Speed ​​Race

A balanced weight loss diet is a way of eating that takes into account our habits and with proper calorie management we have as a result a reduction in our weight.

Rapid weight loss is not healthy and can cause problems such as weakness (due to a simultaneous reduction in muscle mass), negative changes in our blood values, sagging skin due to the skin not having time to adapt to this change.

A weight loss diet is not a speed race. Fast is not always the right thing, nor is it always the good thing.

With a balanced weight loss diet we will reduce our weight to the ideal desired one and we will learn the basic principles and the way of eating in order to reduce the chances of increasing our weight again to levels that create problems for our body.

Through repetition and duration, the desired result will come, along with patience, perseverance and a willingness to learn.

Slimming diets that last a short time (e.g. 1 month to lose 3-4 kg) due to their short duration are more difficult to offer knowledge, and are often treated as a “speed race” without the corresponding training.

Priorities

Our priority when following a slimming program to reduce our adipose tissue must be knowledge first and then the result.

Knowledge will come with observing the foods in the diet and how our body reacts to these foods.

Not all foods have the same effect for all people. By learning the foods that help us during the program, we will be able to use them in larger quantities after our program ends since we will now be following a weight maintenance program with significantly more calories.

The same happens with the number and order of meals we have during the program.

The positive result will be achieved even if we do not learn anything during the program, but we will not be able to understand how to use these foods, the frequency and number of meals during the maintenance of our weight, which will no longer be frequent contact with our dietitian.

Targets

Healthy weight regulation can only be achieved through a correctly calculated energy balance that, in addition to the energy ingested through nutrition, also calculates the energy expended through our physical activity.

In addition to reducing calories, weight loss is also a complex function of biochemical factors that can sometimes accelerate and sometimes slow down the rate of change, even though we meticulously adhere to our program.

Our patience and perseverance as well as adherence to the targets we have set will bring the desired result.

Short-term targets at the beginning and long-term targets later will be achieved.

The timelines that we may have set at the same time as our targets are good, but it is not absolute that they will be adhered to precisely because of the biochemical factors we mentioned and they are not always immediately solvable.

IPSC – Speed ​​Race – Priorities – Targets

In IPSC shooting, while doing a speed race (running very fast between the targets), we almost never get the expected result, we lose sight, we don’t stop properly, we slip, we lose our breath, etc., resulting in not hitting the targets correctly.

The top competitors are usually not particularly fast, they simply position themselves intelligently and without unnecessary movements between and in front of the targets.

Yes, everyone’s priority is to want to get a good position or even win the match, but without the knowledge that comes with continuous training, this will not be possible.

The targets are the same for everyone, but why do some have almost all Alpha and some others have Charlie, Delta, Miss? Because with patience and perseverance in training, adherence to short-term targets at the beginning and long-term ones, the desired result will come.

In the match, ONLY what you have in training will come out, will appear.
