Continuing with Part 2 of this 3 part article. Part 3 coming soon!

TAKE YOUR TRAINING SERIOUSLY - Part 2

People who are successful with their fitness realize that exercise must be a main focus of their life, even more than that it must be a lifestyle. These people will make the sacrifices necessary to get into the gym when they don’t have time and eat right when they are on the road. They have taken control of their lives and hold themselves accountable for their decisions, not blaming someone else for why they aren’t in shape. They also realize that a successful exercise program is not to be fun, it is to be a challenge. You are to hate it, but also love it. And they are always up for the challenge. A successful person will view their training the same way a successful athlete would view their training. Because in reality you are very similar to an athlete. The athlete is training for their particular sport and to be able to handle everything that is thrown at them. And you are training for life and to be able to handle the physical challenges thrown at you everyday.

People who are successful with their fitness program believe in themselves and believe they can achieve the results they are looking for regardless of how hard it may be. They believe in themselves and that they will be successful. If you don’t believe that you will achieve your goals how do you expect to see results? You can’t. By believing that you will reach your goal you give yourself that extra drive to keeping pushing when you don’t want to and would rather go home. That is what makes the difference between reaching your goal and not reaching it.
