How To Train Your Mind And Body Like A Warrior
Your body requires a continual stream of new challenges or it will stop changing. Your body is simply too smart to keep on changing if you keep on providing it with the same challenges.
Now a major problem here is that constantly challenging your body is not an easy undertaking. In reality, it can become a very big chore if you are not mentally prepared. And most people simply do not have what it takes to always be pushing the limits of their performance.
So without further ado, here is how to set your mind in the right mode to obtain peak training:
1. Bust out of habits: Constantly try new things. By doing this you will train your mind to do something counterintuitive: venture into the unknown. And venturing into new territory is key if you want to keep on getting results.
2. Quantify the risk: If you’re afraid to try out a new combination of exercises or a new class that is very intense, write down the worst case scenarios. In other words, quantify the risks and make a pro and con list of sorts. More often than not, you will notice how exaggerated your fears are.
