Marital Arts great Bruce Lee would say: Maximum efficiency, minimum effort.
Of course this precept can be translated into many areas of life.
Many struggling dieters have said, "oh I'll eat this and then work out harder tomorrow" or "Well I worked out today so I can splurge" (meaning: I can show a lack of discipline). What they don't realize is that they are living by the MAXIMUM EFFORT, Minimum Efficiency law. They got it all reversed.
However, if the struggling dieter would apply the maximum efficiency mentality, they would find it easier to stick with their eating plan.
Imagine saying: "Well I worked out today, so I am going to fuel my body with great food to help it build the muscle i want and eliminate the fat I don't want." Imagine, that the minimum effort it takes to ingest healthy foods will produce maximum efficieny in helping your body to achieve it's fitness goals.
