I’m Not Seeing Results — Where Am I Going Wrong?

 

We often count our intentions, not our actual actions. Tracking can help.

 

You’ve been telling yourself that you are showing up at least a few times a week. You are trying to eat “healthy,” even cutting back on the treats you used to indulge in. You feel like you’re doing all the right things…

But nothing’s changing.

You’re not alone. This is one of the most common frustrations we hear from people who are trying to get fitter, leaner, and stronger—and not seeing the progress they hoped for.

The good news? There’s almost always a reason. And once you figure it out, you can fix it. Let’s take a look at two of the speed bumps people hit—and how to finally start seeing the results you’re working for.

1. You’re Not Being Honest (or Aware) About Nutrition

Most of us like to think we have a decent handle on what we eat. You might describe your diet as “clean,” “pretty good,” or “better than it used to be.”

But the truth is: “eating healthy” and “eating for your goals” are not always the same thing.

Maybe you’re grabbing a handful of almonds three times a day (a surprising 600 calories), eyeballing portions that are twice what you think, or sipping on lattes or local protein shakes that sneak in more sugar than dessert. Even nutritious foods in the wrong quantities can stall your progress.

The Fix: Track What You Eat

This isn’t about obsessing over every crumb or calorie forever—but if you’re not seeing results, you need more data.

Try this:

  • Track your meals for 3–5 days using your notes app or an app like MyFitnessPal.

  • If logging feels tedious, just take a photo of every meal and snack with your phone.

  • Review your food honestly: Is your after work routine including a drink or two? Are portions consistent? Are weekends undoing weekday efforts?

Awareness is the first step toward change. Often, just a few small adjustments—like removing your little after dinner treat or increasing your leafy green intake can make a big change.

2. Your Workouts Lack Consistency (and, again, Honesty)

Showing up matters. You’ve got a membership. Your plan is to get in 3–4 times a week. And hey—when you do that, it works.

But here’s the catch: we often count our intentions, not our actual actions.

If you're hitting 1–2 sessions a week, skipping a few here and there, and “starting fresh next Monday” more often than not… you’re doing just enough to maintain what you already have. Maybe. But likely not enough to spark new results—especially fat loss or major strength gains.

Training once a week keeps you from sliding backward.

Training 3+ times a week moves the needle forward.

That doesn’t mean you need to go hard every day. It means showing up regularly, doing something that gets your heart rate up or muscles working, and sticking to a rhythm your body can adapt to.

Consistency is the quiet force behind every transformation.

It’s also the thing most people skip when they say, “Nothing’s working.”

Getting results takes more than motivation—it takes intention.

So… Where Do You Go From Here?

Getting results takes more than motivation—it takes intention.

You don’t need to double your workout time or start eating chicken and broccoli every meal. But you do need to reflect honestly and be willing to adjust.

Here’s Your Action Plan:

  1. Track your food for 3–5 days. No judgment, just data.

  2. Record your workouts and look for patterns. Are you progressing? Are you consistent?

  3. Get support. We are here to help. Talk to your coaches.

Helpful Tip: Even one conversation with a coach can be the spark you need. We offer goal setting sessions with your membership to help you figure out exactly where to go next.
