1. Keep
a constant track of the foods you eat, when and how much. Along with
this analyze key points including weight, waistline,
site measurements, energy levels and performance levels. This diary will
leave a clue! From here, make SMALL changes to your diet as you
progress and reassess how they impact your progress. Tracking your diet
AND the criteria above can be a game changer for you.
2.
Every rep, every set and every workout should be logged! What this will
do is create a performance bar for you to strive for and ultimately
beat over a period of
time. Provided you are using the multiple rep ranges, using correct periodization, correct rep tempo and rest periods
this will equate to forced adaptation within the body over the entire
muscle fiber population and throughout your energy systems. This means a
bigger, leaner and more powerful athlete ultimately!
3. Allow
your body to rest! Adequate sleep and rest are completely over looked I
feel by many individuals
which is a huge error. Rest and recovery is where the body really
develops, having responded to the stimulus (the training). People should try to aim for 8 hours sleep per night and IF they have the
time/convenience I feel some "power" naps can be really beneficial
during the day. Having enough rest days is also important I feel for a
number of reasons, particularly in order to keep your CNS fresh which
will help support better muscle fiber contractions during your workouts
and this equates to
better results!
