What is it that seperates each of us? Some might view certain things in life as more important so they make it their priority.  It might be their jobs, hobbies, or school.  Then there are some that view it as when these priorities or mixed with a training regiment they become distractions.  This is a lifestyle my friends, this isn’t something that you can become the best in when it is given 2nd, or 3rd priority.  When someone puts their training behind something else they seem to make excuses like: I’m to busy, I don’t have the genetics, or I don’t like the crowd at my gym during a certain time frame.  Bottom line is, it’s not their lifestyle or maybe they are just not dedicated to it.  If this is what you truly want you have to be willing to give things up to make it happen.  This is a lifestyle not a hobby.  If you live your life like the average man you are going to have the physique of an average man.  I’ve watched so many people come into my gym and loss their motivation, I think a gym membership is a small price to pay for the first step of this lifestyle.  This is why so many gyms make you sign a contract before even starting your regiment.  Most people just starting out will give up after the first couple of months.  Gyms have contracts to save their own ass when this type of person losses motivation.  The advice I leave you with is this.  Stick with it, dedication is what sets us apart, it’s not genetics (even though they help).  There are no shortcuts to this.  If this is what you want make it your lifestyle.  You got to plan ahead, know your workout before you even step into the gym.  Don’t plan the workout around your day, plan the day around your workout.  Make it a priority, this is what sets us apart. 

There’s no one workout that I could give you that would get you where you want to be.  I’ll tell you what will do it and if you don’t slack even one time it will happen.  Dedication is the key to it, stay dedicated and don’t slack for any workout, any diet, week in and week out, year in and year out.  If your serious about this you got to do what no one else does.  This takes years of dedication, it might mean you don’t go out and drink or party with friends, drive past a fast food restaurant, even though it’s convenient, to go home and grill chicken, or stay at home one night and get to bed early because you have an early training session that can’t be wasted.  This can not be looked at as a waste of time, it becomes a lifestyle.  Every session, every set and every rep has to be taken with the utmost sincerity.  You got to learn how to deal with the pain of your muscles burning and learn how to push through it.  Bottom line is if this were easy there would be a lot of jacked dudes walking around. You stay dedicated to a workout, then change it up and stay dedicated to that one and you’ll get the results you want.  The results may not come quick, in fact the may take months or years, at this point you have to dig deep and see what kind of man you are.  This is what sets us apart, and that is how you build it.  It’s something that you have to build and no one else can do it for you.  You got to always remember that.
