When it Gets Real
When it Gets Real
100%. Â What does that mean to you? I found myself asking myself the other day. Â I feel like I give about 95%. Â Why not 100? Â My wife and I were discussing this the other day. Â She asked me what I think is holding me back from hitting that other 5%, and I really had to think about it. Â I think itâs because Iâm comfortable with my workouts.
Comfort should be my first sign that I need to change.  IâŚ

Eat For Your Training
Eat For Your Training
So maybe you are getting into a routine with running, or are starting to get the hang of those weights. Â Youâve maybe seen some improvement, or feel stronger, faster etc. Â But you want to go further. Â Do you train more? Â Train harder? Â Well both of those are good. But you need to change your diet.
Our bodies can only grow or shrink with what we give it to work with.  It canât just burn fat byâŚ

Should You Be Taking a Pre-Workout?
Should You Be Taking a Pre-Workout?
The ago old question should you take a pre workout? Well yes, yes you should. When you work out your body uses a huge amount of energies. Your muscles have to have energy to keep up the work. If they are not fueled they can actually shrink during workouts.
Carbs and Amino Acids (protein) are what fuels your workouts. If your body doesnât have enough to fuel your muscles, it will actuallyâŚ

Do It Anyway
How many times do you roll out of bed and get to work when you donât really want to? I know this feeling. How many times do you get up and roll out of bed and go workout even when you donât want to?
Because our workouts donât actually pay our checks we can tend to take them less seriously. But in reality our well being, our health and vitality and adding years to our life by staying healthyâŚ

You Have Time
Number one excuse why people donât work out? Â No time. Â My job is too hard, my kids wear me out, my college classes are too hard. Â I have to go grocery shopping instead. Â My favorite show is on.
Itâs all excuses.  People are busy.  Very busy.  I am married, I have one child with another on the way, I work full time, I go to school part time, I am a reservist in the military.  Itâs rare that IâmâŚ

Dig Deep
I was reminded by one of the members of my fitness group on facebook today of the importance of really digging deep. Â Digging deep is I think something we tend to shy away from, we usually want the most benefit from the least amount of work, the most bang for our buck, and to a degree the easy way out.
When it comes to fitness, the easy way out is always wrong.  You want to go with the hardâŚ

Getting Past The Voice
Getting Past The Voice
Your workout actually starts the second you wake up. Â Because every day we are going to be tired at some point, we are going to think to ourselves âmaybe I can skip today and make it up tomorrowâ. Â The workout isnât the hardest once you are at the gym lifting, or once you are running at the pavement. Â The hardest part is convincing yourself to go to these places.
The mind is a powerful thing,âŚ

Find a Plan
Have you ever found yourself in the gym wandering around, half looking at everyone else and just copying what other people are doing? Â This isnât necessarily bad. Â Iâve learned some things by watching some people at the gym, and have also learned some âwhat not to-doâsâ.
If you are trying to get serious about your workouts you need to go in with a plan.  There are some great resources online,âŚ

Nutrition before Workouts
I get told all the time from people âIâve been working out but I just am not losing much weightâ. Â My first question is always, âWhat does your diet look like?â Â Usually the response is something in regards to they are still eating the same, and eating crap.
Working out without eating right is like putting  a brand new set of tires on car that wonât start.  Itâs almost pointless.  Almost.  NowâŚ

Stop Avoiding the Carbs
Stop Avoiding the Carbs
There seems to be this hatred of carbs, like carbs are the devil or something. Â The cause of this is probably some very popular diets that really push âcarb freeâ. Â Unless itâs a no fat, no soda, or no sugar diet, you should probably approach it with a lot of caution. Â Diets that restrict one kind of food are usually not a good thing.
The key to healthy diets is making sure you eat clean foods,âŚ

Don't Skip Mondays
Donât Skip Mondays
So itâs not that I havenât known this but it hit home and hit real for me last week. Â August has been a bad month for me with going to the gym. Â Weâve moved, Iâd had multiple drills on weekends, College classes have started back up for me, and then throw my family and work into all that, and well Iâve not made it to the gym like Iâve needed to this month.
Last week I missed Monday, and itâŚ

When the Workout Doesn't Work
When the Workout Doesnât Work
If you are working on a project at your job and it doesnât seem to be working what do you do? Â Do you just go in and tell your boss âhey sorry I canât get it, good luck with thatâ. Doubt that will end well.
So what do you do? Â You try a different approach and go at it again.
So why donât we approach fitness the same way?  I got in a rut for a little while, things just werenât clicking for me atâŚ

Learn It Discipline is so key when it comes to working out and eating healthy. Â We have to have enough discipline, to prepare meals, to make time for our workouts, to say no to fatty foods. Â
Itâs Not About the Scale This has been a crazy last couple months for me for working out.  I got up to the heaviest I've ever been about 2 months ago, I a goal I was trying forever to reach and finally did.
More Than Exercise
Youâve probably heard the different methods of lifting weights. Use light weights and high reps to cut, and low reps with heavy weight to bulk. While there may be a little truth in this, it doesnât really work like that. The biggest thing when it comes to bulking or cutting is food. Food is such a huge part of any kind of workout. Thereâs no one exercise that is going to get you shredded ifâŚ

Never Stop
You should never be content in your training. I am always looking at what other bodybuilders are doing, always trying to learn more about what workouts are more effective, or which ones target muscles better. You can ask my wife, Iâm always changing things in my diet, adding or removing calories etc. And you should be too.
If you are new to working out, then yes stick with one thing until youâŚ

When You Get Hurt
When You Get Hurt
So if you lift or run, or workout in general long enough eventually something will get hurt. A pull, a strain, a sprain. Itâs common. It happens.
So what do you do in those circumstances? Do you rest, do you push through the pain? Well you may want to do both.
Itâs easy to automatically think that when you get hurt, you should just stop. But this isnât necessary nor good.
First off, youâŚ
