Consistency is Key

Whatever your goal, being consistent is going to be one of the most important factors in achieving it.

Too many people work hard for a week, drop off for a week (or two), then come back in week 4.

I constantly harp on doing something, anything, every day toward your goal. Over time, the little things really add up.

If you have set your goal for the remainder of the year, work at it daily. You can even place a reminder on the refrigerator or your bedroom mirror reminding you to take action every day.

As you develop the consistency habit, the necessary action will become easier.

One of my goals is "Never Get Old" was to help people establish lifetime habits. Pick one up today and start establishing habits now.

Recovery is UNDERRATED!

I have been blogging about recovery a lot lately. I think it is definitely the most underrated aspect of training's Big Three (Training, Nutrition, and Recovery).

I got a GREAT night's sleep last night and feel like a million dollars today. When I hit the gym, I will have more energy than if I was sleep-deprived.

Recovery must be seriously emphasized if you want to train better and feel better. And that is really what we all want, right?
