Why consistency is the only surefire way to build muscle

Why consistency is the only surefire way to build muscle
If you've been struggling to build muscle, this could be
one of the most important articles you read this year. As
I write this, the year 2007 is drawing to a close.
However, it doesn't matter when exactly you read this, for
the message will be relevant for the rest of your life. I
wish to speak to you briefly about the most important
component in muscle building (and throughout other areas of
your life, for that matter). What is this crucial
component of any strength training or mass building
program? It's Consistency.

You may have heard this at various times in your life.
You've heard it stated in different adages like "inch by
inch it's a cinch" and "try, try again" along with a dozen
other clichés. You probably brushed it aside at the
time, since our tendency is to search for the magic bullet
- the one key that will unlock all of our desires with the
least amount of effort. Unfortunately, we inevitably learn
that there is no magic bean that can replace due diligence,
determination, and, most of all, consistency. No
supplement, regardless of the marketing hype, can provide
you with the same results as a solid exercise and diet
program followed carefully over many weeks and months.
Always remember that our greatest successes in life almost
always come from many small individual choices over time.
The small actions on a consistent daily basis will
accumulate and have a massive effect in the future.

You do need the right knowledge, of course, but understand
that any muscle building course will require significant
effort over a sustained period of time. These courses give
you the knowledge to succeed, but you must apply them
consistently to achieve any real long-term results. Trust
me, I have long had a tendency to look for the latest
thing, whether it was in the field of fitness or something
else. Jumping from program to program will give you
nothing. Reading the first few pages of a muscle course
will do nothing by itself to build muscle, nor will
stopping your program after a week or two of strength
training. If you make a decision that you're in this for
the long haul, you have essentially guaranteed your success
from the very beginning. Any flaws can be corrected, and
any obstacles can be overcome as long as you're committed
to achieving your goals.
