You Will Never Realize Your Beginners Yoga Orange County CA Training Goals Without Visualizing Them First

By Carol Rogers


Whether joining the local gym, or pumping iron from the comfort of their homes, all experienced fitness enthusiasts know that gym training need not be physically draining. Endorphin high, anyone? No, really. With the right attitude, a well rounded diet, and realistic expectations, within a few months even the laziest couch potato would think twice before missing a beginners yoga Orange County CA session not when their newly-visible abs are at stake.

Without rapidly made improvements to their physiques, most people are quick to throw in the towel and call it a day. Yet, the opposite also stands true: should they manage to achieve the body of their dreams, and in record time too, they're just as likely to quit at that point as the person in the first example who had not managed to make any real progress.

Then it is off to McDonald's for two celebratory Big Macs, washed down by a large Diet Coke, which they hope is big enough to cut a few calories off the burgers before they're digested. One can not really blame them. After all, they have a lifetime of bad habits compelling them toward the burgers. But with only a week invested into getting into shape, the new activity had not had the opportunity to take root within their subconscious minds. The minimum of fourteen days required to form a new habit had not been reached yet, so working out regularly still felt like a foreign concept to them.

Most people's motivations are like the wind: it merely comes and goes, blowing to and fro. And being more captivated by outside appearances than their inner-drives, gladiators-in-training are prone to dropping the gauntlet at the first sign of opposition. They had not endured their trial by fire yet, reflexively pulling back from the flame before they even had the chance to touch it.

A split second decision later, and just like the Berlin Wall all banged up and out of shape the vision of their dream physique comes shattering to the ground. But it's of little consequence to them since their old habits, and big-boned donkey ways, are simply too habitually ingrained already.

For a person to start enjoying an activity that they'd otherwise dread, the first step is to rewire their brains. Simple. The process involves establishing new dopamine pathways, allowing for new and unique clusters of synapsis and neural connections to be formed but, in the absence of any neurosurgeons, perhaps a more down-to-earth approach would be more appropriate?

Simply visualizing the intended outcome would have inspired enough motivation to overcome, and endure, any temporary discomfort encountered. Keeping one's eye on the prize is simply a means to an end. Professional athletes do it. Navy Seals do it. Successful businessman, do it. Even goddesses of victory like Nike and just do it. So why does not the average person simply do it? The short answer, it requires some discipline. And perhaps only a couple weeks of it before it becomes habit. Easy enough for the superior man, but for the average person, it can be a bit of a chore.

So, the next time that person hits the gym, they get rewarded with a small burst of dopamine one of the brain's feel good neurotransmitters. Eventually, usually after several repetitions, this behavioural pattern becomes etched into the brain's neural pathways forming a new habit. Addictions are formed the same way. And considering how research done at Duke University found that 45 percent of people's day to day actions are the product of habit, as opposed to conscious decision making, pushing through that second week of a workout regimen could mean the difference between still boasting a chiselled 6-pack at sixty, to succumbing to a fatal cardiac arrest at forty. A person only ever reaps what they've sown.
