Body Bulding

Do you consider yourself a weak or a strong person?

If your only a weakling physically, then you still have large potential.
But if your a weakling mentally, you don’t have much potential.

Remember that our mind controls everything.

Under a stressful workout, your body sends signals to your brain to tell you stop because the stress is causing your body to overwork itself. Your mind can override your brain. Depending on how long you can ignore your impulses to quit, the stronger you will be. But it takes a strong mind to ignore those impulses.

1. You don’t need to be full of energy or full of inspiration to be ready for a vigorous workout. You can be dead tired and still maximize an incredible workout.

2. Don’t workout to complete a set number of reps. If you always just stop at a certain amount of work, then you’re limiting yourself. Work out until you fail. For example, do the pushup where you slowly rise after 10 seconds of struggle, then immediately try to do another one and accept failure.
If it helps you, try to think of an amount of repitions that would be difficult to complete, then once you reach that amount, do extra until you fail.

3. Always do the workout that you would rather not do. If you’ve decided you want to do a chest workout, and favor the benchpress, then think of the least enjoyable chest workout you can do. If you hate pushups, then do those instead of benchpressing. This applies to any muscle group. By favoring one workout we are by default choosing the one that is easier and more comfortable. Since when has ease and comfort helped to make someone stronger?

4. Don’t ever think of quitting. The longer you can suppress the thought of quitting from entering your mind, the longer you will endure.

5. Mix up your workouts. Muscles will adapt over time to your workouts. In essence, before you work that muscle group, your muscles are already ready for the work you are about to perfom. Never let your muscles adapt to any kind of workout. That way the muscle bulding and stengthening will increase more efficiently.

6. Test your mind. Before you attempt a high intensity workout, decide that you will challenge your limits to see what you’re really capable of. If you quit early, then you will have to ask yourself if that’s how weak you really are.

7. Be indifferent towards pain or exhaustion. If you don’t mind, it don’t matter.

8. a workout that is considered hard to you, is considered easy to someone else. It’s not because you feel exhaustion or pain any differently than the person who thinks it’s easy, but because the other person has had experience with much harder workouts.

9. Don’t make excuses. your tired, your sore, you didnt eat enough breakfast. You will in fact perform less action if you have any of the above, but you are just as capable of performing with the same intensity as if you weren’t.

10. Don’t ever be satisfied with your workouts. If you feel satisfied, there’s no chance you will do any more work. If you don’t feel satisfied, you will always do more.

11. If you feel like your about to die, or lose consciousness, then challenge yourself to go so far as to experience that. I gurantee you will quit those things happen.

12. Don’t mess up your workouts with junk food. Eat healthy and you will see better results, better health, and strength. If you feel the urge to eat junk food, just know that what you are craving is a small high from seretonin released from fats and sugars in the food. That’s why junky food tastes so good, but ruins a healthy body.

13. Workout with high intensity. Minimize rest between sets and do go too slow on your repitions. You can workout quickly, but remember to keep perfect form.

14. If you felt no pain, how many more repitions would you be capable of?

15. a strong mind is a strong body
