How Cars4Us Delivers Top-Tier Rides for the Modern Man’s Lifestyle
As our fitness industry becomes increasingly saturated with new trends, so do a host of fabricated reasons why we must do every single one of them.
The emergence of these new “fads” can leave us confused with what training to do, how often to do it and which one will help us achieve our goals.
We should not hide away from the important fact that sometimes (pretty much always), we should stick to the basics.
The question that you need to ask yourself is: “What do you want to achieve from your training?”
For the vast majority of us who are not elite athletes, common goals and reasons for training often include the following:
The question remains – what can someone who isn’t training for competition, do to achieve and reach these sometimes (self-proclaimed) unattainable goals? It’s simple…
If in doubt, train like an athlete.
When athletes train, their minds aren’t focused on aesthetics (looking good, coincidentally, happens to be a convenient bi-product of effective training). Their focus is on aspects of their performance and movement, it’s on achieving the goals they have set out, day by day, week by week. Each session is executed with intent and focus, each muscle fires when it should, with zero skipped repetitions, whilst constantly remaining mindful of good form and movement.
Every session is planned and programmed by a qualified professional, with a long-term plan in place. Each individual session is another step closer to reaching their ultimate goal. Even during off-season, athletes are disciplined and consistent.
There are 4 principles that can be followed when things get a little too complicated and your routine is screaming out for simplicity and consistency.
Find a programme. A good and effective programme will align with every goal we mentioned above. It will provide the following benefits;
Perform quality not quantity. (not to be mistaken with not lifting heavy).
Set goals, regularly. Goal setting is a non-negotiable.
Appreciate the importance of rest. Overtraining and fatigue are the number one cause of injury.
Self care should be a priority for all, looking after your body as opposed to persistently trying to get skinny or shredded will deliver a far greater return. It instills discipline when motivation is absent, respect when what you see may not always be perfect, and education on your strengths and weaknesses, both external and internally.
