals dependent on what you put into your mouth, not having coaching and support on this will probably see you failing.

3. There is no accountability

FACT! "It is much easier to justify skipping a fitness class than a personal training session".

Fitness classes are a low cost product, either thrown into your gym membership or you will pay a small fee of £3-8 per class. For most people, even if they have already paid, they will not be bothered about missing one of these sessions because there is nobody making you go or calling you to find out why you didn't attend.

Another fact for you. "The bigger your investment, the more you care about your results". Everyone wants to get their money's worth right. So if you have paid a bit more for a service, you are far more likely to take advantage of it. What's more, is that higher priced programs simply offer more.

• You get great focused workouts that are far more beneficial than most fitness classes
• You get full nutrition support and guidance
• You get the help and accountability you need outside of the sessions to make sure you stay on track and get the results your after.

So next time your weighing up the price of a program, think about what you are comparing it to. Do not compare a focused 1:1 or small group training program to a gym membership, a poorly run boot camp or a fitness class. 

They cost a bit more because they give you so much more than just a 30-60 minute workout that you only do whenever you feel like showing up.
