Good read, kept my interest.

Making sure you eat healthily can be difficult if you are the type of person who has never watched what they ate but it will play a crucial role during your strength training regimen. It affects everything in your day to day quality of life, from energy, to having healthy skin, to also maintaining a healthy digestive tract. It is recommended to eat every 3 hours to keep your metabolism up and to also ensure you are having an adequate intake of calories. It is especially important to have enough calories throughout the day since you will be burning a lot during your workouts. The goal is to gain muscle, not just to lose weight. That will come with the workouts as you replace unwanted fat with muscle. You will also feel less hungry throughout the day. By replacing larger meals with smaller ones more periodically throughout the day, your stomach will shrink in size. You will also have fewer cravings because your body will not become so hungry that you feel the need to stop at the closest vending machine to load up on junk food. If you eat on a routine basis your body will become used to eating at those times. So say you generally wake up at 6 am, you would then make a routine to eat at 8 am, 12 pm, 5 pm and maybe again at 8 pm. The first step to eating healthy is to begin with eating a nice healthy breakfast. When you do so, you will gain energy for the first hour and you will be less hungry throughout the day.

Calming the mind, fortifying a confident mindset

One of the most important things to remember is that you need to get comfortable being uncomfortable.

Not allowing yourself to stay inside of your comfort zone is going to make it to where you are able to build your mental toughness easier.

Mental toughness is not going to come to you overnight nor is it going to inspire you one day and be gone the next. It is something that you are going to have to work at and build every day.

Toughness training for the mind

In studies that have been done specifically for sports and the mental toughness of athletes, it shows that there is not a common framework between sports such as cricket and soccer, but the definition for mental toughness that was given in the Jones study as well as the Gucciardi study are close to the actual definition of what mental toughness is. A lot of the studies that focus on sports are going to be using the model that was provided by Researcher Clough. As a result there are samples from the athletes that are studied so that links can be shown between the mental toughness of the athlete along with how they cope with the stress they are under, their psychological skills, how they perform, and their emotional reactivity. A study that was published shows that athletes are going to follow the four C’s model which are commitment, confidence, control and challenge. The study also shows that the junior colleagues in businesses are not going to be as tough as the senior managers. Researchers are currently in an active debate about if mental toughness is a characteristic that is developed or if it is something that comes from your genetics.

An Incredibly Valuable Resource for All

According to researchers Jones, Hanton and Connaughton, “Mental toughness is having the natural or developed psychological edge that enables you to generally cope better than your opponents with the many demands (competition, training, lifestyle) that a sport places on a performer, specifically to be more consistent and better than your opponents in remaining determined, focused, confident, and in control under pressure.”

Great applications in business/career settings!

Most people find it helpful to either eat two large meals during the 8 or 10-hour period feeding period or split that time into three smaller meals as that is the way most people are already programmed.

In a class of its own

The main reason why people don’t have success with bodyweight workouts is because they don’t utilize or know the proper way of bodyweight progressions. That leaves them never increasing their resistance.
