The Goal and Execution Workshop is this Wednesday, the 4th from 7:30pm to 8:30pm! Bring a pen a paper and be ready to write down some notes and start forming your vision of your amazing life!! Here’s a clip from the last workshop I held. I love the reference of the greatest pilot and his plane. A pilot has to have so much planned out just for a 1 hour flight; his destination, weather, speed, desired altitude, a backup plan for when things go wrong, and a TON more. ALL of these details are essential to the pilot reaching his destination safely. Soooooo much thought and planning is put into each flight. Yet for some reason, most people don’t put that same effort, thinking, and planning towards their life. If you want An amazing life, first you have to figure out your destination, then you plan out how you’re going to get there, and last but most important, take ACTION towards that destination consistently everyday! “What if something goes wrong or my plan changes?”- make an adjustment, and keep going!
One of the biggest mistakes almost everybody makes in their workout happens during their warm up. Most people walk into the gym and immediately start doing static stretching, aka stretching without movement. The problem with that is that our muscles are elastic, they need a certain amount of blood flow to happen before the muscle is WARM enough to perform a static stretch. When you do static stretching without warming up first, you actually TEAR your muscles slightly instead of stretch them. This obviously hinders the workout you’re warming up for, and also slows your results; due to the fact that you are starting each workout with tons of tiny micro-tears in muscle fibers you were just stretching.
So never stretch unless you are already warm. The best way to warm up is to move; do some crawling, hanging, mobility, some light cardio, something that will get your heart rate up and increase your blood flow for at least 5-10 minutes. Static stretching is best left for post workout cool downs.
