More Laws
Now that everyone has gone gaga over “The Secret” and the “Law of Attraction”, lets realize that there are other laws that govern the universe. Lets focus on “The Law of Purpose”.
What is the purpose you awake at 5:00 in the morning to go for a run, or drink a slimy greens drink? Why do people do things they do?
When committing oneself to a venture there must be a purpose. The purpose must be worthwhile and good for the person. If my goal is to run a marathon, the chances are I will likely succeed better then when compared my reason of just liking to run. That is important too, but without the higher purpose it become easy to get sidetracked. A purpose must be established and understood in order find fulfillment in the goal.
Besides not having a goal, a poorly directed purpose also becomes a problem. Just like the purpose of a business is not to gain profits, in strength training it is not to get huge. Am I crazy? A business is not meant to make profits? No I am not, its meant to make and retain customers. That is where your profits will come from. In strength training it is to rip and rebuild muscle fibers. The result will be to increase mass. This is done by planning workouts and keeping track of daily progress. Then monthly progress.
You should not measure your arm everyday to see if it grew! You should make sure that you are on track by lifting on your proper days. Once you do the exercise, your purpose will come.
