Since we continually talk about self-improvement, using these strategies i throw at you every day will help you all an awful lot!!!
We talked about the importance of doing strength and cardiovascular training together over the course of the week. This is an absolute must, a racing certainty, something you definitely have to do……………………….IF you want to be in shape. You cant stand still, you have to move on or you slip back.
Think of a plant in the ground, it either grows from the sun and rain or it dies, simple as that.
If you focus your body on improvement and adopt this mantra for the rest of your life, and you follow a good plan, you cannot lose surely!!!!
So if you commit yourself to doing cardiovascular training and weight training, what happens next?
One of the most successful things you can do is keep a journal.
For example, if you doing 5 of something one week, 8 of something the next and then you get up to 20 after a few weeks, then you achieved quite a lot, and with a proper diet, this should result in big physical improvements too! This is a simple formula anyone can use, why complicate it?!!!!!
So your journal should go something like this.
For example; Week 1 Monday, Wednesday, Friday
Press ups-5
arm dips-5
sit ups-5
squats-5
step ups-10
Week 2 could be
Press ups-10
arm dips-8
sit ups-8
squats-10
step ups-20
THIS IS ALREADY A BIG STEP UP IN JUST 2 WEEKS-IMAGINE WHAT YOU CAN DO IN 6 WEEKS, 12 WEEKS OR EVEN 52 WEEKS?!!!
Same with a walk, imagine walking on the flat for the first month, then you have aspirations to go up hills, and maybe even a mountain as you progress far enough.
By keeping a journal for EVERY workout, you have something to work against and beat every week. You may not beat it every week, but you WILL have a comparison and a target to go for!!!
A simple successful strategy you can adopt today!!! Its all about improvement and progress!!!!
