Why Most Guys Sabotage WeekendsâAnd How To Fix It
Letâs face it, weekends ruin more progress than missed workouts.
Why?
No structure = poor decisions
More social events = more temptations
You let your foot off the gas, thinking, âI deserve a break.â
Hereâs how to enjoy the weekend without blowing your progress:
Stick to your usual meal timing, especially breakfast
Stay hydrated (dehydration mimics hunger)
Plan your indulgence, donât let it turn into a 48-hour binge
Get your workouts done early, before distractions pile up
The goal isnât to be perfect. Itâs to be strategic.
FROM RYANâS DESK
Blaming others is easy. Owning everything is hard. But real men take responsibility for their results, their decisions, and their outcomes. Excuses weaken you; ownership strengthens you. Be the guy who controls his life. Thatâs where power begins.
Resource Highlight: Troyâs Shift to a Lifelong Fitness Lifestyle
Troy didnât come to 3M Coaching for a quick fix.
He was ready for something deeper, a lifestyle change.
Before joining, he was âfloating through lifeâ with a body and energy level he wasnât proud of.
Clothes stayed on at the beach, confidence was low, and he knew the years werenât going to slow down for him.
In just 90 days, Troy:
Dropped 12 pounds while adding visible muscle definition
Built the confidence to take his shirt off anywhere: beach, yard, or gym
Improved sleep, energy, and overall vitality
Established a sustainable routine he can follow for life, not just a program timeline
âI wanted it to change my lifestyle so I could do it forever. And you set it up so that itâs very easy to do that. I couldnât be happier.â
Now, Troyâs transformation isnât about a number on the scale; itâs about years added to his life and a daily routine that fuels performance.
Heâs living proof that itâs never too late to reverse course and build a body youâre proud of.
Question from Our Readers:
âI travel a lot and eat out often. How do I track my macros when I canât prep meals?â
â Leo, 55, from Atlanta
Great question, Leo. You donât need to be perfect, just close enough.
Hereâs how:
Use the âeyeball methodâ: palm = protein, fist = carbs, thumb = fats
Prioritize protein first: grilled meats, eggs, fish, etc.
Look up the restaurant menu in advance and plug estimates into your tracker
Skip sauces and extras when possible; they hide a lot of calories
Itâs not about tracking down to the gram; itâs about staying consistent and avoiding blind spots.
Fit Trivia: Which 80s TV personality became a fitness icon with energetic home workout videos and signature dance-style routines?
Answer: Richard Simmons! Simmonsâ âSweatinâ to the Oldiesâ tapes brought fun, inclusive fitness into millions of homes, and his personality made him one of the most beloved figures in 80s fitness culture.
