The Mental Side Of Losing Arm Flab

By Katherine Crawford M.S.

For the most part, diet and exercise are not what holds women back from reaching their "lose arm flab" goal. The truth is that diet and exercise are actually the least important aspects of reaching sexy arm stardom!

In reality, there is so much information on diet and exercise floating around, that any woman could gain an insane amount of knowledge on the topics.

But most women do NOT know how to stick to said programs for the long haul. Why? Because their thought processes haven't been optimized.

You see, a poor mental strategy will lead to massive undulations in motivation. And keeping a high level of motivation all the time is the key to sexy arm stardom. I grappled with this issue for a very long time. But I found a cure.

What was my saving grace? The one and only David Burns M.D. He wrote an excellent book which provided easy to use methods for optimizing thought processes. Central to his method, was the identification of major thought distortions.

So without further delay, here are some major things you need to look out for if you want lasting motivation when learning how to lose arm flab:

1. Pressurizing statements. These types of statements are like using a whip to motivate yourself. They may work initially, but over time they will become too painful and your motivation will fade. How do you avoid them? Avoid telling yourself that you "should" exercise or diet. Instead, tell yourself that you WANT to exercise or diet. The slight shift in wording will have a tremendous impact on you.

2. Labeling phrases. Never give yourself a label when messing up. Labels indicate that there is something internally wrong with you which is NOT the case. So don't call yourself a "loser" or a "slob." Instead, describe the situational circumstances that led to the hiccup so that you can prevent it from happening again.

3. Minimization phrases. These types of phrases can turn men into mice. Why? Because when you minimize you view yourself as being much less capable than you actually are. Never doubt your ability to reach a goal until you have actually tried.

Learning how to lose arm flab isn't just about finding the right diet or exercise program. It's also about finding the right mental program. And with the above thought distortions in mind, your mental game will be as solid as a rock. Good luck! - 17268
