Many athletes use a form of mental focus training to help them achieve extreme strength. This training allows for them to make their workout routines both creative and effective in the long run. It also allows them to exhibit extreme strength by having maximum mental focus.
Did you know that the combination of extreme strength and focus training can be helpful beyond the gym and training areas? It can also be helpful in every day situations and events that you might encounter.
Here’s 3 every day activities that mental focus training helps focus athletes and even non-athletes.
Mental focus training helps with conversation following. Ever notice that in conversations your attention may wander? Mental focus training can help people focus upon a certain conversation and keep the mind from wandering. This will allow for more effective communication between people. Effective communication will lead to a more productive work and social life. To help stay in the moment, really listen and concentrate on what the other person is saying and try to come up with two questions while they’re talking that would lead the conversation in different directions. This helps you really understand what they’re saying and stay in moment. This also makes you more interesting because everyone loves someone who’s interested in them.
A busy day will be less hectic and run smoother. The ability to use mental focus to work out a daily routine will allow for ones personal life to go smoother. The training that is used will carry over into figuring out a schedule that works for each individual person. By focusing on a specific task at one time it will allow for a day that might appear chaotic to run smoothly. Getting rid of the clutter around your desk also help rid the clutter in your mind and keep you focused on one task at a time.
The ability to learn and adapt new tasks. People have to adapt to all types of new and different situations throughout the day. Mental focus can help in focusing upon that specific task and allow the brain to process the information that is needed to learn such a task or skill. I’ve been able to learn many skills in many disciplines because they focus short bursts of time on only one thing at a time. The short bursts with breaks in between help encourage enthusiasm as well as rapid learning skills.
Setting the countdown timer is extremely helpful to not help keep your commitment to keep the brakes short and regular, but they also help encourage energy rejuvenation which is vital to keep maximum enthusiasm and optimal peak performance output.
Mental focusing can come in handy in many other daily situations. Training the mind to be prepared to deal with such situations will allow for a better response when one is faced with a possibility that requires concentration or the ability to focus. It’ll be surprising how many situations mental focus helps in once you’ve learned the ability to apply it to daily life situations.
I’d love to hear your mental focus training techniques that you use during your day and hear comments from you because I personally respond to every comment. So, go ahead and comment and ask…

There are tremendous pull-up workout strength training benefits. Pull-up workout exercises are among the most neglected workouts in the gym and there is certainly valid reason – they are very difficult to perform for most people. Almost all people consider the fact that a wide muscular back will definitely to produce the kind of physique that will turn heads quickly.
In spite of this, fitness buffs ignore doing pull-up workout strength training regularly in their strength training programs. Why? Basically, because many people cannot do a lot more than 3 – 5 pull-ups and it is downright embarrassing to merely be up on a pull-up bar for just a couple seconds whilst imagining that everybody in the gym cane easily see exactly how few pull ups you are able to really do.
Not having the ability to perform many or any pull-ups whatsoever can not only stop you from having that eye-catching v-shaped back, but will continue to keep you from actually building full functional super strength.
Doing Pull-Up Will Thicken Your Back
In One Of The Fastest Ways
Truth be told, other than workout outs with dead lifts with heavy weight, doing strength building pull-up workouts will certainly thicken your back in one of the quickest ways once you include them in your current fitness workouts. This bodyweight exercise is amongst the best all round strength training exercises there is.
It’s interesting how you’ll see massive behemoths in the health clubs doing countless sets of lat pull downs for strength training but with weight that isn’t even equal to their own bodyweight. At the outset though, you’d think they’d be lifting more than their body weight and that is the reason why they’re not performing pull ups because they can lift more weight easily. In reality, get those same blokes on the pull up bar, they usually quite often fail to obtain in excess of 10 pull ups lifting their own bodyweight. On top of that, they usually can’t do much more than one set.
Build Up Super Strength Fast That’s Functional
Have a look at the pull up bar or assisted pull up machine in the health club the next time you go. What you will definitely observe immediately is that those machines are almost always empty. They’re the loneliest fitness equipment in the gym and yet they are actually one of your best friends in aiding you to gain super strength that’s functional fast as well as that sexy v-shape back that looks good and is immediately noticeable no matter what you’re wearing.
If you want a powerful back quickly, you may want to swallow your pride and bounce up on that lonely pull up bar and begin performing the very pull ups that most people are ignoring because they’re simply frightened of showing how few they can really do. Most peoples’ egos are what hold them back and keep them from challenging themselves.
“Accept the challenges so that you can feel the exhilaration of victory.”
~ General George S. Patton
If you basically cannot execute a single pull-up, then you might want to try getting started with doing chin-ups (palms facing you). Doing them this way engages the more powerful parts of the bigger biceps muscles rather than unduly stressing the topmost part of the forearms as when performing the over-hand pull ups (palms facing away).
Doing chin-ups essentially will stimulate incredible bicep strength as well as develop your back muscles and this is an added bonus to doing them this way.
I recommend for you to get started with pull up workout strength training today. If you would like to quickly start showing off that much-coveted “v” tapered upper body physique that will assist in making your shoulders seem wider and your waist smaller – add pull up strength training immediately to your fitness workout.The

Talking about Hulk strength, here’s a photo of Lou Ferrigno and myself at the LA Fit Expo that took place this past weekend.
It not only was a great photo op, but I had a few moments to talk and share some stories about strength training and even about how Beethoven created some of his greatest masterpieces in music when he was completely stone deaf.
I told him the story about having played the then popular Incredible Hulk theme music as the encore in my senior recital at the San Francisco Conservatory of Music as a piano major. It’s a pretty funny story actually…
Playing that popular TV series theme music might not seem too strange to some of you. But, while I was studying to be a serious classical pianist, I was also training as a power lifter, bodybuilder, and martial artist. I had gotten pretty big and it was hard to tell a piano and myself apart sometimes. 
After transferring from another famous music conservatory, I’d often hear my colleagues making fun of me behind my back saying I was too “musclebound” to play the piano well.
So, even though I had my revenge by going on to win some of the biggest competitions which they also competed in – including the award to play with the San Francisco Pops Orchestra, I still had fun rubbing it in my senior recital by ending my recital with an encore that was the actual theme song to the TV series The Incredible Hulk – total sacrilege to say the least. I still remember the gasps when I announced it. haha
Just last week, I actually even spoke about how to apply Hulk strength in my new pull up strength training DVD course that’ll be released very soon. It’s a really cool concept for sure and think you’ll really appreciate it when you see it.
Lou’s fingers are about 2 inches longer than mine. He has a giant paw for sure. I had great pleasure in showing him an important super strength concept in CoreForce Energy that demonstrates the vast differences of power vs. force. When I grasped his hand tightly and tried to push him backwards with brute force, I couldn’t budge his Hulkness.
But, when I used the unique CoreForce Energy super strength principles of flowing energy correctly, I effortlessly pushed him back without any effort or tension whatsoever with one hand in my pocket. Someone watching it on TV would say he was being paid to “act along”. It put a surprised look on his face for sure. He’s an awesomely inspiring man and gracious to everyone he comes in contact with. Truly inspiring.
Anyway, I’ll tell you more about the cool The Fit Expo in the next blog post including picts from the awesome strong man competition.

Physiology reveals that the basics of strength and power development in the muscles are the adaptations of the nervous system and the hypertrophy of muscle. Hypertrophy simply means the growth of muscles. These two factors lead to the production of increased amounts of myosin and actin which function by increasing the tension of the muscles. Increased amounts of these tow substances leads to the development of individual strength.
The only way in which actin and myosin can be properly produced on grand scale is through the carrying out of effectual strength training techniques. In so doing the strengths of the tendons and ligaments are also increased. The role of the nervous system is quite complex but the explanation can be simplified if we can understand that the brain sends messages to the muscles. These messages are either excitatory or inhibitory. Excitatory messages allow the muscles to be readied for use while the inhibitory messages serve as warnings when the brain realizes that certain tasks are impossible. The muscles relax and in so doing one is able to avoid injury.
As one makes progress in weightlifting the brain reduces the number of inhibitory messages sent to the muscles. This is due to the fact that the muscles are adequately prepared to meet the expected requirements and that it is possible to lift a specified weight. (more…)
