This feeling of “more is better” is a staple within the fitness industry. An idea that has been popularized after decades of clever marketing by fitness gurus and get fit quick schemes for as long as we can remember.
The same mindset has been attached to nutrition and eating LESS, or taking MORE supplements to somehow bypass the need for patience while reaching for our health and fitness holy grail.
When it comes to exercise, we have been led to believe that MORE is better, or even necessary.
Contrary to popular belief, in most cases, this is not true.

We have established that consistency is crucial for lasting results, but how does proper and consistent REST play into that? And how do you know if you are resting too much, too little, or just the right amount?
There is nothing quite as confusing, frustrating, or overwhelming as trying to figure out which “diet” is right for you. For your goals. Your genetics. Your body type. Food preferences. Schedule. The list goes on. The fitness industry and/or “diet culture” has done quite a bang up job of making us feel that if only we could find our magic meal plan then we would FINALLY have the results we’ve been searching for, our nutritional “holy grail”.
