Put down your phone and step away from Instagram! Scrolling through the latest #fitspo is not going to get you where you want to be. "Because of the culture we live in, we're always going to be underimpressed with our own bodies. It's human nature to constantly feel like we could do more and look better," said Jordan. "But if your perspective is to focus on how you feel more than on how you look, you've got a much better chance of sticking with your goals and being healthy long-term."
