Consistency Is Evil … Sometimes

Ralph Waldo Emerson once said that, “Consistency is the Hobgoblin of little minds.”

Was he talking about Spiderman’s arch enemy?

Probably … but he was also likely talking about the tendency of humans to stick to shit they should NOT stick too … simply because they always have.

In this video I discuss such esoteric awesomeness, and how it all relates to your strength training:

No Dying! Why Being Lazy Can Save Your Life … In Weightlifting

The biggest mistake that beginners make (as I told you last week) is that they don’t stick to a plan.

Intermediates are really just those few people who went through their beginner training RIGHT and DID stick to the plan. So … congrats if that’s you!!

You stuck to the plan and got some solid results. Sweet!

You need a bit of Ebb and Flow … and just a touch of laziness thrown in for good measure :-)

I mean … you are both really similar, same age, the weights you lift are similar, and even your lifestyles are pretty similar … so you SHOULD be able to both make progress at the SAME rate on the same routine … right?

Wrong.
