Pratik Patel, a marketing manager in Toronto, shares his journey and results from a coaching program with Strong Jon Fitness.  He initially struggled with his weight and noticed his clothes getting tighter. Through the program, he learned about the importance of nutrition and high protein intake.  He also implemented strategies like banking calories and making healthier choices when eating out.  Pratik lost 14.4 pounds and saw significant changes in his body composition. He emphasizes the importance of accountability and flexibility in maintaining progress while still enjoying life. Takeaways Implementing simple strategies like banking calories and making healthier choices when eating out can make a big difference in weight loss. Accountability and flexibility are key to maintaining progress while still enjoying life. Education and mindset shifts around daily habits and weekend approaches are crucial for long-term success. Consistency and steady progress are more important than perfection. Having structure and guidance in workouts can lead to better results. Graduating from a coaching program doesn't mean the end of accountability; it's important to continue checking in with oneself.

It's, there are gonna be times where the body has to adjust. It has to get used to what you're doing, and then it allows for the chance to reevaluate.” 20:15: “Don't completely change what you've been doing and go to another plan and jump ship because it's just a good time to assess, to say, okay, when I'm in a caloric deficit, my body is stressed. You know, metabolism does start to decrease, especially if you are losing weight.” 25:04: “I think increasing walking or increasing steps is probably one of the best things to do too. So if the diet's in check, exercise is in check, and you don't wanna add in any extra sessions because we know that that's not the best way to go about stimulating those adaptations, walking is probably the best thing to do.” 28:12: “We never wanna look at anything from an acute perspective. We wanna zoom out. And if we do what we need to do over time, it's gonna go in the direction we want it to. It's just never super easy.

And, you know, as opposed to metformin, these GLP-1 agonists work, you know, against gluons. Obviously, glucagon breaks down glycogen molecules to get glucose in the blood, but if you're having issues with glucose control. That's the last thing you wanna have happen.” 2:34: “So a lot of these people that are taking the drug are seeing anywhere from five, 10% even greater than that in terms of their body weight and weight loss. You can imagine if somebody's overweight or obese and they're. Pushing almost 300 pounds, you lose 10% of your body weight. That's 30 pounds.” 4:13: “So what they found was everybody had made some type of progress, but it was definitely pretty significant what the differences were. Exercise in the control group didn't really move the needle on these individuals losing much weight. Those that actually took the drug lost a decent amount of weight, but those, that combined exercise with the drug lost the most.” 5:58: “That's one big concern is when you're on medications for a long time. We don't know the long-term issues with it. What actually is gonna happen to some of these people because, you know, it can affect your different organs, it can affect the kidneys, it can affect, potentially the heart and brain.” 7:19: “I would wanna look at is, cool you lost weight, but what has it done to your internal systems? Do you have excessive inflammation? Has it affected your testosterone, your hormone function? What is it doing to your blood glucose control over time?

To me, leading is a verb. If you're leading, you're a leader. If you're swimming, you're a swimmer, if you're driving, you're a driver. If you're leading, you're by definition a leader. I define leading as being looked to in a particular moment to decide or perform an action based on your unique gifts and abilities. So by that definition, everybody is a leader. All rank and role really describe is how many people are hoping you get it right when it's your turn to wear the weight.” - Clint Bruce "Attention is the currency of performance." - Dr. Peter Haberl “That's what I've discovered in the lives of brilliant, prolific, healthy creatives, is that they have networks of people they leverage in the course of their work. That they learn from, that they were challenged by, that they gave great insight and purview into their own life and work, in such a way that they were able to receive feedback that helped them get better at what they do.” - Todd Henry "Restful and fulfilling sleep enables you to grow, adapt, and thrive. It creates the conditions for adaptation, so you can pursue audacious goals and thrive in uncertainty." - Dr. Erik Korem "Most exercise programs fail, not because the reps and sets are poorly designed, but because the program doesn't adjust for how much stress your body can adapt to that day.

All rank and role really describe is how many people are hoping you get it right when it's your turn to wear the weight.” - Clint Bruce "Attention is the currency of performance." - Dr. Peter Haberl “That's what I've discovered in the lives of brilliant, prolific, healthy creatives, is that they have networks of people they leverage in the course of their work. That they learn from, that they were challenged by, that they gave great insight and purview into their own life and work, in such a way that they were able to receive feedback that helped them get better at what they do.” - Todd Henry "Restful and fulfilling sleep enables you to grow, adapt, and thrive. It creates the conditions for adaptation, so you can pursue audacious goals and thrive in uncertainty." - Dr. Erik Korem "Most exercise programs fail, not because the reps and sets are poorly designed, but because the program doesn't adjust for how much stress your body can adapt to that day!.
