When it comes to getting results in fitness we should be doing all of the basics like eating right, tracking our food, doing cardio, lifting weights ect. But sometimes you think that you are doing everything right and for some reason are still struggling to get what you want.
Here is one quick trick that there is no excuse not to do, but I catch clients skipping all of the time. USE THE MIRROR.
Have you ever noticed how gyms are filled with mirrors? There is more to all that reflection then just vanity. For some people they have trained themselves not to look in the mirror. To each their own when they are away from the gym. But if you want results then you need to use the mirrors.
The obvious reasons are the reality. If you are using a mirror you will find yourself cheating ALL of the time. It is very difficult for an expert exerciser to 'feel' a cheat, and for a beginner... forget about it. Use the mirror to make sure that you are getting the most out of each set.
Also, if you aren't happy with the way that you look, use the mirror to inspire you. Be strong enough to look in that mirror and get a little bit pissed off, then use that anger to push yourself more and more.
So don't let self loathing sabotage your results. That mirror will really help you get what you need from your gym experience. I promise that if you stick to it, and do all of the tricks that you have read about in this blog, that someday you will look into that mirror and smile because the new you is fantastic!
