Sunday Fun Day!

So today was pretty chill, I usually use sundays to prep for monday. However today I got in some great time with the Aunt and Uncle. We moved logs and it was a good time. This of course happened after my Back and Bicep workout. Yeah I definitely pick the right days to workout those muscles. Today's training was a little more mental than most. I was asked when I started this blog to include the mental aspect of bodybuilding. Since I consider myself a novice at this I can only explain what I have dealt with personally. I had a gym guru tell me once that this sport is just as much mental as it is physical. You have to make a distinct connection with your mind and muscles. No one in the business does this better than IFBB Pro Kai Greene. If you get a chance look him up on youtube the man is incredible, a true cerebral warrior. However enough about him, my mental aspect on this is to this extent. When I work my back I try to visualize the muscles I am working since I can't really see them I try to place emphasis on the areas I am attempting to make grow. Deadlifts one of my new lifts that I am still working out the kinks to I have to mentally see my lower back squeezing at a certain point other wise I get nothing out of the lift. This has helped me more than I can ever relate. The connection between mind and muscle is a often under valued connection. So when you lift think of the area's that you are working trust me if growth or leanness is what your going for it will help you, and could be that little extra you are missing.

P.S. On a side note I saw something quite disturbing today, those that know me know I used to be a fat kid, and I still have those tendencies. I saw a little child today that was pudgy. He was with his gma at the store anyway long story short he got some change back and when his gma asked for it, he wanted to keep it so he could put it on his lunch charge at school. When the gma asked why he needed the extra money he said cause he was fat and liked to eat extra snacks. Hummm and we wonder why we have become an obese nation. I just hope that this doesn't come back and bite me in the ass later....

Train hard!
