When the goal is changing your physique, you need a lot of tools in your metaphorical toolbox.
Weight training
Conditioning
Mobility
Nutrition
Sleep
Stress management
Recovery
Hydration
But there’s something else. Something so important, the other tools are useless without it. It’s the heavy-duty ratchet screwdriver of the gym world, if you like.
Mindset
If your mindset isn’t right, all the training plans and meal prep sessions and early nights won’t get you to your ultimate goal.
Fix your mindset and make faster progress
Think like an athlete – approach training & nutrition as an important part of life
Feel excited and proud – have positive emotions about the journey
Get geeky about your progress - measure and track as much as you can
Appreciate daily wins – don’t wait for your main goal, celebrate along the way
Be patient – things won’t change overnight, cultivate patience
Realistic timeframes – choose goals appropriate to your skill & experience
Stay consistent – it might take a while to reach your goal, be consistent with your daily actions
My clients all feel like superstar athletes – it’s how we train!
