I read an article about self development and it mentioned that people should listen to self development material while they’re running or working out in order to maximize our time.
I’m not sure if I fully agree with this idea. When I’m working out I want to focus on what I’m doing and not be distracted, I also don’t want to spend 4 hours in a gym I want to go go go and then head out, that’s what works for me.
This also got me to thinking about what is the best thing to listen to when working out?

I read recently that stress is the #1 reason why people don’t get to achieve their physical objectives.

Friends that have known me for a long time were really surprised to see me cut as much fat as I did and lose weight. They asked me if I became bulimic or some other nonsense.
The reality is that all I did was make a long term commitment to cutting out things that did now allow me to lose weight. I honestly just didn’t cheat and I created a reward system for long term success. I’m not better than anyone, I just made sure to create a plan with clear end result goals, thats the key.
My focus aside from counting calories was to cut out the following four.

I have been away on holidays for the past 2 weeks and this last week I took a break from working out before jumping on the last stage of the Visual Impact Workout. The last stage is called the “Abs Shrink Wrap Effect”

These pics are from the end of November 2009, about 3 months before starting the program.
