What are your tips for having a good workout?
I want everyone to chip in on what it takes for me to have the best workout possible. Here are some of the things I've learned that if I do I will have a good workout every single time...
1. Eat your meals on time! When I don't eat every couple hours my blood sugar level starts to dip up and down like a roller coaster and I'm guarenteed not to have a good workout. Eating accordingly is the single biggest thing for me.
2. Become anti-social. Bring your own music. I seriously become autistic when I'm working out. Every single set is a challenge of how hard I can push myself. I like to DJ my music to keep my mood going and not get distracted. I also never make eye contact with anyone. Also, a technique I've picked up to push myself hardest during a set is to sort of cross my eyes and blur out my vision and then just imagine my muscles. It's a night and day difference.
3. Get your workouts done early. Just get it done. No excuses. Morning you are guarenteed to have the most energy and during the day you can pick up distractions and other things that can throw you off. Also, a shot of espresso before a workout never hurts, either.
Ok...Well, I've shared what has worked for me. I want to hear what you guys are doing!
