Great article. Starting at 135lbs and 6'1, I of been working out for a complete year in April. I now weigh 175 and look, feel and perform better than ever.
I don't gain weight or muscle very easy due to my bodytype and that was discouraging at first and I sometimes wanted to use that as an excuse for skipping my routine.
Only in the past few months have I started to develop my mind and started not only ignoring (within reason) my body's desire to half ass my workout/training but to also to quit making excuses. Acknowleding but not giving in when I am tempted at times to not finish a set, or to not excert (?sp) that extra energy into a techique makes it easier each time.
My Guru has been preaching this train of though for quite sometime but only recently did I actually start to understand what he was trying to relay to me.
