One thing that has come clear to me over many years of perfecting the VRT System in my own physical experience, is the use of self-hypnosis.
Before embarking on a maxed-out VRT workout, I purposefully relax and get into the sight, sound and touch of a grueling barbell session. Even to the point of "smelling" the sweat and cold iron smells of a real workout room. I take a few minutes to "get into state" as a psychologist would put it. This is totally immersing yourself into the visual, auditory, and kinesthetic modes of the experience---put your mind, with all senses available, and your "heart" totally into the mental experience.
The more I immerse myself into this vision, and it is more than just a vision, as it takes into account feelings, sounds, touch, even smell if possible, a "state of mind" is a better way to put it --- the better the experience will be.
Coupled with the idea that whatever the particular exercise will be, I go at it as though it is the heaviest weight imaginable. Try this. This is self-hypnosis at its highest level. But be careful. It will get you burned out all too soon. Take a break for a couple days after you go through a workout like this one.
