Comment on 9 tips to motivate yourself for the gym by Sally

Thanks. I don’t actually come across that many useful articles on motivation, or lack thereof, and what to do about it. It’s interesting that you’ve added a photo of Arnold here too (looks like the 70s). In one of his books – I think it’s his encyclopedia of modern bodybuilding, Arnold actually does talk about the power of “visualization”. He mentioned that he would always visualize his muscles expanding as he focussed on a particular muscle group. Perhaps you could add this to the list?

Myself I prefer to run on the treadmill, I do not find it easier but the atmosphere is nicer. It is always warm, there is no wind, no rain so nothing can stop me.

Great post! Keep it up! Personally, I think having the self discipline to follow through on one’s goals and expectations is the single most important thing a person needs to have. Not only in sports but in just about everything you do in your life. You’d be crazy to expect getting well-developed muscles if you are not working out religiously or if you are not following a proper diet. Following-through makes all the difference. A fire will eventually die out if you don’t feed fuel to it, but it can grow really big if you fan it and give it more fuel to burn. So, if we’re talking about building muscles, following-through means having and executing the right workout program for you, eating a proper diet, taking in supplements, and living a healthy lifestyle. Have a great day!
