My mind is always in touch with my body when I workout in the gym. I feel my muscles continuously, I always take an inventory before working out. That not only help me train, it's almost like meditating. I lock my mind into my muscle during training, as if I'd transplanted my mind into the tissue itself. By just thinking about it, I can actually send blood into a muscle. If there's any secret to successful gym training it's this: concentrate while you're training. Do not allow other thoughts to enter your mind…
Full mind-muscle connection is the key…

Prepping my gym bag with everything I'll need later on. Always carry in my bb gymbag: my Pro Star Whey protein shake, Ultimate Nutrition BCAA's (THE BEST FLAVORED BCAA's), gloves, wrist straps and my bb hoodie… Today's shoulders and triceps. Happy days!
Without a doubt, the back is one of the most difficult and complex muscle groups to train. It simply sets higher demands to train a muscle that you can not see in the mirror. But it's so worth it. A well-developed back provides not only a powerful look, it also gives the illusion of having a slimmer waist. Moreover, there's not much that compares to get an awesome pump in the back muscles.
So today I was told that the Swedish people eat 17 kilo of candy per person and year. More than anyone in the whole world!!! I guess that's what you call comfort eating. Makes me wonder: do we live for eating or are we eating to live…?

What do you take before you go to the gym? I always take my Ultimate Nutrition Whey protein shake and a fruit! Gives me a nice adequate full belly!
At this time of the year it's extra important to spend time outdoors every day to get some light and fresh air…
Some people get surprised when they hear how often I train and they wonder if I don't become overtrained of so much training …? Overtraining is when you break down the body's muscles instead of building them up, when the nervous system is at chronically high speed and send out catabolic stress signals to the body. Obviously you don't want to be in that state.
But I think overtraining is rarely what you do in the gym, but more on what you do outside the gym. Because if you train smart and varied, and give your body the rest, recovery and nutrition it needs, you can actually do some kind of workout every day.
Time to hit the road! And I love traveling with my PINK gym bag/travel bag/everything bag! It fits everything! Love it!!! See you my loves!!!!
