“The Little Things”

January 19th, 2010 · No Comments

We’ve all heard it so many times in our life, but it truly bears repeating and remembering especially when it comes to spending time in the gym.

“You Learn Something New Everyday”

Gabi "learned" about taking a bath for the very first time in this snap!

While training with Greg the last 5 weeks, I have learned much from him.   Hand spacing, better technique, holding muscles in contracted position longer, new exercises etc.

He has also learned much from me as indicated by the pictures in the previous blog.   Collectively our knowledge pool grows greater each and every training session.   We both try and take mental notes while watching the other perform the lift/movement and then point out flaws or areas where improvement can occur.  We have also decided that we’d make every effort between us to come up with a Blog Idea at every single training session.  Even if it’s just a basic paragraph, content is king and the goal of the TMC site is to offer valuable content as often as possible.

The moral of this story is that you should look to improve in much the same way.  If you train with a partner, watch and study their technique.  Be your partner’s constructive critic.  If you train by yourself, take notice of the people with the physiques you most aspire to.  Go up to them and ask them for pointers or advice.

You’d be surprised at how often advanced lifters are willing to help people learn and grow.  Do it with tact and professionalism.  Don’t be the guy or gal who stares glossy eyed at a physique you admire giving them a sense you are a weirdo or stalker.

The sooner you observe what’s going on around you and make a conscience effort to incorporate the “new view/observation” into improving your training, the faster results will occur and continue.

As you can see, content is now coming again.

Anhski has only one more week before she can begin low intensity cardio.  And she will be back on the road to “Fitness Model Momski”.   You can be sure we’ll be documenting this for all the Mommies to see.

Stay tuned!
