Make it count, train like there's no tomorrow

I'm about to head off to the gym for my big workout of the week, and I am ready!

As a former football player I use the same mentality of game preparation as I did for football. I don't just show up at the gym and say "oh that looks like fun" "Let's try that" No, when I wake up on Sunday morning it's Game-day for me.

My workouts are planned out before I get there. Not only does this make it more time effective it also makes the workout more effective.

Energy wise Sunday's are always the best because I have a calorie-filled Spike Day on Saturday so my muscles are primed and my glycogen is loaded.

I have a 20 gram pure protein drink when I get up mixed with 5grams of creatine.
Then I head to the gym.
On the car ride I start to visualize my workout (another bonus of having a predetermined workout plan) I listen to the music that pumps me up too, very loud!

At the club I am all intensity, it's a ready set go mentality.
I train to failure and put everything into my moves.
I make every set count, and every rep has a purpose.

I'm done in about 30 minutes, and I have my post-workout whey and go on with my day. With the endorphin's running high.
