The Six Pillars of Physical Success
1️⃣Intensity and Mindset🔥
Are you taking the correct rest periods between sets? Are you on your phone frequently during the workout with your mind away from present? Are you performing your accessory muscle-building exercises with high intensity and to occasional technical/muscular failure? I advise taking at least one set per exercise to failure when doing bodybuilding work.
2️⃣Water💧
Are you drinking at least half of your bodyweight in ounces of water? A 280-pound man should shoot for 140 ounces of water a day.
3️⃣Nutrition🍱
Are you eating enough calories to facilitate your goals? Are you eating enough protein? 1g of protein per pound of bodyweight is a good start.
4️⃣Sleep😴
Are you getting 7 to 10 hours of good quality sleep per night?
5️⃣Technique🏋️🏼♂️
Are you setting up correctly? Are you breathing and bracing correctly? Most of the little details are in setting up and not during the actual lift.
6️⃣Consistency🔄
Are you achieving 1 through 5 on a near 100% consistent basis? Every day for numbers 2, 3, and 4 and every opportunity for 1 and 5.
If you are not making progress in your physical pursuits, it is almost guaranteed to be because you are falling short in one of the six pillars. You must be honest with yourself when evaluating whether you are are doing these things at 100%. Unfortunate things happen and sometimes we will fall short and it will be out of our control. Just because it is not our fault, does not mean it will not negatively affect our results. When thinking of the reasons why you fall short of 100% in all 6, be honest with yourself whether it is truly in your control or not. If it is and you want maximal progress, you will have to alter your behavior to make it happen or face the fact that you are holding yourself back from your true potential.
