I’m often asked by people how they can stay motivated or how they can be driven to succeed. And well, being motivated and driven is good, the problem is that it never lasts. A lot of people don’t like hearing that. They’ve read “The Secret” and have a pile of self help books telling them that positive thinking is what they need to do. I’m sorry, it’s not going to help you.

Here’s the deal…

When you try something new or in a long process your emotions will go through a roller coaster. You’ll have highs that will make you feel like no one can stop you and lows where you don’t want to do anything. This roller coaster has been experienced by me no matter what I do.

When you’re looking to get motivated or driven, you’re actually waiting for your emotions to get that way. That actually makes you dependent on them. This makes you more susceptible to the problems of the roller coaster. When you’re on the highs, you’ll be motivated and driven, but on those lows you’ll have nothing to get you out of bed.

Don’t play the roller coaster game

I don’t look to my emotions to get me going to do the things that make up bodybuilding. I know that if I choose that path I’ll be on a roller coaster. What I’ve learned is that habit is how you get successful. This is what will lead to consistent bodybuilding.

You have to train your mind and body to do bodybuilding regardless of how you feel. It’s sort of like brushing your teeth everyday. You do it regardless of your emotional state. It doesn’t matter if you lost your job or you got a promotion, you’re going to brush your teeth tonight. This is what we want to happen for bodybuilding.

The key to building a habit is repetitive behaviors over approximately 21 days. It has been proven that if you do something everyday for 21 days, it’ll turn into a habit. It might take a little longer for bodybuilding since you won’t be at the gym each day. The key is to take advantage of that momentum when you first start and remain consistent for a least a few months. After that point, it’s become a habit and you’ll do it regardless of how you feel.

I’m often asked this question. Cane you bodybuild fast? I have to say yes and no.

The fact is that your body can only product so much muscle at a time. There is just too many limitations, so you can only product so much of it. The reality of the situation is that people don’t have their body really running at peak muscle building performance, so there is definitely room to build faster.

My belief is that most people can improve the speed in which things happen, but there’s a limit to how fast you really can go.

To make things fast, you need to take advantage of all those little biological functions that you can. Use the momentum whatever to build muscle. That’s what it is all about. Taking advantage of everything your body offers you.

You need a full night of sleep, but you also need protein to build muscle while you sleep. The solution is cottage cheese. It’s high in fat and protein. The fat slows down digestion, so the protein will digest as you sleep all night.

You need to stress your muscles to stimulate growth. Don’t waste your time doing petty little exercises. Start doing the big ones. Deadlifts and squats will change the way your body builds muscles, for the better.

There are so many little things you can take advantage of that will help you achieve this. Can you bodybuild fast? Yes, if you turn yourself into a well running machine.

I thought it would be interesting if I made a post on the things that I did that were mistakes. I know a lot of people out there are making mistakes because I see it in the gym everyday. I used to do things that I knew were wrong, but I did it just because everyone else was doing it. It’s funny how there is a pull on your thoughts when other people are doing something and you’re sort of the lone person that understands it is wrong.

1. Getting Addicted

This happens to a lot of people. They just really get into it. The reason it gets addictive is that your body will produce adrenalin while you workout and it produces quite an addictive feeling. Obviously the problem with this is overdoing it and burning out. When you’re addicted, you just want to workout more often and longer. You run the risk of hurting yourself.

As for burning out, this sort of goes with the whole emotional roller coaster of bodybuilding. You’re going to put all this emotional energy into your workouts and when you hit a low, you’re just going to crash and burn. It’s sort of like those people on January 1st that are going to lose weight. The first week of the year at the gym is packed. Everyone is full of life and ready to put their new years resolution into reality. Well, as each week goes by, less and less people come. This is what a burn out causes.

2. Sit ups and Crunches

I’ve expressed and I hope you know, these are probably the most useless exercises you’ll end up doing. They don’t produce the results you want, they don’t eliminate the fat on the stomach, but you see a ton of people at the gym doing it.

I would do these even though I knew they didn’t produce results. I felt like I was a hypocrite at the gym doing them too. I guess that is the pull of collective thinking and you really do have to watch out for it. The majority of what people do at the gym is probably wrong.

3. No Squats or Deadlifts

I went for the longest time without doing these two exercises. I’d have excuses like my legs are already big to begin with. I didn’t realize how important these exercises were. They will help your entire body, not just your legs. If you’re not doing these now, you should definitely start!!!

I thought I’d share a few diet tips with you to help you get maximum muscle growth. I firmly believe in diet as the most important part of this process because I lived it. I do the same exercises at the gym, no matter if I’m putting on muscle or taking off fat. The only thing that changes during that time is my diet. I think that should really illustrate the importance of a proper diet.

Tip 1: Plan It Out

The worst thing you can do is just try to wing it. I know people that don’t have a plan and they walk into the kitchen when they’re hungry. What do you think the odds are of making the best decision while you’re hungry? Not very good. It’s sort of like going to the grocery store on an empty stomach. You’re supposed to go to the grocery store with a list, so you get what you need and nothing more.

The same thing needs to be applied with a diet. At the minimum, you should know exactly what you’re going to eat the next day. Nothing should be a surprise.

Tip 2: Routine

I typically eat the same meals everyday, except for dinner. Routine is an amazing and powerful force you can take advantage of. It sort of fits in with the role of planning, but the more consistent you behave, the more likely you’ll continue to act that way.

Studies have shown that world class athletes that actually have the lowest body fat percentage actually eat the same things everyday.

Tip 3: Limit Variety

A lot of people don’t like this rule because we all like variety. The problem with variety is the thinking that comes along with it. I usually don’t like to condemn the mind, but when you have all this choice, you have to think about what you’re going to do. A lot of the time you’re just not in the mood to think and that leads to you cheating.

If you just keep things simple, with a plan to develop a routine and limit the amount of choices you have, you’ll increase your success with your diet and that leads to you maximizing your muscle growth.

So I take it you’re looking to prepare for a female bodybuilding competition. Well, I certainly wish you luck and hope you’ve already been training very exclusively like this. When it comes to the competition, your goal changes from putting on a good amount of muscle without too much fat, to taking off as much fat as possible while maintaining muscle. The key to this whole process is definition and that comes by literally removing the fat off your body.

As you can see, the fat is trimmed completely off and it exposes the muscles. That’s what the judges are looking for. They want to see how much you can show as just muscle. That’s what it’s all about. You don’t actually have to put on a lot of muscle because when you’re that defined it makes you look like you have much more of it.

To actually to the female bodybuilding competition, you’re going to have time this all out. You can’t say at that low of a body fat percentage for a long period of time. It’s can be unhealthy if you’re like that for more than a few days. That’s why the timing is so important. You have to plan out two months in advance when you’ll reach that state and you have to make sure it lands perfectly for the competition.

Always plan it out. You have to do it because it’s the only way you’ll get it to work. I wish you the best of luck at your competition and hope you come back a winner.

I wanted to talk to you about female bodybuilder muscle. A lot of women don’t think it is possible to really get the muscle they need to be competitive. I think that is quite an ignorant attitude because it may a more difficult process than it is for men, but with a little hard work a dedication you can achieve it. I really wish most women wouldn’t get down about it because it doesn’t get you anywhere. I know we all get in those emotional downs and if you’re just going to wallow in self pity, you’re just going to extend the problem. Winners are the ones that keep themselves going, even if they feel down. Female bodybuilder muscle is achievable, if you’re willing to bust your butt for it.

Obviously the best thing you can do is work a routine. Routines are considered the fundamentally the most important thing in determining what you’ll do tomorrow. Think of it like brushing your teeth. Everyone has this routine. It doesn’t matter if you’re having a high for the day or you’re having a crashing low, you’re probably going to brush your teeth. This is the type of thing we want to develop. We want you to do the necessary actions of bodybuilding, no matter how you’re feeling. We want it to be a routine that doesn’t require you to do any thinking, just action.

Lastly, female bodybuilder muscle is something that takes time. I know we live in this world of instant gratifications, but you have to break this mode of thinking. You’re not going to get out of debt in a day, you’re not going to start a successful business in a day and you’re not going to put on a huge sum of muscle in a day. All you can do in a day is take the necessary steps down the road and make sure you continue doing it.

I hope this motivates you. With all the doom and gloom on the television about the economy, sometimes we need that up beat message to keep us moving forward.

I wanted to take the time to talk to you about bodybuilding for women. This is a tough sport for anyone, but for all the women out there bodybuilding represents a social astigmatism of something that no woman should ever attempt. Things have progressed a lot over the years and more women are joining this great sport. The number one reason I believe women join this sport is due to the fact that life becomes stale. You do the same thing everyday. Living life is about purpose and facing challenges and this is exactly what bodybuilding for women does. I’m going to show you enough to help you start out in this sport.

Your diet is the number one factor that will determine your success in bodybuilding. You can go to the gym and spend hours there, but it won’t make any difference if you don’t properly feed your body, which grows the muscles. I think one of the easiest things you can do is to start eating smaller meals every 3 hours. This type of eating makes sure your body is always digesting nutrients. This constant flow of nutrients ensures your muscles will always have enough to grow.

The workout you do is important. I know when I started, I just tried to copy what everyone else is doing. You have to realize that most people at the gym are morons and have no clue what they’re doing. It seems to be a place where everyone is trying to copy what everyone else is doing and there seems to be no one working out with correct information. The key to success is doing compound exercises. These will promote more muscle stimulation than you’ll get with the other exercises.

Natural female bodybuilding is one of the hardest things to achieve. Not only as females are we not designed to build muscle, but we also have much less in resources available to us, to help us be better at this sport. There is a lot of hype like this, in any area of the body, and it makes it twice as hard for most people in this sport. You can’t tell if something is the truth or just misinformation that is just going to waste your time. Well, most of it is. Rarely do people sit down and do countless hours of scientific research on the subject. All the generalized information is passed on. Well, I’m going to share with you the proven natural female bodybuilding methods that will revolutionize the way you train.

Diet is going to make or break you and if you want to do the natural female bodybuilding experience, diet becomes everything. The nutrients you eat are going to determine how well your results will be. If you choose to eat sloppy, than your results will be sloppy. I’m sure you’ve heard the saying “you are what you eat”. Well, it is true. Starting smaller meals more often. This will give your body a consistent flow of nutrients throughout the day, so your muscles can repair properly.

The proven natural female bodybuilding in the gym is more surprising. 95% of people at the gym spend most of their time on isolated workouts that focus on one muscle. To get great results, you need to do compound exercises. The kinds that work huge portions of the body, like deadlifts and squats.

Take the time to cut through the misinformation of bodybuilding with the Women’s Bodybuilding Course.

The female bodybuilding diet is the most important part of this process. As women, we don’t have a lot of physical traits that can help us in this sport, so it requires a tough diet. I started around a decade ago and in that time I had to learn how to do things correctly. Trial and error was my teacher because everything was designed for men. In that time I worked hard and learned what was necessary to be successful.

The most important point about a good female bodybuilding diet is the construct of eating smaller meals more often. This is something you can’t get around. The female body isn’t designed to put on muscle that well, so you have to take advantage of your biology and make sure the maximum amount physically possible is created. By eating these smaller meals throughout the day, you give your body a consistent flow of nutrients that end up being used to repair and grow muscle tissue.

As for the overnight hours, you’re faced with the challenge of needing sleep and nutrients at the same time. Obviously, if you get up to eat, your quality of sleep goes down. If you sleep and don’t eat, you run out of nutrients. The key is to eat a combination of protein and fat before bed, like cottage cheese. The fat slows down the digestive process, so the protein will last long into the night as you sleep.

I wanted to take the time to talk to you about the top 5 female bodybuilding mistakes you might make. Avoiding these is very important to your success. This is a daily battle and you have to make sure you are the victor of each of them.

Mistake 1: Isolated Exercises Get Priority

When I goto the gym, so many people are doing isolated exercises and they’re such a waste of time. Why would people do these? I don’t know why, I wish I did, but the fact is the compound exercises are the ones that are going to give you far better results. That means doing squats and deadlifts will give better results than bicep curls.

Mistake 2: Not Eating Often Enough

A lot of people don’t want to change the timing of their diet. They’d rather stick with three meals a day or the dreaded 2 meals a day (breakfast skipped). Your body repairs muscle tissue over time, so it needs nutrients consistently. That means you should eat every few hours.

Mistake 3: Not Enough Sleep

You can’t bodybuild on 5-6hrs a night. It just doesn’t cut it. You have to get at least 8-9hrs a night because this is the biggest time for muscle repairs.

Mistake 4: Avoiding Fat

Society has made us believe that eating fat is bad. People think that there is a direct correlation between dietary fat and your body fat. This is totally false. By eating fat, you can increase your metabolism and end up burning more calories than you consume from the fat. Not to mention it plays a vital role in hormone production and other important body functions.

Mistake 5: Not Eating in the Evening

You should be eating in the evening because you need to have nutrients to repair muscle over your long sleep. The key is to eat a high fat, high protein combination of food. This way, the fat slows down the digestive process and you’ll get protein throughout the night.
