Get Your Tip From Lee Labrada Now
on to the audio tip!

As
you enter week 12 of the Lean Body Challenge, think of a runner
completing a marathon. While you may have encountered some obstacles
during the first few weeks of the Challenge, by now, you quickly
learned to establish a good "pace," or, a good daily
rhythm to your workouts and meals.
Your
nutrition program should be like second nature to you by now.
And, while you still exert yourself during workouts, you actually
look forward to them. You feel good afterwards, enjoying a deep
sense of accomplishment.
That's
because you know that you're doing something really good for yourself.
There
are profound changes going on inside you also. You're getting
control of your body and more importantly, you're feeling a sense
of controlling your destiny; perhaps for the first time.
The
important thing to do now is to keep the rhythm going. Your goal
should be to "push through" the 12-week finish line
and commit yourself to a life-long program of physical and personal
self-improvement. You should start looking beyond the 12-week
Challenge.
Your
long-term success will hinge mostly on your ability to sustain
a daily pattern, or daily habits that you can live with on an
ongoing basis.
Coming
back to the example of the marathon runner, these last 12 weeks
have been a race for you. But what will you do now, after week
12?
If
you're like me, you don't want to just stop and quit after a race.
Sure, perhaps you'll want to take a few days off, but then, why
not keep going?
You
know that you can always take it slower--- you don't have to constantly
be "running." You can walk at times. And at other times
you'll feel like sprinting. Besides, now that you've made all
of the improvements; don't you want to keep them?
Life
should be a journey complete with never-ending self-improvement.
It is my sincere hope that if you've completed the Challenge,
you'll find a way to incorporate your new fitness and nutrition
habit into your life afterwards.
Congratulations
on your success! I look forward to receiving your completed Lean
Body Challenge competitor packet, complete with your before and
after pictures. Read your competitor packet for more details on
sending in a complete and "successful" entry, or go
to www.leanbodychallenge.com.
Don't
think for a second, "My results aren't good enough for me
to complete my entry in the Lean Body Challenge." If you've
come this far, you owe it to yourself to finish! You wouldn't
run a marathon only to quit a few feet from the finish line because
you didn't like your race time, would you? Follow through and
complete your entry package this week so that we can help you
celebrate your success!
I'll
continue to coach you on an ongoing basis through the Lean Body
Coaching Club. And remember, if you ever have a question, you
