You’ve seen them. The flashy Instagram reels promising the must-try workout for abs, the quick fix for toned arms, or the secret move that will sculpt your legs in 10 days. You probably even have a folder saved full of them—just in case.

And hey, I love that you’re moving. That’s a win. But if you’ve ever felt like you’re constantly bouncing from one viral workout to the next—trying, stopping, getting frustrated, and searching for the next best thing—you’re not alone.

Let’s talk about why this cycle keeps happening and how you can finally break free from it.

Why Quick-Fix Workouts Keep Failing You

At first, they seem exciting. New moves, high-energy promises, and the hope that this time it will be different. You dive in.

But then…

It takes too long. (You thought it was 15 minutes, but it’s more like 45.)

It’s overly complicated. (Balancing on one leg while swinging a dumbbell? Really?)

You get sore—really sore. (So you rest for days and feel like you’ve lost momentum.)

You get bored because the results aren’t happening as fast as promised.

And then? You stop. You get frustrated. And you start looking for the next best thing.

This isn’t a motivation problem. It’s a strategy problem.

What Actually Works (Even If It Seems "Boring")

Here’s the truth: if you want to get stronger, build confidence in your body, and feel amazing for life—not just for a before-and-after picture—you have to give your body time to adapt.

That means sticking with a simple, repeatable routine long enough to:

✔️ Get stronger.

✔️ Build skills and confidence.

✔️ Make it a habit so you don’t have to think about it.

I know, I know. That might sound boring. But here’s the thing—those “boring” workouts? They work.

And before you worry about time, here’s the good news: this doesn’t have to take hours.

In fact, just 10 minutes, a few times a week, can be enough to start seeing real changes. The key is sticking with it long enough for it to become part of your life.

What Happens When You Stick With It?

The benefits of a simple, repeatable strength routine aren’t just long-term. You start feeling better right away:

More energy throughout the day.

Feeling happier (hello, endorphins).

Moving through life with more confidence in your body.

Noticing small wins—like lifting your shopping bags with ease.

And the best part? Once your foundation is strong, you can add on whatever else you enjoy. You don’t have to give up fun workouts, hiking, dancing, or whatever else lights you up—you just won’t be chasing quick fixes anymore.

To stay on track and monitor your progress, I've created a Fitness Habit Tracker specifically for busy women like you.

This tracker will help you:

Build awareness around your habits
Identify patterns
Make adjustments as needed

It's available for download on my website lisadawnbeckwith.com/tracker

Use this tool to stay accountable, celebrate your wins, and prioritise your health and well-being.

How to Get Started (Without Overcomplicating It)

You don’t need a perfect plan. You just need to start small and stay consistent.

Step 1: Pick 3-5 moves that work your whole body. (Think: squats, push-ups, rows.)

Step 2: Do them 2-3 times a week for 10-20 minutes.

Step 3: Stick with it for at least 4-6 weeks and track your progress.

That’s it. No overthinking. No perfect plan. Just showing up and letting it build.

Final Thoughts: Simple Doesn’t Mean Ineffective

It’s easy to feel pulled in every direction by the latest trends, flashy workouts, and quick-fix promises. But the truth is, real change comes from consistency, not complexity. When you give your body the chance to adapt, grow stronger, and build habits that stick—you stop chasing results and start living them.

You don’t need to do more. You need a plan that meets you where you are, helps you build confidence in your body, and supports you through life’s ups and downs.
