KISS – Keep It Simple, Stupid!
KISS, it’s not the rock band, and no it doesn’t involve your lips – and yes, I have written about it before on this blog.
KISS = Keep it simple, stupid!
I can truthfully testify that the Internet contains more than enough free information to give you all the knowledge you need to lose weight, grow your muscles and, oh yes, get six-pack abs. The information is all out there friend, but why in the Google era, do you and I find it so hard to locate it?
There are 2 reasons why too much information is a bad thing
1. Information Overload
There is just too much information out there. In fact it would be near impossible for you to trawl through every strand of content relating to health, fitness and losing weight.
Though at first, too much information sounds like a good problem, it doesn’t take long to find out it isn’t.
Read one article and it’ll provide the answer, find another article and it’ll provide a better answer. Do a little more searching and you find a completely different answer, then you come across… get the picture?
At this point most people give up and just guess which information is the best, though in the back of their minds they still have no idea if it will work or not.
2. No One Can Give It To You Simply
What you want is a definitive easy-to-follow resource that you can use to get success right? I want six-pack abs, now tell me how to get them!
Don’t get me wrong, there is a ton of content out there (both free and paid-for) that seeks to answer that exact question. The problem is that it is either inadequate – doesn’t give you the results you’re after, or it is too complex to provide a answer that you can apply to your life.
How many calories? What percentage of protein/carbs/fat? How many sets/reps? What kind of gym? How many meals? Everyone seems to think it is necessary to answer all these questions, and give us all the answers. That’ll surely sort us out, and enable us to have the body we’re after, right? Wrong!
If you’re anything like me, you don’t want to become a bodybuilder, nor do you want to start counting calories and measuring when and how much to eat.
Where is the Dummies Guide to Six-Pack Abs?
Even a Dummies Guide is too much, those books always seek to teach rather than act as a guide. If we really want to keep it simple (stupid!) then we want a guide that is so simple we can follow it without thinking about it.
When you need to build a house, do you build it yourself? When you crash your car, do take a crash course (excuse the pun) in panel beating and engine reconstruction? Similarly if you want to clean up your diet, shed flab and get a chiseled mid-section, why should you spend endless hours trying to become an expert on the topic?
Achieving a six-pack doesn’t need to be complicated – and it certainly isn’t necessary to become a bodybuilder or nutritional expert to reach such a goal.
Surfing The Web Isn’t A Physical Sport!
Come on people, stop drowning in the ocean of information that is the Internet. I encourage you to follow along on this blog where my focus will remain keeping it nice and simple.
