Training For True Strength!

strength by Karl's...give me strength (CDL) by notnA

If you want to obtain true strength then you have to practice to be stronger! Strength is about progression. This means that you have to gradually intensify and practice whatever feat of strength you want to improve on over time in order to obtain huge gains in strength. The key to getting stronger involves you being consistent, unrelenting, and progressive in your purpose and approach.

For instance, if you want to improve on the number of pull-ups that you can do then you need to practice doing pull-ups frequently. When I say frequently I mean throughout the day and everyday if possible. The key is to not train your muscle to absolute failure. You want to tension the muscle over time in order to get it conditioned for movement. Your fitness training program can be catered for you to obtain real muscular power and core strength by attempting whatever task you want with consistent practice and variation. If you are trying to get better at something like the pull-ups and master doing 10 or so with your own body-weight then practice doing 3 to 5 with added weight. Once you master the newly added weight and can do 10 or so reps then add more weight. You see the way I'm going with this, right?

Take the time to improve on your lift or task of choice. Make sure that you maintain the tension of your body by practicing often. This is what will get you to levels that will ultimately impress you once you implement this strategy over time!

True Strength - The Second Definition - It Goes Beyond Muscles!

I want to touch on the other definition of strength. I know that I have defined it in terms of the muscles and the importance of tension, but I want to talk about the mental attitude of strength.

Strength is something that goes beyond muscles. I want to say that as a business owner and strength and conditioning specialist that mental attitude is the true powerhouse of your life and your success as it develops both in and out of the weight-room. If I have learned one thing about being successful in anything in life it has everything to do about your attitude. I believe that life is about 10% of what happens to you and 90% of how you react to it. I also believe that these reactions to life can be heavily influenced by how proactive you can be with how you pursue it. Life is relatively short and time is always an issue. Whether you are pursuing a fit body or a successful business I believe you have to do it with a high level of planning and efficiency! By doing this you can execute many small goals at a time that eventually get you to the BIG ONE. Just like working-out I believe that you have to have goals and a well-structured plan to get to those goals.

The strength is going to come from you not giving up and aggressively getting back up to continue fighting even if you fall. Don't be soft!

The second definition of strength goes beyond muscles. This is your mental toughness and attitude. React with your goals in mind.
