Change Your Mindset to Achieve Permanent Weight Or Fat Loss

I firmly believe that if people were honest with themselves most would say "I wish I had more muscle", "I wish I had less fat around my belly" or "I wish my butt was firmer". Some women still think adding muscle to their frame will make them appear bulky but I know of very few that wouldn't want to add more muscle to their bodies especially their legs. That rock hard chiseled muscle look is what attracts the opposite sex. I think most people have heard physical attraction is first when you initially meet someone so what gives a better first impression than a lean hard muscular physique?

The problem is that most people have the desire but very few follow through and do something about it. IF they do something about it, its usually short lived. If you go to a gym I encourage you to look around at the people working out around you. Does that guy or gal on the stair-master look the same as he did last year? How about the guy working on his biceps and flexing after he does a set? Probably so. That is because they do the same thing workout after workout. They keep thinking the same way so they keep getting the same results. Nil. The first step in changing your physique is changing your mindset. You change how you think and I guarantee you you will make huge gains in strength and big strides towards your efforts to the body you desire.

You must understand and accept that what got you the body you have today, assuming it needs work, will not get you where you want to go with your physique. Very few people make a goal and actually stick with it. So, your understanding and accepting that you must change your mind set must be coupled with their will be obstacles that come up. Plan for these. Its part of life. Just remember to zig after zagging. Remember few people make a goal and achieve it in a linear fashion. Its extremely rare but those that stick to it and continue to overcome obstacles eventually achieve what they set out to.

Once you have changed your mindset, and have written down your goals, which I certainly hope you do if your serious about achieving them, the next thing I would encourage you to do is keep it simple. Most people have really complicated diets and workout routines. The basics have worked for years and years and they will continue to work. That means you don't need a bunch of supplements and a fancy gym to get in really good physical shape. Fruits, vegetables and a solid workout routine with the right intensity will usually get you the body you desire. Throw in plenty of motivation, a written plan and consistency and before you know it you'll be shocked at what you achieved in a short amount of time.

If you drop out or "fall off the wagon" get right back on immediately.
