Getting into great shape isn't easy and isn't impossible. It takes a little commitment if you want to move from average into excellence. For the last 4 months I have been trying to improve my fitness performance and develop a solid level of body growth and development. We aren't talking about muscles alone but a consistent level of overall growth.
In general, it is possible to go slower and make everyday changes that add up over time. However, significant change in shorter periods (i.e. body boot camps) requires a level of commitment of finding the right high performance level in relation to other health factors to balance food, exercise, recovering and fun/interest.
Food: Lower simple carbs (complex ok), clean protein, calories, and vegetables.
Exercise: Sufficient workout levels to increase calorie burn, improve cardiovascular performance, improve strength, coordination and flexibility.
Recovery: Often neglected it has an impact on overall performance and the amount of workout that can be completed. Faster change can only occur with sufficient recovery.
Fun/Interest: Working out can be fun and it can be boring. Change routines and include fun sports that improve on various fitness levels (i.e. volleyball or swimming.)
