#027 - Why is the last 5kgs the hardest?

DW Fitness Chat ·

2023/04/25

I won't be taking about the physiological elements as to why your last bit of progress is the hardest. Today I talk about the mental side of it. Often you will be in less pain by this point, the discomfort to how you look and feel will be reduced and this could cause you to drop your standards. This is truly where habits and identity get tested. You can't rely on discomfort to motivate you for the rest of your days.

You never want to fizzle out on your journey, when it could have been avoided with better planning and strategy.
