M3:D11 Going for it

By Leave a Comment

Chances are that at some point you have wondered what to do next.  You contemplate various approaches and try to figure out what is going to work for you.  Maybe you bounce from one idea to another because you “just don't see the results”?  Have you paralyzed yourself with the fear of failure?  Read on.

The Bouncer:

This is the person who changes their approach almost as often as they change their clothing.  They read something new on the internet and they are off to try it out.  A few days later they read something else, decide the first thing “isn't working” and give the next thing a try.  This vicious cycle never seems to end.  The Bouncer jumps from approach to approach and they never make any real progress because they are not giving anything a chance to work.

We are a society that expects instant gratification.  Hard work is alien to us.  When we start to eat right we expect the fat to just fall off our bodies.  None of this happens.

You have to go for it.  You need to submerge yourself in an approach and let it work for you. Nothing happens without some effort, so go for it!

The Fear of Failure:

This person is so afraid to fail that they do nothing at all to progress forward.  Set some goals.  Decide that changes will be made.  Start going for it because when you do, you will see there is nothing to be afraid of.

Success comes in baby steps.  You are not going to get anywhere if you don't ever start the journey.  Get going! 

Conclusion:

You have what it takes to succeed at this transformation stuff.  You just have to dig in and do it.  Go for it!  Get the job started and the rest will come easy.

The Friday Fat Burning Machine Tip: Choosing a Gym – 10 Things to Watch Out For by Vince Del Monte

By Leave a Comment

This is a new feature for the blog. I will be posting an article every Friday with tips from the experts.

Choosing A Gym – 10 Things To Look Out For
By Vince DelMonte
Now that you've made the commitment to starting a workout program, the next step is choosing a gym that you will feel comfortable going to on a regular basis. If it isn't, chances are you aren't going to stick with any type of regular plan and will eventually just stop going altogether. By being sure your gym is a good fit for you, you help take yourself one step further to realizing your health and fitness goals.

Keep in mind that if a traditional gym isn’t for you, you can definitely set up a home gym where you can get complete workouts all in the privacy of where you live. There are a number of home gym systems out there that include all the equipment you need to perform all the key lifts that should be included in any workout program.

1. Location

Who really wants to spend twice as long driving to and from their gym as it takes them to do their workout? After a long day of work you are not going to want to spend a good hour fighting traffic, another hour working out, and then another half an hour driving home. Think about either choosing a gym that is located close to your house or else on the drive to or from work. This is a great option since if you have to pass by it every day, you’ll be reminded of the fact that you should be working out if you choose to skip it.

2. Membership Cost

Gym memberships can really vary in costs so it’s a good idea to shop around before making that final commitment. Also consider how long you are signing the contract for as this can vary too. Many gyms like to rope you in for years and if you aren’t quite sure it’s going to be a long-term arrangement, you’re better off finding something that is more short-term.

Additionally, if you can wait until around late summer or New Year to sign up, you will find that often many gyms will have special promotions going on at this time.

3. Membership Demographic

Another factor to consider is the membership demographic that goes to the gym. Some women will prefer going to an all-ladies gym as it increases their comfort factor. For others, a mixed gym is the perfect solution because half of the reason they go there is to socialize and perhaps even find a date.

Whatever your needs, make sure you enquire about this and take it into consideration.

4. Additional Benefits

You will want to ask if the gym offers any additional services or benefits along with your basic membership and if there is a fee for these. Such examples would be daycare services, physiotherapy, massage therapy, nutritional counselling, and fitness testing.

5. Operating Hours

Always be sure to check the hours of operation of the gym. If you are an early morning exerciser you will want to be sure they are able to cater to this preference. Additionally ask about their holiday policies. Many people enjoy working out on the holidays because it is a relaxed day for them when they can really get in a good workout. If you are looking forward to this and then go and find out the gym is closed, you are going to be more than disappointed. Similarly there are some people who prefer working out late at night so you need to be sure that if this is the case you will be able to do that.

6. Personal Training Services

Having some good, qualified personal trainers on hand is critical to helping you realize your full fitness potential. Even if you are fine with your program right now, consider that in a year down the road you might be plateauing and in need of a ‘check-up’ so to speak on your current regime.

Having the option available of knowledge staff cannot be stressed enough. Unfortunately many gyms hire almost anyone who has a basic interest in fitness, so be sure to enquire about the actual certifications these trainers hold.

7. Group Fitness Classes

Be sure to ask about all the various group fitness classes that are offered at the gym you are considering. Often, when boredom kicks in on your workout plan, this is just the thing to get you going again.

These days there are currently thousands of different fitness class styles available, so there is sure to be something that suites your interest.

When checking up on this, again inquire if there are any additional fees associated with it so you are prepared for when you go to sign up.

8. Cleanliness

One very important factor you want to look for is the cleanliness of the gym. You do not want to be working out on equipment that is not clean as gyms are a place where germs can be in high concentration. Also make sure they have towels and spray bottles in various places around the gym to clean up after workouts, and have a look at the bathrooms and change rooms to make sure they are up to your standards.

9. Type/Quality Of Equipment

Looking at the type and quality of the equipment offered in the gym is another thing you must factor in. If you prefer free weights, make sure there is a large number of dumbbells present because during rush hours, these could be hard to come by.

Likewise, if you prefer doing your weight training on guided machines, you’ll want to be sure they have enough variety that you can work all the necessary muscles on your body. If you find yourself doing a lot of cardio training as part of your workouts you will want to be sure there are ample machines available.

Nothing is more frustrating than getting to the gym after work to find out that there is not a single machine in sight available for you to use. Ask if they offer a sign-up list where you can write your name and time down to reserve a machine. This is a great solution that many gyms have now come up with to make sure their members can get their workouts in.

10. Cancellation Policy

Finally take a look at the gym's cancellation policy. If you sign up for a 3 year membership and then end up moving after a year due to work, are you going to be partially refunded? It will be a bad situation if they offer no refund or transfer membership.

Some gyms are good about this and some are not so you will have to weigh the likelihood of your cancelling among other things that are discussed above when making your decision.

So, be sure you are considering all of these essential factors when choosing gym. Overlooking just one could lead you to being less than happy with your workout facility and this could end up being the reason why you do not stick with your program.

M3:D10 Wow

By Leave a Comment

Today I had a great upper body workout.  I love the intensity that is added by the 21's and 1-1/2's that I am asked to do.  I wind up feeling those in my muscles for days afterwards.  Much longer than I would if I did my reps the normal way.

I got a call two days ago from Carlos and my Quad Blaster is on its way to me.  I will pose with it for a picture when it arrives and later, after I figure out how to use it, I will video myself using it.  I may video my next set of deadlifts on Monday and post those for you all to see.  It can be sheer agony!

Today was a “wow” day because so many different revealations came to mind.  After viewing the awesome “reveal” by Mike Groom (Mike: Aussie Bodybuilder) I realized that maybe I need to work a little harder at things.  If you haven't seen his reveal, go check it out.  He has made some truly impressive progress.  I honestly believe alot of it has to do with his hard work on the nutritional front and even more so to do with his heavy lifting.  I am with him on both issues.  Perhaps I've turned the corner, but only time will tell.

I am really looking forward to the coming week.  It is interesting how the mind works.  Yet another revealation came to me.  I have to go to Seattle for a day (yes…just there and back in one day) and I was able to pick any day this coming week.  I picked Wednesday because it is a cardio only day.  Can you believe that I would pick my travel day based upon my workout schedule?  I can't go on Monday (holiday) or Tuesday (workout day) or Thursday (workout day) and I don't want to go on Friday, so that left me with Wednesday.

The final revealation is that I am in total control.  I am my own personal trainer 24 hours a day.  The progress I make is completely up to me.  I am with Mike Groom (Mike: Aussie Bodybuilder) when he says he isn't going to get obssessive about this transformation stuff.  I am with him because I think the only way to make it last is to not get obssessive.  If you get obssessive you are stuck with that way of life forever if you are going to maintain the changes you make.  However, if you do things with moderation and take the slow and steady path, you will be able to maintain the gains you make.  Some may disagree, but I honestly believe this is the right path to be on.  Yes, sometimes you want to be that person with the completely amazing transformation under your belt, but there are stats that show most of those people gain back every single pound they lose and then some.  I am not interested in becoming one of those statistics.  Slow and steady will win the race for me.

On a sidenote, I ordered Muscle Revolution by Chad Waterbury today.

M3:D9 Questions

By Leave a Comment

In my post yesterday (M38 Stabilized) I asked why nobody ever seems to respond to the Question of the Day feature on this blog.  I got numerous responses that I found interesting.  Some mentioned being in a hurry and others mentioned not knowing what to answer or being embarrassed.  I did enjoy the responses and it brought to mind the idea for this blog posting.

You see, the Question of the Day is specifically aimed at starting a dialog.  In some cases I'm thinking about something and want to get feedback which might result in a future post.  Whatever the case, I am simply trying to get you all to think.  As I get further and further into this journey I have realized so many things.  I have alot that I want to share and alot I want to “put out there” and so I ask these questions.  What I truly appreciate is the honest of those who post comments here.  I love the honesty of those in the Shreddersphere and those in the Shredder Council mission.  That's the kind of honesty I want to see in response to the Question of the Day.

I honestly do not think you should be embarrassed by anything you have to say.  I am a fairly agressive person who has gotten to where I am in life by thinking before I speak, but saying what's on my mind.  I don't believe in political correctness.  I believe in laying it out there.  At the same time, I try as best I can to avoid hurting anyone's feelings.  That's the only thing I censor myself for–someone else's feelings.

My questions arise because of things I read on the internet.  There are so many scammers in the fitness industry and it bothers me that they are able to take advantage of others.  This is why I feel like I need to continue to push forward with my plans for a fitness website and several eBooks.  The industry needs more people like Adam Waters (Adam: RTP Blog 2), Tom Venuto (Burn the Fat, Feed the Muscle) and Marc David (No Bull Bodybuilding).  These are people who actually care about the people they are influencing.  They are not out simply to make a buck.

Just yesterday I got an email from Vince Del Monte (No Nonsense Muscle Building) and he expresses frustration with how some people have responded to his website:

“Something cool happened today after I sent that email last night inviting everyone to join my Vince DelMonte “fan group” on Facebook. 
 

For some reason, I had more than double the downloads of my book today and was trying to figure out why…


…as I was doing my second workout tonight it hit me.  There are still a lot of people who think my website is a scam.

 

You should see the emails I get each day from skeptics asking if I'm a real person, why my website is so long, how I sleep at night with all the “made up” testimonials and lots of other interesting comments.

 

Having a website on the Net for almost two years has taught me that it does not matter how many whales I save, how much I donate to third world countries or if I go to church six times a day, people on the net will always think “scam” when they see my “style” of website. “

You see, just the day prior to this email Vince had announced that he was going to be competing in a fitness competition just 25 days from now.  Apparently this got people's attention because, as his email states, the downloads of his book doubled after that email went out.

Vince went on to explain the reaction:

“I think this email helped me prove that my I'm not a scam nor

is my website.  A recent email I got from a fellow who's

been reading my newsletter for ONE YEAR and said confirmed

my thoughts,

 

 “Hey Vince, I went for it and bought your program… it only

took me a year of reading your amazing newsletters…lol.  I

know I could have been one year closer to my goal but, oh well,

it's time to build some muscle like you.”  “

This shows you what people think of genuine “fitness gurus” like Vince.  They see it as a scam and why not?  People need to be careful because there are alot of scammers in the fitness industry.  Certain people get a following of “worshippers” that believe everything they say without question.  This is a dangerous thing.  You need to question.  You need to do this because it makes you think.  Thinking saves you money because you begin to realize while looking at the latest fitness website that you already have a program that is exactly like the one you are about to drop $60 on.  Close that website down because you don't need what they are selling.  What you need is effort and hard work.

There is a funny story about Arnold that exemplifies why it is important to lift heavy weights relative to where you are now:

“A wannabe fan strolled up to Arnold and complained that he couldn't get his calves to grow. “I don't use heavy weights because I want to get a really high intensity burn,” said the fan.  “Listen,” Arnold replied back, straight faced, “if I got a match and lit it under your ass, you'd get a fantastic burn, but it wouldn't help your muscle size.  You have to use heavy weights!”  Not too subtle, but the point was made.“

 

The point of the Question of the Day is to get you to think and to have your thoughts make other people think.  Please, if you have the time, give a quick answer to the Question of the Day.  Don't worry about your answer.  Don't overthink it…just answer.  You will find that the more you answer the questions that are asked the more you will think about your own fitness situation.  This will lead you to a new action plan.  Take action now because each day you wait is another day you could have gotten closer to achieving your goals.

Workout Log:

Today was a cardio only day and I didn't feel like going to the gym.  It was just too nice outside when I got up, so at 4:30 a.m. I hit the streets for a nice run.  I ran for 4 miles at a pace of a 9 minute mile.  It felt great to feel the air hitting my face as I ran through the neighborhood where I live.  Tomorrow is upper body day and I'm looking forward to it.


This is my current workout routine. For more information, click the image above.

M3:D8 Stabilized

By Leave a Comment

Today I worked on my bodyweight routine and it is supposed to be helping my stabilizers.  It is a pretty tough workout even without the weights!  I did 3 circuits today which was exhausting.

I was thinking about how I've stabilized myself the past month.  My nutritional experiment taught me that I can do anything where food is concerned.  When I'm tempted I just remind myself that I can get through it because I've done it before.  That is a stabilizing force and one that will help me cruise through to Level 4 eating.  Right now I'm about Level 3.5. 

I'm getting excited that my bulk is fast approaching.  It will be great to get that going since I've never done it before.  I am still working on building up to the caloric level I'm going to need.  I am going to be eating tons of chicken and tuna!

Workout Log:

Today's workout was all bodyweight.  I really enjoyed it today.  I did 3 full circuits.  The bodyweight rows are awesome and the sets of 25 pullups are incredible for the back.  I can already notice a difference in my core when I do the planks.  I am seeing good results with this program so far.  This week and next are the final stages of the UDT and then I'm on to the body building plan and bulking up!

Thought for the Day:

Stick to your plan long term.  Jumping from one thing to another is not only frustrating but counterproductive.

Question of the Day:

Why don't most of you ever answer the question of the day?  Comment this post to answer the question (if you dare).
