Today I'm just going to ramble about the topic of time until I feel satisfied that I've utilized mine wisely. Actually its just two or five points. First off, It waits for no one, not even me. I remember a couple months ago when it was winter and we had just started the new year. Why it seemed like just yesterday the Pittsburgh Steelers became the world champs for a record setting sixth time. Ha!!! That's the cool part, there's also remember back in 89 when I was the captain of Polk High's State Champion Water Polo team. All the girls would come to the pool just for a glimpse of me in my speedo. Now that glimpse would give the girls nightmares. That type of stuff is hard to unsee! The good news is you still have time... at least most of you do. You have the rest of your life to get your robot running smoothly, and looking groovy. You don't have to be all Austin about it, but why seriously, why not put together a plan where you set aside a hour four or five days a week to ensure that you look the best you possibly can and I heard it might even be good for you, You know what some dude once said, it could help you live longer. I don't know though, dude was pulling bugs out his hair and eating them. He coulda been crazy is what I'm saying. Then again he coulda been on to something. Sorry, rambling again.
Next point, is every now and then work against the clock. I have an iphone, one of the great miracles of modern technology, one feature I like to use when I work out is the alarm clock. I used it the other day. I was pressed for time all day, and I still hadn't worked out after my last client. So I set my alarm for thirty minutes. Thirty minutes is not very long in the real world, or in the workout world, but just like the real world if your are deliberate and efficient you can get an impressive amount of work done in that time frame. The trick is to not stop moving. I ended up doing biceps, triceps's, a little bit of shoulders and I've been trying to get a little bit of calves in everyday, and I guess that counted. Also I got my cardio. If you don't think your heart is thumping from lifting weights, do twenty crunches, twenty push ups, twenty body weight squats, and twenty chair dips, non stop.
Just like the real world, you wont let your loser friends drag you down, don't do it in the room. They may not even be losers. They just might not have the same ideals and goals that you've set for yourself and for your time in the weight room. They might just consider making the trip to the gym enough to satisfy there, thirst for exercise. They try to workout by osmosis or by association. Don't get sucked into the conversation about UFC hundred plus, or by this weeks game of the century, both things you have a strong opinion about, and would love to blast about for twenty minutes, two minutes is too long. Get back to work and catch um on the flip side.
