[Quote No.32455] Need Area: Body > Exercise
"[When training with weights] The last three or four reps is what makes the muscle grow. This area of pain [namely completing the last few steps and then doing a little extra] divides the champion from someone else who is not a champion. That's what most people lack, having the guts to go on and just say they'll go through the pain no matter what happens." - Arnold Schwarzenegger
Body building champion, film star, successful businessman and later Governor of California.

[Quote No.32722] Need Area: Body > Exercise
"[Self-Defence and Martial Arts:] The most important element of a free society, where individual rights are held in the highest esteem, is the rejection of the initiation of violence. All initiation of force is a violation of someone else’s rights, whether initiated by an individual or the state, for the benefit of an individual or group of individuals, even if it’s supposed to be for the benefit of another individual or group of individuals. Legitimate use of violence can only be that which is required in self-defense." - Ron Paul

[Quote No.32743] Need Area: Body > Exercise
"[Self-defence and martial arts:] Martial arts provide a model of life. They teach us to be positive and resolved in the face of adversity. They teach us to seek truth (albeit at first through technique), they teach us to seek harmony rather than accord, they teach us cooperation (which is necessary during practice) and they teach us the humility to know that we must act as part of nature not contrary to it. If we must fight, then we should do so with a pure heart. To harm an opponent more than is necessary is savagery and is unbecoming of an artist. It is better that we are judged on our dignity and humanity, rather than by how fearsome we are." - Peter King

[A civilised person, like a country, solves problems with words and the law, rather than stooping to sort out problems using primitive, physical force, unless there is no other choice as is the case in self-defence. After all, right is might, not might is right!]" - Woodrow T. Wilson

[Quote No.36348] Need Area: Body > Exercise
"Serious sport has nothing to do with fair play [although it should. The inspiring, humanistic aspirations embodied in the philosophy of the modern Olympics should be our underpinning values. However ‘serious sport’ unfortunately often seems to have succumbed to our baser instincts]. It is bound up with hatred, jealousy, boastfulness, disregard of all rules and sadistic pleasure in witnessing violence. In other words, it is war minus the shooting. [It should be our challenge in sport, as in all life, to do our best while holding ourselves to the highest standards of moral and ethical behaviour. To do less is to not live up to our best potential, set a bad example for others and besmirch our own, our team's, our country's, and even humanity's honour.]" - George Orwell
[1903 – 1950], George Orwell was the pen name of Eric Arthur Blair, who was an English author and journalist. His work is known for its keen intelligence and wit, profound awareness of social injustice, and an intense opposition to totalitarianism. He is best known for the satirical novella ‘Animal Farm’ (1945) and the dystopian novel ‘Nineteen Eighty-Four’ (published in 1949) — they have together sold more copies than any two books by any other twentieth-century author.

[Quote No.38322] Need Area: Body > Exercise
"All individuals in today's society with so many food choices, especially fast food, need to consider their dietary and exercise regimes in creating a healthy, happy lifestyle. While many foods taste great, not all of the options are healthy in the long run. From personal experience and research I have found that the best result for myself is a diet high in vegetables - raw and cooked, medium in protein - fish, meat and eggs, low in carbohydrates, sugar, and fruit, and nearly no dairy or processed food, combined with daily exercise. For those interested in learning more, an internet search for more information about these key elements will provide many reports from nutritionists that can help them make up their minds and implement these dietary and exercise regimes. I particularly recommend researching the Volumetrics and the Nutritarian diets!" - Seymour@imagi-natives.com

[Quote No.39726] Need Area: Body > Exercise
"[The human brain is truly remarkable, in particular our imagination. Here is information that suggests that merely imagining something can help the brain rewire its neurons to learn and improve not only mental performance but, in these reports of two experiments, physical performance as well!]
Pascual-Leone taught two groups of people, who had never studied piano, a sequence of notes, showing them which fingers to move and letting them hear the notes as they were played. Then members of one group, the 'mental practice' group, sat in front of an electric piano keyboard, two hours a day, for five days, and imagined both playing the sequence and hearing it played. A second 'physical practice' group actually played the music two hours a day for five days. Both groups had their brains mapped before the experiment, each day during it, and afterward. Then both groups were asked to play the sequence, and a computer measured the accuracy of their performance.
Pascual-Leone found that both groups learned to play the sequence, and both showed similar brain map changes. Remarkably, mental practice alone produced the same physical changes in the motor system as actually playing the piece. By the end of the fifth day, the changes in motor signals to the muscles were the same in both groups, and the imagining players were as accurate as the actual players were on their third day.
The level of improvement at five days in the mental practice group, however substantial, was not as great as in those who did physical practice. But when the mental practice group finished its mental training and was given a single two-hour physical practice session, its overall performance improved to the level of the physcial practice group’s performance at five days. Clearly mental practice is an effective way to prepare for learning a physical skill with minimal physical practice...
In an[other] experiment that is as hard to believe as it is simple, Drs. Guang Yue and Kelly Cole showed that imagining one is using one’s muscles actually strengthens them. The study looked at two groups, one that did physical exercise and one that imagined doing exercise. Both groups exercised a finger muscle, Monday through Friday, for four weeks. The physical group did trials of fifteen maximal contractions, with a twenty-second rest between each. The mental group merely imagined doing fifteen maximal contractions, with a twenty-second rest between each, while also imagining a voice shouting at them, 'Harder! Harder! Harder!'
[The results? The subjects who actually did the physical exercise got 30 percent stronger at the end of the training period. The subjects who only did the imaginary exercise got 22 percent stronger.
So over training periods of several weeks, purely imaginary practice can lead to changes in the brain and increases in physical performance that nearly match the effect of actually, physically practicing.
The mechanism behind this is as simple as it is fascinating: as far as your brain is concerned, merely imagining doing something is very nearly the same as actually doing it. Experiments have confirmed that imagining an image causes your brain to go through the same pattern of firing and activation that it does when you actually see the same image. Watching a person shoot a basketball causes the same brain areas to light up that are involved in shooting a basketball.
The implications behind what we are learning from research into this power of our imaginations are potentially huge for learning and improving all sorts of physical skills, in particular for athletes and even for workers.]" - Dr. Norman Doidge
