SynopsisMany people place value on fitness but either don't do it or give up too quick. The reason is that they have unrealistic expectations and do not know their body type to match their training plan to reach a goal and the know-how to do it. The Fitness Mindset speaks of the what and the why and shows you the how. Apply each habit in each chapter of this book, focus on the "process" (rather than the goal itself), and reap the results! Review "A comprehensible and motivating self-help book to get into shape with some excellent information about macronutrient ratios, injuries, and biomechanics of safe and effective lifting. Knowledge to get the beginner started and a lot to offer to the experienced lifter who needs to grow and add diversity to his or her workout routine." - Llewellyn Williams, MD "An easy to follow and insightful read. Getting your head into the game of physical fitness is often times the hardest part. A lot of great ways to get motivated and stay motivated." - Matt Atwood, Competitive Bodybuilder "The Fitness Mindset is like having Randy as your personal fitness coach with the practical wisdom he shares." - Ira Byock, MD "Read this book and learn how seven habits can help you train at a peak level and become unstoppable." - Jacques Pitcher, 3x North American Masters Champion and NPC Judge Overview If you want to build muscle and lose fat, then the objective is to train for muscular endurance 60 minutes every day, and rest days become optional. The Fitness Mindset shows you how to apply this to a domestic 9-5 lifestyle: work, train, home, sleep, repeat. Many people do not get results as quick as they want because they are not focused on "exercising" to perform at an optimal level, but are rather distracted by things going around them. Either exercise intensity decreases or exercising becomes harder to complete. A 60-minute weight training and 60-minute cardio session each can incinerate up to 1,000 calories an hour when performed at a steady-state of 80% HIT! Building muscle and losing fat simultaneously in the quickest amount of time is what "exercising" is all about. This is the core of The Fitness Mindset: 7 Habits For Peak Performance. Feel and look better within days and increase your physical fitness four-fold in 12 to 16 weeks! Intensity is measured by how much muscle tension you can create in the shortest amount of time to fatigue the muscles so that they can adapt and get stronger and bigger! Getting results by altering physical appearance and improving functional ability is not 80% nutrition and 20% exercise, but quite the opposite: 80% exercise and 20% nutrition. We spend less time meal prepping during the week than exercising. "Exercising" takes more time (and effort), even in preparation. Recent studies show that exercising influences healthier eating...for increasing performance and getting better results! General training variables (sets, reps, rest days) and training systems (high-volume vs high-intensity) set forth in The Fitness Mindset can help you determine what type of training routine (full-body vs split), method of training (ascending pyramid, 5x5, reverse pyramid), and training techniques (supersets, burnsets, dropsets, rest/pause, etc.) is best for your body and goal to get the results you want! Over 50 images, charts, and diagrams with over 100 endnotes for further reference!, Discover How 7 Fitness Mindset Habits Can Transform Your Body & Mind by Helping You Train with Purpose, Overcome Mental Barriers, and Achieve Faster Results! Do you struggle to stick with a routine because it's not working - or is the real problem why you're exercising? The Fitness Mindset reveals why most people fall short of their goals and shows how to build lasting habits, embrace core fitness values, and optimize training for peak performance. HOW WOULD IT FEEL TO HAVE THE MINDSET TO SUSTAIN MOTIVATION? The Fitness Mindset is a self-help guide that offers substantial informational support. It covers exercise modalities and biomechanics; training methods, systems, routines, and variables; exercise motivation and goal setting; strategies to enhance focus; nutrition and post-exercise nutrition; recuperation and adaptation; injury prevention; and the benefits of exercise that extend beyond physical transformation. Includes over 50 images, charts, and diagrams, as well as more than 150 endnotes for additional reference and support. Written during the COVID-19 pandemic (2020-2021), The Fitness Mindset represents the culmination of 45 years of training knowledge and experience by a natural fitness veteran who combines a science-based perspective with a practical, common-sense approach. Chapter 1 emphasizes the importance of combining exercise, diet, and recovery for long-term health. It challenges the 80/20 rule by highlighting exercise's key role in maintaining metabolism and promoting fat loss. Also covers hydration, the effects of caffeine and alcohol, and how to balance macronutrients for optimal performance. Chapter 2 explores effective goal-setting through a hierarchy of long-term and short-term goals. It prioritizes process goals over outcome goals. Concepts like flow, mental imagery, and habit-building are introduced to support lasting success. Chapter 3 breaks recovery into three phases: rest intervals, post-exercise nutrition, and supercompensation. Each phase is essential for muscle repair, growth, and improved performance. Proper recovery planning helps maximize results and prevent burnout. Chapter 4 introduces the "fitness mindset" - a resilient, adaptable commitment to fitness that drives consistency and optimal performance. Through real-life examples, it shows how to adapt, exercise, and train effectively in any environment to create lasting change. Chapter 5 compares resistance training with high-impact exercise modalities, such as high-intensity interval training (HIIT) vs. high-intensity steady-state (HISS) and full-body vs. split routines. Discusses muscle tension, injury prevention, and how to tailor workouts to individual body types and goals for more effective training. Chapter 6 contrasts three resistance training methods, identifying the most time and energy efficient option. It also covers overtraining risks, the balance between volume and intensity, measuring effort, and the importance of proper warm-ups. Chapter 7 focuses on adaptation - the body's response to training stress that leads to strength and growth. Encourages sticking with programs long enough for results, gradually increasing intensity, and refining technique to avoid stagnation. Chapter 8 covers the biomechanics of safe and effective lifting. Emphasizes joint alignment, muscle engagement, and proper form through 20+ foundational exercises. Smart technique leads to better results, reduced injury risk, and long-term physical health.
