On the Phone Working Out

Working out while on the phone won't build the best body you've ever had. Its hard to believe that people who say they are serious about working out are okay with being on the phone while doing a set. If you can be on your drone or Apple iPhone while working out, some thing is wrong! That means your intensity is way too low. How can you expect to build a body while you can carry on a conversation over the phone? You need pure focus and live like the gym is your top priority while you are working out. The phone is not working you out - the weights are! Its that simple. Get off the phone OR if it can't wait, postpone your working set until the conversation is over. My bugs me sometimes as it is the same people I see on the phone over and over again which not only will hold back your body's gains, but it usually adds excess time spent on equipment at the gym. Bodybuilding is bodybuilding - business or personal life needs to be separate. So, their bad habit meads you workout less or takes more time potentially to complete as you wait on them. Bluetooth technology and microphones have spoiled as well - it makes it too convenient to simply answer the phone. You need to dedicate working out TO working out - being on the phone or likewise, carrying out a conversation with someone else while you are doing your set is a total clue that you are not lifting heavy enough and or concentrating enough on the task at hand. Mobile phones are probably responsible for quite a bit of body gains being lost each year. It is that prevalent. Set aside phone and working out times as separate things. I know emergences occur. This is not a problem. However, the habitual phone use while trying (supposedly) to build a better muscle base doesn't really make sense does it? The body reacts to HARDER THAN LAST TIME effort. Can you accomplish that in your workout while using the phone? It is a no no to think a mobile conversation and so forth (like talking to others in the gym) is productive. It isn't! Like anything else, these bad habits should be obvious to most people. But I don't believe it is. They may think they are serious about lifting but they are not. Not if phone use is habitual. "On the phone and working out" - just think that through. Its almost as bad as saying you are sleeping while watching television. The phone is an asset in the gym when using headphones and listening to good workout music. But not when talking on it and lifting at the same time. Like it or not - there is a time to workout and a time to talk on the phone. But never at the same time. Tell anyone who might call, you won't be available when working out! you need to work on you just as much as you need to work on others. You deserve time to work on yourself. Don't forget this. Its your body - not theirs!
