VRT - The Importance of Focus

The element of focus has come up again and again in obtaining the most out of Visualized Resistance Training.

The idea of focusing on a specific immovable object or objects seems to magnify the effect of visualization. As with all goals, if for instance one has a specific desire to be a doctor, while in undergraduate pre-med training one must focus fully and completely on the idea of being a physician, and picture practicing medicine in a hospital or doctor's office. With that specific focus in mind, day in and day out, imagining it with full sensory acuity, the subconscious will take that person to that position which he or she has so desired. Focus will bring it about.

Likewise, the amount of focus one puts into the visualization of lifting heavy weights, lifting a car or an elephant, pushing a semi into the air, etc., will neuroligically push the muscle to its greatest flexion, and its most massive vasocongestion (pump), which forces the muscles to grow.

It is said that "we become what we think about", or "we attract what we think about." With practice on the increase of mental focus, visualized resistance can only become better for the individual.
