How to Get Stronger

If you want to be perceived as stupid, lift weights. If you’d like to be a nerd, read books.

Done.

It’s really such a warped conventional wisdom.

Actually, if you want to change the world, you’ll need to increase your energy capacity. That helps you do things much faster, more efficiently, and more passionately.

Then to boost that energy capacity, you’ll need strength training (a.k.a. lifting weights).

According to energy guru Jim Loehr:

Physical energy is fundamental to every aspect of our lives. Anything that you can do to build and sustain physical energy increases the chance that you will perform at your best.

Increased physical capacity influences the ability to control emotions, to focus attention and even to persevere on a mission.

Remember: Dramatic changes don’t happen overnight!

It’s such a common scenario:

  1. Skinny Carmine wants to be buff.
  2. He tries to lift a million pounds during his first day of his workout.
  3. He sees no changes.
  4. Disheartened, he quits.

Forget the overnight thing.

Use what really works:

Habitually improve how much you lift.

According to the Harvard Medical School:

If you wish to significantly increase a muscle’s strength and size, you’ll need to do resistance exercises with that muscle on a regular basis (that means more than once every two weeks).

The moral:

If you want to be the nerdiest of nerds, habitually lift more weights.

"I will pump you up!"
