What are thinking about as you drive to the gym?

[mickdoo]

In the 90's I remember reading an article That Yates stated that his main purpose in the gym was to send a message to the particular muscle cells he was training that day. The message was one for stimulus for growth and adaption. This is all he would focus on before he went to the gym and while he was there. Yates went on to say that once the message was sent he stopped. The example he used for stopping was if you hit a nail into a board with a hammer and the nail is embedded in the wood would you keep pounding it afterward? Since then I employ the same method. Make the particular cells you are training an offer they can't refuse to grow.

Its free (minus cost of blank cds) to make your own cds guys, download some soilwork, or parkway drive, or Lamb of God, or Killswitch Engage, than go to the gym! Metal is proven to take your lifting up by 4% more than it normally would be.

I mostly think about my training what exercises im doing, and i actully (in my head) think about winning my show (i do this alot doing cardio) I see myself with my hands raised overhead, and me with my trophy, ect, ect...Honeslty as corny as this may sound, its gets me amost teary eye'd...lol !!! Ever since I was 17-18 I dreamed about winning a big show (like USA or Nats) its something I think about every time I do cardio, ect...Everyone should have a dream, I always believed this, and I think everyone (EVERYONE) should follow threw and try there hardest to get as close to there dream as possiable...This is what life is about, not sitting on your ass, and saying I shouldve or wouldve been if I did this...NO, go after it...dont have any regrets...Just do it, if you fail or dont make it...so who the hell cares, at least you know in your head that you did everything possiable to make it happen...then you can have no regrets...
