Rebuild Your Mind; Rebuild Your Body

Having come back from a weeks holiday where I will admit that I didn’t eat according to any proper sort of nutrition plan. I was careful when we ate out and we were self catering so I was able to influence what we ate. But we had pizza twice and ready meals as usual. We did only have a cream tea once…

So this morning I get on the scales, which I only do once a week and and I’ve lost a couple of pounds. Was it muscle? Was it fat, water or what? I only exercised once while I was away which was bad and I’m ready to start back on Monday into my programme.

Truth is though that gaining weight for me is difficult.

Which is why I was interested to come back to see that a friend of mine has just issued a couple of free reports (audio and pdf) about the research behind the new program which he is launching next week.

One thing I did do while I was away was to do some people watching, and I was surprised to see just how many guys, mature guys that is, who are frankly skinny. At least that is in terms of musculature. That creeping middle age spread starts coming in from the early thirties so there are a lot of men who fall into the skinny fat category.

Now, don’t get me wrong, I am adding muscle even though I do easily fall into the hardgainer category, but I’m waiting for the launch with interest. Jeff has given me copies of the free reports and I’m suitably impressed so far with his logic. He isn’t revealing all to me just yet, but I can say with confidence that I will be getting a copy of the programme and seeing how well it fits with my own.

Check it out and let me know what you think. I had to laugh though because I am guilty of telling hardgainers that poor nutrition is a primary cause of them not gaining weight. I’m not going to back track on that, but I am willing to consider if I’ve been wrong on the subject – at least in some cases. I’m more interested in finding something that works better than in being embarrassed by being proved wrong.

I really recommend that you go and check the free reports out and see if you recognise yourself in any of the guys there. One of them is the skinny fat shape which I think many of us fall into, so I’m going to be very interested in seeing how he gets on.

When you start out, building muscle seems such a challenge, such a huge obstacle that I doubt few ever consider that one day they might be too successful.

I was reading the blog of Jason Ferruggia about his recovery from injury and his decision to regain all of the weight that he lost.

Once you’d got the building bug, how do you know when enough is enough? Gaining muscle can be addictive, especially if you developed complexes about not having it in the first place.

Body image is something that is hard to judge, hard to be realistic about. I made the decision not to build too much because for me lightness and agility count for at least as much as brute force.

Do you really understand what it is that drives you into the obsession that is building muscle? Will you know when enough is enough?
