Spheres And You
In the CoreForce Energy Course, there is a section as you follow forward with the course that talks about Sphere Training. This section to me is worth the entire course in itself because it teaches you where to put these powerful magnetic and electrically strong spheres around your body to enhance your movement and gain strength/speed. What can you visualize to make yourself stronger and more fluid? When you think of something, a result comes into play. Our thoughts are more than we perceive to be. As you come to understand in how to create the sounds and where you put the spheres, you'll see how you move with such power and using the muscles in precise moments. Think what it would be like to move with great strength in your sport, walk and talk with a great energetic presence.
As you learn the spheres and bringing emotional content with full power and belief, you'll start to notice you're not fighting to be fluid and strong, you'll be feeding it. It doesn't matter where you put them and where you want them to go, if you practice with great intention and utilizing your imagination you can create movements that can amp up your heart rate that can burn off fat, learn to move and hold in awkward positions and still be strong enough to throw a punch and/or kick. The true strength relies in our imagination, to be congruent with our muscles and spring into action just by using a thought and following that with movement. This isn't some mumbo-jumbo magic trick or the thought that you can't possibly be strong from different angles, I've used this method enough to know that when I turn it on and bring my imagination into play, I walk more fluidly, I feel stronger in my Yoga poses and move much quicker without the tension that would normally come around. It's still a practice to learn and not just creating sounds or trying to see where to put these spheres; it's adding emotion, raw power through your thought. If you just make the sounds, put the spheres somewhere and not put any emotion or thought into, you won't have that power and fluidity that comes up.
Just because something isn't physically there doesn't mean it's not real to you. I'm very visual person and have a vivid imagination so I can pick up rather quickly the images but some people aren't. For some they have to physically see something in order to understand it and it can be tough. So in order to look at this from a certain perspective, it takes practice but it doesn't need to be a drag. Make it fun and interesting for you, see what you want to see in order to feel and letting the strength come. You can't physically see the spheres but they're everywhere in your mind, it's just a matter of where you want to put them to get the biggest benefit of the movement(s) you want to accomplish.
To get the biggest benefit of this type of training is to not only see them in your mind but you have to believe they're there. When you believe and it becomes so powerful, the next step is taking action and you create what you want out of it. It doesn't come easy but it's worth learning. Imagine being able to carry heavy suitcases, fight without fatigue, run down the field and no one can catch up with you, hit the ball out of the park with intense but fluent strength and think what it would be like to walk up stairs without putting strain on your knees; be pretty awesome huh?
Happy Monday everyone and Be Awesome.

Absorbing Power To Increase Strength
We all have a power within us in some form or another that
can give us the strength we need for everyday life. To harness it takes
practice but eventually it becomes second nature and no matter what goes on in
your life, you can channel your energy to create the strength you want.
Scientists say we use no more than 5% of our strength capacity, what if we can upload that to even 1%, would you like to know how?
Everything
we do starts with a thought. We think about stuff all the time but what if we
took the time to use our thinking to increase our energy, to increase our
movement and to create super strength in the snap of your fingers. How we think
creates different actions, different energies and different processes. If you
have a thought of happiness, your body’s energy tends to have you move with
better breathing, you’re smiling, you’re focused and using less tension. Got a
thought about being stressed out and needing to do a bunch of things, your body
tenses up, you scrunch your shoulders, your focus is off balance. These are
examples of how we think and how our bodies react to that thought. A different
thought creates a different action. You can create strength and power just by
using your thought with focused intent and trajectory and having certain points
that will allow you to move any way you want.
Think of a
kid. As kids we had great imaginations, we made stuff up and created sounds for
them, seeing things that aren't there except in our minds. Our breathing was
congruent with the way we move and it was fluid and fun. We've lost the ability
to use our imaginations and become more analytical. We think too much and don’t
really just let things be. Be like a kid, picture what you want to happen, move
the way you want to, your breath will be congruent with the way you move.
Unleashing
our chi is simple but it works with our focus and intent with our breathing. It
doesn't matter if you’re a strength athlete, a business man/woman, trainer,
entertainer or whatever, you can increase your power no matter what you are. If
we can increase our power just by a small percentage and have it be consistent,
it would help your life in ways nothing else could. Take your strength into the
stratosphere and never look back. Take your imagination to places no one can
take and be fluid and cunning. Shoot for the stars and beyond the planets and
expand your universe.

Ultimate Kings & Queens Of Bodyweight Exercise
Usually most people look at bodyweight exercise as a waste
of time and don’t hold any real value for fitness. Even many trainers would say
that if you want to get strong you advance onto weights and machines. The
problem with this notion is that many people don’t know how to handle their own
bodyweight. When you learn the real styles of Bodyweight Exercise, you’re
learning how to use your body from multiple angles, work more muscles one
exercise at a time and you burn more fat. Those who tell you it doesn't do
anything either can’t do it themselves or they’re trying to make a buck and
don’t really give a damn who they hurt to get by.
To be a stronger person physically, you can and should learn
to build strength from multiple angles, the more muscles you work at one time
the better. In Gymnastics, strength is built all over the place from your neck
to your toes. Now I never said you needed to be like a gymnast to have that
kind of power but learning certain basics won’t hurt very much either. It does
take practice but with time, your strength can skyrocket to levels you never
imagined before. Think about it, what it would be like to hold a perfect handstand, be able to switch from exercise to exercise without pain or fatigue
or better yet, have the strength to hold even the most basic positions and
still look good doing it. It could happen if you just believe and take action.
Gymnasts and even Acrobats have the most fluid and graceful
movements that are strong and cunning. Even a ballet dancer is very strong once
you start paying attention. The power of a movement even in basic positions isn't how it looks; it’s how it’s presented, straight and tight. The best way
to describe those straight and tight movements is how you are flexed in that
position. In other words, you’re looking at Isometrics. Think of a guy on the
Rings in the Iron Cross or in a Handstand, that is a form of isometrics.
Isometrics is the form of strength training where you’re throwing all your strength
in a fixed position.
Have you noticed that one of the key components if not the
key component to a gymnast is their powerful abdominals? It has been said that
Gymnasts have the strongest abs in the world, why? Because without strong and
powerful abs, they can’t move or better yet hold the most powerful looking
positions. A lot of us look to having strong abs, but the majority just want
abs to look which is not a bad thing but I’ll say it won’t look good on your
resume if you’re trying to do certain things. Your Core is the center of your
whole body, the key that holds everything together, from the lower chest down
to near your pelvis, that’s the Core that holds it all. Building strong abs= A
strong body.
Every time you watch Gymnastics, Acrobatics, Ballet or
anything that has nothing but their own body moving through the air or holding
some pretty awesome positions, you’re in awe and think “how the hell do they
get like that?”, besides years of training, they all started somewhere, some of
them had natural ability, others were terrible but with practice got better and
better. We all start somewhere, I didn't get into Gymnastics till I was in my
20’s when that’s the retirement age for most gymnasts, a good friend of mine didn't start till he was in his mid 30’s when most would say he was too late
and won’t be able to withstand those exercises. No matter how old you are or
what your current fitness is, beginning an exercise program is a great way to
go up that latter, it’s like learning math, you start with arithmetic and work
your way up to calculus. Start with where you’re at and progress to the best of
your abilities.
One of the coolest ways to look at training with Bodyweight
Exercises is that it doesn't take up a lot of time, hell no more than 15-20
minutes a day is all you need and if you don’t have time, start just doing a
few seconds, work up to a minute. You can even do separate exercises throughout
the day. It’s all about making it work for you. Those who say you need 30
minutes of cardio and an hour of weights don’t know a damn thing about your
lifestyle, the majority don’t have that amount of time to do all that but its
not impossible to do something during your day. Doing a few minutes of training
is really all you need, you used many muscle groups, you don’t need to do more
than a few exercises and best of all, you can make them fun and exciting, not
dull and used as a punishment. Do what you can, your body will thank you for
it.
Getting stronger is not far out of reach but you got to want
it bad enough, not to the point where you’re taking short cuts that’s the
cheating way. The true value of being strong and healthy is practice, practice,
practice. Consistency is a key and whether you exercise for one minute or one
hour it still counts. Make it happen for you, you can think all you want and
nothing will come of it, it’s the action that gets the job done. Your body is
what you make of it, don’t let certain things or people get in the way of what
you want to do. You can have a beautiful, powerful and strong body if you
believe in yourself and find the right resources for you to develop what you
want to achieve. It’s not that far away but it’s up to you to reach out and
grab it by the horns and run with it.
