Empower Your Training…”Push Through”

Your muscles should be sore on some days after you train. If not, then you need to train harder…you need to “push through”. You can use principles taught by Tony Robbins when he talks about “pushing through”.

These principles are very powerful for all facets of life. Each of us has potential. When you exercise this potential you have action. Action always yields results. These results will further support your belief. Your belief will cause you to tap into more of your potential. This becomes a self-perpetuating cycle that allows you to “push through”.

While you train, put theses principles into practice. Focus on them…let them drive you to new levels. When this happens you should experience DOMS, AKA delayed onset muscle soreness. This is caused by “pushing through” to a new level. You have gone outside the box and pushed your muscles to the edge. You have broken down your muscles. They are damaged and sore. Muscle biopsies taken on the day after hard training shows that there is disruption of the z-band filaments that hold muscle fibers together as they slide over each other during a contraction, as well as evidence of microscopic bleeding. CPK levels will also be elevated as this is further evidence of muscle damage.

I am a big advocate of pushing each and every set to exhaustion. This promotes maximum fitness and growth. As we explore muscle fatigue and other related topics like lactic acidosis, I will relate these topics to proper training technique and how you can “push through” each set without pushing over the edge. Empower your training…”push through”.

About Martin Casper

Being an entrepreneur has given me a deep appreciation for individuals who are success oriented and never give up. The drive to always “push through” is a trait of successful people. I have been fortunate to associate myself with many successful individuals over my life. It began with my father who instilled in me the ability to step outside of the box…to create something out of nothing. He taught me the importance of integrity in business...traits that I have incorporated into the various business models I employ. I spent the first ten years of my career in the medical field. I worked side by side with amazing individuals who put their own self-interests aside in order to nurture others back to good health. Many times I witnessed life and death situations. It was always humbling to experience the team-work that evolved around trying to save a lives. As my career path evolved into the business world, not only could I bring those experiences into my persona, I saw a need to spread information…real information for real situations. A close friend of mine began to mentor me in aspects of blogging. He has given me incredible insight into how a blog should be developed…how to focus my passion for helping mentor people to becoming successful entrepreneurs. This passion for mentoring others began when I was a young child and continues today. It is not about me, but rather those who have influenced my life. I am a work-out addict and a real “ski dog”. Sorry guys and gals…I do not “ride”. I live for deep powder and steep chutes. I love the feeling of looking over the edge of a steep run…feel my heart beat faster with that adrenaline rush and then “jump in”. I love golf…but I always wonder if I will ever break 100…lol! Most of all, I love my wonderful family…they are the best! Thanks for stopping by and I hope you feel empowered today.
