"It takes similar duration to healthily transform a fitness life as it does to create an Olympic athlete: 5-8 years. 1-2 years to restore mobility, gain dietary awareness and lose excess fat. 1-2 years to restructure into an athletic foundation and remove all nutritional impediments. 1-2 years to build the physique byproduct of flowing movement and tighten a high-octane performance health nutrition platform. We can prevent frustration and burnout by setting big-dream, long-haul lifestyle transformation mindsets".

Scott Sonnon posted that on Facebook today. "1 to 2 years to restore mobility", and I'm assuming that's for a fairly normal person. For someone like me, it's obviously much longer. Reading that just helps me put things into perspective and stay motivated. This is a slow process.
