Howdy!
Long time no blog... The theme of today's post is to identify the purpose of your goals. Without a clear plan, you will just be wasting time. You have to set your mind to a realistic goal in order to achieve it. Establishing small obtainable benchmarks allows for a higher probability of completing the larger goal. In this scenario the sum is greater than the individual parts.
Let me provide an example. If your goal is to bench press 300 lbs or clean and jerk 265 lbs, and you currently bench 200 and C&J 185, you will not be able to complete this weight successfully with months of hard work an dedication. Following a properly designed training and nutrition program is the only way to do so. I recommend Wendler's 5/3/1 powerlifting system. Nutrition is an important element to sustain the physical activity to add strength and size, if that is your goal. Water is the most important nutrient needed to fuel your body properly. De-hydration will make you sluggish and you will get gassed fast. Before I start to ramble, let me summarize.
1. Write out your Goal
2. Plan some incremental goals
3. Execute them.
4. Make a chart to visualize your goal to stick to it daily.
5. Do IT.
6. Check your progress Monthly to ensure that you are on track
Stay Healthy My Friends,
