Weight Lifting Programs- The Gene Wars


One excuse many people make to avoid weight lifting programs is that they don’t have the genetics to get big, or thin, or ripped etc.… take your pick.

Did you know that the quantity of muscle fibers that you have was set at birth? Does this mean that all those excuses are valid?

NO!!!

Of course you can’t increase the quantity of muscle fibers BUT you can improve there quality.

Those guys or girls you see out or at the gym who are fit, didn’t just get that way from genetics. They put in the work. They too hit plateaus and had to be persistent and work through them.

The shape of your muscles when fully developed is also determined at birth. Do you know how many muscle fibers you have? I don’t know how many I have and don’t really care. Do you know what shape they’ll ultimately take if you develop them to there fullest? I don’t know, not yet, but I’m going to find out.

Unless you try to reach your potential you’ll never know the answers to these questions. You’ll just keep making assumptions and excuses. Who knows maybe you do have the genetics to look even better than you’ve dreamed.

The point is, don’t worry about things like genetics because it’s not in your control. What is in your control is whether or not you try to reach your potential.

Choose a good weight lifting program, push yourself, be persistent and always imagine the possibilities.
