One of the most important parts of your anatomy that can really help you build muscle fast, is your mind.
If you can turn your mind onto the goal of building muscle by setting yourself targets to achieve, you will amazed by the results.
Your mind is a powerful tool that can help you reach your goals faster.
But first you need to know what those goals are exactly.
To begin with, start to think about the poundage you currently use in your basic exercises.
On a piece of paper, draw a line down the middle.
Now on the left side at the top write current poundage, and on the right side at the top write goal poundage.
Use a five percent a week increase as your guide because that is what you should be increasing your poundage each week if you are training the right way.
Now, list the exercises in your current routine, and along side them write down the goal poundage that you should aim for over the next four weeks.
For example if you are currently bench pressing 200 pounds, then your four week goal would be roughly 245 pounds.
Do the same thing with all your current exercises.
Now you have a very specific goal that you can realistically aim for over the next four weeks.
You have looked at what you are currently lifting in each exercise, and you have used a forward gauge to measure your progress against.
Next thing to do is to burn that goal into your minds.
To make it so clear and specific inside your mind that you can't help but make it a reality.
Here's what I want you to do next: Write down each exercise, along with the goal poundage on a piece of paper twenty-five times, in your own hand writing.
Yeah, yeah.
I know it involves a little work, but it will worth it in the long run.
Go ahead and write out your goal for each exercise twenty-five times on a piece of paper.
This simple exercise will tell your mind that you are serious about making this goal a reality.
You see, repetition is critical to tapping into your mind power.
You need to reinforce that goal in your mind until it becomes a burning drive deep down inside.
That way when you're in the gym, sweating and straining under the weight of your goals, you'll push that much harder to achieve them.
Don't make the mistake of thinking this is just a bunch of hokey pokey.
Sports science has known for years that your mind is probably eighty percent of the whole game.
So go get that piece of paper and write down your goals, then write them down another twenty-five times.
Then watch the magic as your muscle gains explodes beyond belief.
