Even I'm guilty of this from time to time. When I'm in competition mode my training intensity goes up. Not just because I am, as per a LOT of Elite and Evo members, on cycle (we see a LOT get more serious when on). But, simply put, because the clocks ticking and every missed opportunity is a chance missed.
Equally, in this day and age, we have the cellphone distraction. We've either seen it or been guilty of it - checking fkin social media. The worst examples are sitting on their workout bench between sets.
Recently I trained arms in under an hour (I've done it in 45 minutes with zero distractions). I trained chest and back (inc deadlifts) at 6.30am. So that alone was relatively quick as there was only one other member there (and one member of staff). Today, cos I slacked off a little, it was 2+ hours for legs.
All that said I'm not that bad. But a great many train, or so it seems, half heartedly. From the person plodding along on the running machine at a pace they do quicker when they shop to the fellas who only EVER lift the same weights. One example, in another thread, was the member who lost 50+ pounds on cycle. However, I'd bet he only trains and or diets hard on cycle. Are you guilty of this?
There is a great focus on forums such as ours on stims, fat burners, PED's, Sarms, Roids etc. Sometimes to the point where they seem like they do all the work. If, however, you trained like (or close to) your life depended on it. If, unlike some, you were consistent, and didn't miss any or hardly any sessions. If you got all the clean meals in and then and only then, along with ALL of the above, added in those oh so lovely additives and chemicals you KNOW that the results will be a LOT, LOT better right?
