Thx guys.. for ruining it for me!! Now next workout I'm gonna KNOW its not real. Lol j/k.
Intresting concept though... if a person doesn't know they are experiancing placebo effect do they continue to develope faster then when they are told its merly a placebo? Wonder if not knowing or if we told all first time users that gains would be noticed the first week if they would actually develope faster and show true gains??? Hmmm just how powerful is the mind?
I hope this doesn't come out wrong .
You ever heard of retard strength ?
A person that doesn't know there limits because of mental stability can have a tremendous amount of strength at times .
Your mind has a operating system allowing it to learn and act in a survivable mode .
If you knew that pan on the stove was hot , you would not grab it , correct ? hence your brain is telling you the feeling of searing pain .
Now if you had no sensation of pain or burning . You would grab it causing damage to flesh without feeling pain .
I know people have heard of feats of strength in a crisis situation . I'm sure adrenaline was a big part of it .
Therefore . Thinking you are strong can have a positive effect on your intensity in the gym .
I know all this is far reaching and entertaining at best . I hope I didn't offend anyone by saying retard .
