I’ve never had to worry about how I look. I’ve been training in martial arts since I was 5. I started doing hard-core strength and conditioning routines since I was 12 years old.

But I meet people who don’t look the way they want, and every time they open their mouth, it’s like hearing the same stories over and over again. That’s why I am writing this post, if you are

* Skinny and think you can’t put on muscle

* Overweight and think you can’t go on a diet…

* “skinny fat” where you have no muscularity, but you’re just skinny

Therefore, I can verify that you are this way because of one of these 5 things:

Reason No. 1: You Don’t Have Particular Understanding

* You don’t know how to build strength.

* You have no idea how to watch your weight.

* You don’t know how to eat clean

* You don’t know how to cook, so you only eat fast food and food out of a box.

* You don’t know which training program is the finest.

Knowledge is always the initial step. The primary thing you need to understand is how your body works, how good nutrition and exercise changes the animal - then you realize how to make it do what you want it to do. In your case: change your physique for the better-build muscle and lose fat.

That’s why you’re here. I will give you the know-how you need. Though it’s up to you to use it. Knowledge is NOT power, only APPLIED knowledge is power.

Reason No. 2: You Are Lazy

* You know how to build muscle yet you don’t want to get going.

* You know how to build strength, but you think it’s “too much work”.

* You know how to count the calories, but you create reasons in the same way as “I don’t have the time!”

* You know how to eat nutritious, but then it’s easier to eat convenience food and food in a packaged form

I’m a big fan of being what I call unrealistically lazy. That is to say, I look for the very best ways (specialized knowledge) to achieve the extreme results in the minimum time. Thus, I get in, get it done, and stop. You should be WORTHY of the right to be lazy.

You can read every book on the planet about building muscle and losing fat, but if you never start exercising and eating clean then you’ll never get ANY results. You have to take action. Don’t be afraid of failure, the most successful people realize that their entire life is one big mistake!

Reason No. 3: You Recognize Yourself As “Skinny” or “Fat” or “Not Muscular”

* You think of yourself as “skinny, fat or not muscular” rather than as what you want to be

* It doesn’t bother you a lot that you’re this way at all

* if you actually cared enough, if it concerned you enough, you’d change

* You’re COMFORTABLE with your appearance.

Nowadays being overweight and flabby is considered common. It wasn’t always like this. We used to be hunters and if you weren’t in shape-you were dead-end of story. During the industrial age everybody pulled through on hard physical labor, each person was in shape and buff.

You were considered “sickly” if you were thin and not beefy or laughed at for being flabby. You shouldn’t feel bad about yourself but don’t just say “this is just the way I am”. You can turn out to be whatever you want to become and achieve things you never thought you could achieve if you’re fed up of your present situation and want to change bad enough.

Reason No. 4: You Consider Gaining Muscle and Burning Fat is tough

* You accept terms like “hardgainer” and pertain them to you

* You don’t get results in 2 weeks, therefore you give up

* You leaf through books and magazines that point out “battling the bulge” like it’s hard

Building muscle isn’t all that difficult. If you’ve always been lean, try to get strong. Your body HAVE TO adapt by building muscle to help you get stronger. It’s the way your body works.

Losing fat isn’t tough either. You eat healthy and you stay active. Anyone who says they can’t find 12 minutes a day 3x per week to count the calories is untruthful to themselves.

Fifth Reason: You Are Not Persevering Enough

* You haven’t said “come rain or shine”

* You haven’t said to yourself “failure is not an option”

* You haven’t made up your mind yet that “this is the year I get this sh*t handled!”

The truth is: You can build muscle, burn fat, and reshape your body using just about ANY exercise routine and nutritional program. That’s the reason why there’s so many of them out there. The key to success (ANY success) boils down to 2 things:

1. Make up your mind you’re going to do something and

1. Do it ANYWAY

I used to train with ways I wouldn’t utilize at of the moment. They are not “proper” though it WORKED since I declined to take failure as an alternative. If you too develop the “do or die” attitude, you can pull off no matter what.

I will give you the understanding - or you can see it wherever. I like to think that I know the most immediate, coolest, very competent methods to make it - though you can acquire the knowledge you need from anybody. Besides you don’t need to be all that “positive” in your thoughts. Just come to a decision to go for it as well as look for means to get it through.
