DO IT RIGHT

My name is Osa McDonald, and I have been weight lifting for 13 years now. I am all natural, and take only NO Explode and protein supplements. God has blessed me, and I would like to share what I have learned.



Exercise, or lack there of, is quickly becoming a real concern in many of our lives, and everyone and their chicken has something to say on the subject. The statistics are staggering, to say the least, and finally we are reaching a point where we are willing to do something about it. In the attached link from the American Heart Association, the concern is made real in black and white. http://www.heart.org/idc/groups/heart-public/@wcm/@sop/@smd/documents/downloadable/ucm_319588.pdf



Whether we have a desire to begin to exercise for our health, to look better for our spouse, to set a better example for our children, for our self-esteem, for aesthetics, or out of pride, many more people than ever before are being driven to get in a gym. There are far many who like to talk about the idea, with even fewer actually doing something about it, but gym memberships are rapidly increasing as people feel the need to get into better shape.



If you are simply considering the idea of working out, have already started, or have found that you are not obtaining the results you have been hoping for, I have valuable information to share with you. There are many different variables to individual results, but there is one underlying truth to them all. You have to want it bad enough.



Before you do anything else, you need to determine the reality of your determination and commitment. If you do not plan on applying yourself entirely, then you must be honest with yourself that you will only obtain the consequential results. You are going to get out what you put in. That, my friend, is all there is to it. If you are all in, and you want the results that require that kind of commitment, then there is nothing stopping you from realizing those goals.



I am not going to get into all the different diets and ideas on the subject. This is what I know. You need to consume 1 gram of protein, per day, for every pound of body weight. You should attempt to drink nearly 1 gallon of water per day. You should be consuming about 5 meals per day, which does include your protein shakes. Then, WORKOUT LIKE YOU MEAN IT. These are simple truths and facts. Do these things, get committed, and lets see what this body can do!!

It is so easy for us to talk the talk, but it is a whole other story when it comes to walking it out. Just like with anything in life, you are going to have to fight for anything worth having. You say you want to get it better shape... PROVE IT! You say you want to start working out and exercising... PROVE IT! We say we want things in our lives, or that we love people in our lives, but we don't have the commitment to make the sacrifices to PROVE IT. As I continue this blog, it will only impact your life if you put it into practice. WE MUST BE DOERS, NOT JUST HEARERS!

Are you committed? How bad do you want to start to change the way you feel, the way you think, and the way you look? I want to walk you through different things I have learned over the last 16 years so that you might be encouraged to push your self to your limits, and begin to change your life. There are three components to our person. Physical health, mental health, and spiritual health. When these three function in harmony together, we can operate as God intended. This blog will focus on the physical and mental components.

osamcdonald.blogspot.com is a blog of mine that addresses the spiritual component.
