Hey guys
First off i want to talk about one of my least favourite exercises… RUNNING. So the music for my running exercises are one the most important aspects in my workout. It is totally different from being at the gym or in the center and having alot of people around you that keeps you motivated. Even if you are on treadmill, you are still in “your own world”. So i want to keep my focus in my running music, and feel that meditative state that you can get into when you are listening to music, we have all been there and i know you can feel that. The music i use in my training MUST be i n sync with my body, i need to sense every part of my body to feel that tingling spark. I want to try out something with you, just take this moment and listen to a song that you love. Just close your eyes and totally feel the music. When you have finished listening to that song take a minute and answer these questions.
- What did you feel, how did that song affect you emotions?
- What did see? Were you doing anything special?
- Did you feel a taste, or for example a smell?
Why am i asking you this? Well everything we do mentally affects us physically to. Training and music goes hand in hand. Instead of having the music just affecting your emotions why not let your mind control it instead with the help of the music? What i mean is next time you want to associate a song or track with your training MAKE your mind think of the outcome, see that you are lifting weights to the max, see yourself running miles and miles, and over exaggerate. Sooner or later your mind and body will work at max just my listening to that song, because you have programmed it into your mind.
Stay tuned guys i’ll post later on which method that changed a big part of my life. Also i will share my one of my exercise playlist. I hope you guys have Spotify
