I know it's been a while since I last blogged. Sorry about that. Well about determination and hard work. These two are required to achieve results from exercise and even your everyday life. They both go hand in hand as you will see after reading this blog. Anyways onto the subject. First off, we'll start with determination.
Determination is something you NEED no matter what your doing whether it's fitness related, work related, etc. If you don't have determination, the chances are you will not finish the goal properly or even not finish it at all. I have trained a bunch of people over the years and could tell if the person I am training has the determination or not. Those without it last about two weeks and then stop because results aren't coming quick enough and they don't want to put in the hard work. They learn a new exercise or program and have problems mastering it, then they get up and quit because it's too hard. Those are the people I find to be a waste of time. On the other hand, you got those that have determination who don't stop or quit because things are tough. They keep trying and eventually master the exercise or program. Those are the people who I love to train. When the program gets tough, they work tougher then they would ever imagine to beat the program. And after a month or so of that, they achieve results and keep shooting for new goals.
Now onto the hard work part. Every session you do, hard work is a must or otherwise you are just wasting your time and your trainers as well. Some trainers don't care because they get paid one way or another but I,on the otherhand,would like to see my client work his or her butt off and know they got a hard workout in which in time will deliver great results. Hard Work=Hard Body.
You saw a picture of myself when I did this three month transformation contest and lost 47 lbs. Everyone asked about my "secret" and it was simply determination and hard work. The diet and exercise of course played a role but the determination made me go through my tough diet plan with no issues or cheat meals and the hard work helped me bust my butt in the gym and 5 a.m. morning cardio sessions. I never realized the importance of these two things until I finished this contest and WON. I hope this was a great help for you. And by next month, These pictures should be in muscular development magazine so if you are interested, check it out.
