Interessanter Beitrag von Max Shank zu der richtigen Auswahl an Übungen, Sportlichen Aktivitäten und der Herangehensweise zur eigenen Körperlichen Leistungsfähigkeit sowie dem Erscheinungsbild. (Beitrag auf Englisch)

This will help you determine whether you are doing the “right” exercise for YOU. I like to use a 10-scale for each (10 being the most fun, safe, effective.)

1) Fun Factor
If something is a lot of fun and requires zero willpower, put a 10/10. If something is not enjoyable and requires lots of willpower give it a 1/10.

2) Risk Analysis
Simply evaluate the injury risk of an activity. I would argue that Muay Thai would be near a 1 (highly dangerous) and Pilates or #5minuteflow would be a 10/10 (very safe).

3) Result Producing
Identify HOW WELL the activity brings you closer to a goal. For example, 1 hour walking on the treadmill, while a great idea, is about a 1/10 effectiveness for developing larger biceps.

If you scored, 30, then great job! It means you’re likely to stay consistent long enough for the BIG MONEY RESULTS…

BIG MONEY RESULTS are what you get with the cumulative effect of exercise. Just like compound interest in investing, these results come after a significant duration of consistency.

If something is fun, safe, and goal-producing, it’s VERY EASY to stick with it.

Fitness success is about long term consistency. Long term consistency is best achieved by adhering to the following: Don’t get injured and don’t get bored.

This should be simple enough, but a lot of people get stuck here due to a lack of physical ability. They just don’t have enough options available.

This is why I am so damn passionate about what I call physical freedom.

Just the same way that a free society gives you the power to choose your own fate–physical freedom gives you choices with how you move through the world…

If you are truly physically free you can learn any sport or physical activity without fear of injury, but instead with a renewed vigor for life. The world is an incredible place FULL of a wide variety of wonderful options for physical activity.

Lass dein Ego an der Schwelle deiner Haustüre, des Studios, der Box oder jeder weiteren Trainingseinrichtung, und fühle in deinen Körper hinein. Vergesse nicht warum du trainierst und was die Konsequenzen draus sind.

Bis bald beim Training 🙂
