Getting the laser-focused mind to easily develop a good exercise routine isn’t as difficult as it sounds. You see those who can go to the weight room and just lift weights all day every day without even looking away. Let me tell you an interesting story about me and how I was able to overcome that “freak” type syndrome where you look up to everyone else working in the weight room when it should be you.
So I was a 20-year-old college student in the weight room, very short and scrawny. I watch these guys walk into the weight room with laser mental focus. I’m not talking about the ones who are obviously on steroids and just want everyone to see how good their muscles are. I’m talking about the real hard workers. They would go in, have a small snack and start working without looking at another person or in the mirror doing nothing (I’m guilty of that).
These guys were absolutely amazing when it came to this, they would just go in, start with upper body, do some incline bench, flat bench press, move on to dumbbells, do some triceps, some dumbbell flyes, dumbbell press . The next day, they’d do leg presses, squats and all, then fill their bodies with nutrients and protein, usually whey protein shakes.
I constantly ask them how they did this consistently and regularly. The man, who was about 35 years old, told me, I just did it. When she first started going, first making sure she was eating properly, she said, “When you eat right, you don’t want to waste all those good nutrients and just sit around. Plus, when you eat tons of complex carbohydrates, you have tons of energy stored and You don’t want it to go to waste.” At each meal he put complex carbohydrates, which included potatoes, oatmeal, pasta, whole grain breads, etc.
“The hardest thing is to start”, he also said, you just want to go in, don’t think about it, just make a plan beforehand, so that when you go in you know exactly what to do. The more you do it, the easier it gets.
