Success, how?

For me there are 5 key aspects to any success whether it's business, health or relationships and it's really a road to self discovery. I used to read a lot of stories about 'secret to my success' and I thought all you needed was luck. That's not the case, well not for me. I consider myself very successful in all aspects of my life, what I found that got me there was a few simple rules and a lot of hard work.


Hard working:
This is the most important point, you must be hard working with an 'I CAN' attitude...

Boost your Metabolism: Naturally

I really don't believe in all the off the shelf 'Metabolism Boosters'. I've found through food, spices/teas and exercise their not needed, in fact they don't even compare, and with all the added health benefits you get through foods etc, it's a winning combination for anti cancer, good health and longevity.

When trying to speed up your metabolism you should always try and follow the following rules:

Protein:
You should always eat protein, whole protein (not shakes) raises the metabolism by causing the body to expend a high amount of calories simply breaking it down. Protein is also essential if you're aiming for maximum fat loss because it's the one tissue that will literally save your muscle cells...

So, you're a beginner

First and foremost, if you're a beginner you need to look at technique, flexibility issues and imbalances because I know my own muscle imbalances and inflexibility issues lead to injuries, I've had shoulder surgery and lower back problems. Don't take this issue lightly. Seek out a trainer that can pinpoint these issues before they take you out of training either temporarily or permanent.

I really do think to build decent size you need a solid strength base, the more weight you can move without a tendon bounce and good form the greater potential you'll have in gaining size faster without being disappointed. A beginner with size as a focus will fail without a good strength base, so do yourself a favor and do your time under the bar using good form and following a strength routine. Doesn't really matter what one, there is no magic routine just progressing.

To me, a beginner is someone that has been either lifting a year or less, or someone that has potentially been lifting many years and has failed to achieve results...
