Wishful Thinking...

We all do it. We wake up with plans, goals, and ideas of what we are going to accomplish everyday. Unfortunately, we only complete a small percentage of them. I read somewhere that the average person who works 8 hrs a day, only gets about 3 hours of real work done. That same principle can be used in the gym. Basically, the average person might spend about an hour in the gym and spend barely 20 mins actually exercising. The rest is spent watching TV, listening to music, "resting", checking out members of the opposite sex, writing in the workout journal, and etc.....but not on exercise. Maximize the limited amount of time you have to exercise by making sure you have planned out the workout before you even walk in the door; STOP RESTING...you came to workout so why are you sitting there counting to 30; and save the ogling for the club/bar; perform supersets, dropsets, circuit training, and etc which are all ways to have a more effective workout in a fraction of the time.
