Do GSP RushFit and Tapout Pass the Sustainability Test?

I have talked in recent articles and posts on my blog about the critical and too often over-looked value of sustainability. 

In short, sustainability refers to how well any work out program can be used multiple times without any worry that it will bring you diminishing returns or make you bored. If we are bored, we quit. If we aren’t getting the continued improve results, we are likely going to, also get bored and quit. We must be seeing results early and often. We also must be able to build on what we’ve done if we use the program in the future.

Looking at the GSP RushFit and TapOut mixed martial arts type programs specifically we are most concerned with the reusability or sustainability for two primary reasons. First, our money is hard earned and if this is a program you won’t or worse can’t  use many times into the future, you aren’t getting a fair return for your money spent. Second, the results are from the continuous habit of fitness. It is highly likely that GSP RushFit and TapOutwill not bring us the exact perfect results we see from the fitness models in the ads. Rather the reality is we’ll have to build on our initial gains and do the programs a few additional times. That’s when we’ll really take off.  I will venture a guess that the results we admire the most from those infomercials are the results of consistency over the course of years rather than one herculean effort done over 8 or 13 weeks.

So GSP RushFit and TapOut have to not bore us but also work us in a way that is not boring or tedious.  One of the keys to being sustainable is one that I believe GSP RushFit and TapOut handle very well. The moves are hard and what we see again and again is that programs that are hard to master also are sustainable in all the right ways.  We must have patience and focus on perfect form early on in the learning process to reap huge dividends on the backside. What difficulty means is that our body is being told that we have much to learn. As the body struggles to learn and adapt, the process of this causes change faster than if we continue to do the same old moves we’ve always known over and over again.

Also both GSP RushFit and TapOut feature high intensity work with brings with it great mental acuity and calm post-workout. People who are able to achieve that natural high off a program are more likely to return to it later on.
