ATTITUDE ADJUSTMENT
I am amazed at how many people I see in the gym literally ???sleep walking??? through their workouts. I am equally astounded by how many people spend half their time jabbering on the phone, reading the paper, or gossiping with fellow members. Why even go to the gym if this is how you plan on spending your time? You can just as easily take a nap at home or go to your local coffee shop and read, talk on your phone, and hit on the cute waitress.
Funny thing is, these are often the same people that complain they aren???t gaining any muscle or losing any fat even though they are on the latest and greatest wonder supplements on the market. Do they even have a clue what is truly going on? Do they realize that of the 2 hours they spend in the gym they are probably only doing about 10 minutes of true productive work? Answer???no, they don???t! You know how I know this? These same guys are the ones that come up to me and ask me why they cannot grow. When I ask them if they are training hard and eating right they unequivocally assure me they are busting their butt in the gym and eating ???tons??? of good food. I truly enjoy watching their reaction when I tell them that I see them EVERYDAY wasting countless time in the gym and barely breaking a sweat. And when it comes to diet, upon further inspection I always find out that what they consider ???tons??? of good food is actually not enough to feed my big toe and the food THEY DO eat is mostly garbage. Hey guys, just because you drink a protein drink once per day, you do NOT have your nutritional bases covered!
Does it sound like I???m ranting? Do I seem a bit angry? Well, I am! If you are going to go to the gym and expect to get 100% out of it, when you only put 10% into it than please don???t bother???and especially, don???t BOTHER ME about it. Take a good look at yourself and what you truly want out of your efforts. If you really want a better body than get an attitude adjustment and put in the effort it takes, both in the gym and at the table, to make it happen. The good things in life do not come easy. If having a great physique was simple to achieve then everyone would have one. If you want a special body, realize its going to take a special effort! Now stop whining and start kicking some ass in the gym! Plan out your 6 high protein meals per day and eat them on a consistent basis. Take your basic supplements and stop looking for that ???magic pill.??? Finally, get some good sleep each night.
Do these things and watch your body change for the better on a daily basis. Or, go to the gym, talk on you cell and pretend you are accomplishing something. Just do me a favor and stay out of MY way. I have some real work to do!
