Don't Believe the Hype - Just Believe in yourself
People are always looking for an easy way out, especially Americans. We are constantly looking for things that will make our lives easier, no matter what the cost or the effect it will have on our bodies over time. Marketers are making a killing off of this, especially within the last several years. Think about how many tele-marketing commercials you see or hear over the course of the day on average – especially those about how easy it is to be fit and healthy. They’re everywhere 24/7!
Just think about one of the last infomercials you heard. Now think to yourself how many people immedietly picked up their phones and dialed in to get their hands on it. Many bodybuilders aren’t much different – we run out to buy the newest, latest and greatest supplement that advertises steroid like gains. No supplement will have steroid like results unless you are taking steroids. We put off the time tested and true such as weight gainers and creatine for something new, and possibly ineffective in a non-lab setting. I see more young guys quitting because they expect too much and don’t achieve it, then get disappointed in themselves and just give up completely. They eat randomly, workout half-assed, and then make up excuses when no changes happen, then typically quit.
People who develop their bodies to the look that they strive for most likely get that way through hard work and never letting up. You must have a never say die attitude. Not only in the gym, but also in all aspects of life. Never let anyone tell you that it is impossible, or that it’s just a stupid idea. People say that to me everyday, and then are amazed and sometimes jealous when I actually go out and do it, and then succed.
On your way to the gym, think of the last time someone doubted you and picture the weights are all those people trying to stop you or hold you down. Carry this gladiator like mentality into the gym with you and see how good your workout is. Next time you are in the gym and coming close to that last rep, say to yourself never give up. Think of the movie Waterboy to get my point. (Hopefully you’ve seen it).
Bodybuilding is not a place for lazy people or people who try to find the easiest way out of things. It’s for people who bust through things. Barriers exist only to be broken, and that is why we are in the weight room, to push ourselves beyond these imaginary walls.
