Work well with clear expectations and instructions.īy saying ‘yes’ so often Obligers often neglect themselves which leads to a lot of internal unhappiness and stress. Great at meeting deadlines and executing on tasks when being held externally accountable. Because most people are obligers you may easily identify with the characteristics below. Obligers meet outer expectations but struggle to meet inner expectations. The Obliger (the vast majority of the western population, ~70%).(The personality types described have been identified using Gretchen Rubin’s 4 tendencies framework.) So how then do you discover what personality type you are and what you’re most suited to…? If you can align your personality type with your training program and gym you have a winning formula. Move, sweat, eat less and get more sleep.īecause you are doing the wrong style of training or are at the wrong gym for your personality type. It’s not really the gym’s fault, it’s not the PT or coach and it’s very rarely the training program. Over a decade of industry experience has led me and my team to ONE KEY realisation. Why do you get this feeling history is about to repeat itself. It’s the time when ‘gyms near me’ peaks on google and when ‘Resolutioners’ attempt their big promise to change their health and fitness.īut why then do 90% of these new members fail. It’s important to know these rules before you get to the gym in order to make it a more productive environment for everyone.It’s not just boxing day bargains Aussies are on the hunt for this time of year…ĭon’t forget the January rush to find the ‘new you’ 2019 training program/gym. The New Year (gympocalypse) is unique because this is the period of time when most new members join. Everyone starts somewhere and no one has the right to claim their reason for joining a gym is superior to anyone else’s. There’s no place for a “here come all those dam resolutioners” mentality at the gym. Is someone using this bar or were they just too “busy” to clean up after themselves? It’s confusing and somewhat annoying to approach a bar loaded up with weights. When you’re done using free weights, put them away in their proper place. No one likes to workout around the stinky person, and in a confined gym, that stinky person does a lot of damage to the entire gym. You should also wear deodorant and practice good general hygiene.
