5 Reasons Why You Are Skinny And Not Muscular
I've been working out since I was 5 years old through martial arts. Plus I started doing hard-core strength and conditioning routines since I was 12. Thus, keeping in shape wasn't really a problem.
On the other hand, I come across individuals who don't look the way they want, and each time they speak their mind, it's like hearing stories that is the same as before. That's why I am writing this post, if you are:
* Scrawny and feel you can't transform your body into a strong, muscular, powerful specimen...
* Fat and think you can't lose the weight
* "skinny fat" where you have no beefiness, but you're just lean...
Then I can guarantee you are this way because of one of these 5 things:
Reason #1: You Don't Have Specialized Knowledge
* You have no idea how to boost strength.
* You have no idea how to watch your weight.
* You have no idea how to eat healthy
* You just eat take-out food and food out of a box since you don't know how to cook.
* You don't know which training program is best.
Knowledge is the primary step at all times. The first thing you need to understand is how your body works, how right nutrition and work out transforms the animal - then you learn how to make it do what you want it to do. In your case: change your physique for the better-build muscle and lose fat.
That's why you're here. I will give you the understanding you need. Yet it's up to you to utilize it. Knowledge is NOT power, only APPLIED knowledge is power.
Second Reason: You Are Lazy
* You know how to build muscle but you don't want to put in the work.
* You know how to build strength, but you think it's "too much work".
* You know how to burn fat, but you make excuses like "I don't have the time!"
* You know how to eat nutritious, but then it's easier to eat convenience food and food in a packaged form
I'm a big fan of being what I call unrealistically lazy. That is to say, I look for the very best ways (specialized knowledge) to achieve the extreme results in the minimum time. Thus, I get in, get it done, and stop. You should be WORTHY of the right to be lazy.
You can read every book on the planet about building muscle and losing weight, but if you never make a start on working out and eating healthy then you'll never achieve ANY results. You have to do something. Don't be afraid of failure, the most successful people realize that their whole life is one big mistake!
Third Reason: You Admit Yourself As "Skinny" or "Fat" or "Not Muscular"
* You think of yourself as "skinny, fat or not muscular" rather than as what you want to be
* It doesn't bother you a lot that you're this way at all
* if you actually cared enough, if it concerned you enough, you'd change
* You're COMFORTABLE with your appearance.
Nowadays being overweight and flabby is considered common. It wasn't always like this. We used to be hunters and if you weren't in shape-you were dead-end of story. During the industrial age everybody pulled through on hard physical labor, each person was in shape and buff.
You were considered "sickly" if you were lean and not brawny or teased for being overweight. You shouldn't feel bad about yourself but don't just say "this is just the way I am". You can turn into whatever you want to become and achieve things you never thought you could achieve if you're sick to death of your current situation and want to change bad enough.
Reason #4: You Think Gaining Muscle and Burning Fat is hard
* You accept terms like "hardgainer" and pertain them to you
* You don't get results in 2 weeks, hence you stop
* You leaf through books and magazines that point out "battling the bulge" like it's hard
Building muscle isn't all that hard. If you've always been skinny, try to get strong. Your body MUST adapt by building muscle to help you get stronger. It's the way your body works.
Losing fat isn't hard either. You eat clean and you stay active. Anyone who says they can't find 12 minutes a day 3x per week to lose fat is lying to themselves.
Reason No. 5: You Are Not Persistent Enough
* You haven't said "come rain or shine"
* You haven't said to yourself "failure is not an option"
* You haven't decided yet that "this is the year I get this sh*t handled!"
To tell the truth, you can build muscle, burn fat, and reshape your body using practically ANY training routine and dietary program. That's the reason why there's so many of them out there. The key to success (ANY success) amounts to 2 things:
1. Make up your mind you're going to do something and
1. Do it ANYWAY
I used to train with methods I wouldn't make use right away. They're not "proper" but it WORKED because I turned down in taking failure as an option. If you too develop the "do or die" attitude, you can attain whatever.
I will give you the know-how - or you can get the drift somewhere. I like to believe that I have the fastest, really intelligent, highly effective means to execute it - yet you can obtain the knowledge you need from any person. In addition, you don't need to be all that "positive" in your thinking. Simply make a decision and find a way to get it done. - 17273
