How to Deal With Offseason as a Natural Bodybuilder
It is tough.
Your focus has been so streamlined for so many weeks and now you are left with this void.
When you first start bodybuilding as a natural bodybuilder, you notice a lot of changes and it will be really exciting. Because you are new to bodybuilding your muscle mass and strength gains will be wild.
But as you grow and as you continue bodybuilding what will happen over time is that these changes don’t become as noticeable. So what you need to do in this case is you need to have other hobbies interests and focusses of your life so that you can still have that excitement of continually growing, learning, and mastering your life in all areas. Because, remember, these qualities exemplify the whole reason you fell in love with bodybuilding.
When times are hard and we lose that connection to what we are doing and why, when we lose our motivation - we just need to re-evaluate our mindset and focus on what we love about our daily lives and why we do what we do every day. The deeper reasons. To re-evaluate what keeps us feeling excited and passionate are about our lives. What gives you that intense and beautiful drive to wake up each morning ready to jump out of bed and crush some goals?? Sit with that feeling. What do you imagine?
Spend more and more time focusing on the things that make you feel happy, excited, passionate to be alive. Fall in love with your life again and you won’t need anything or anyone else to feel good. You are beautiful in this moment. You are whole. You are worthy. You are complete. You are valuable and capable and loved. Always. It is always inside you if you take the chance to focus and to listen to your heart and to listen to what really matters to you.
Continually choose to grow and learn in all areas of your life. There are so many areas we can improve on, and continue to improve on. And that is the beauty of learning - there is always more information to learn and there are alwyas more people to learn from. There are always new perspectives for you to consider. Always new mindsets to adopt. Always new strategies to reflect on. Become not only a master of the gym, but a master of your craft. Whatever you choose your craft, your speciality, to be. And keep using your discoveries to expand and grow. Keep working on those things that fill your cup. Every day, every moment, is a new opportunity to become more and more than you were ever before.
Embrace this opportunity to focus on all the other amazing skills and qualities and knowledge and capabilities that you have, as an individual. Take the time to discover new goals new dreams new aspirations in all areas of your life.
One door is closed but another has been opened. And this door opens to a vast and expansive land of rolling green hills. A land of infinite possibility for your life.
It is a beautiful opportunity that has just been handed over to you by the universe. An opportunity to create a life that is more and more meaningful and exciting and passionate and full of love and adventure than you could have ever imagined. And now is your chance to manifest all you could have ever dreamed of.
We can’t be certain of much in this world, but we can always be certain that there will always be more for us to learn. And you can take solace in that. Comfort in that. Despite the uncertainties of your body or the progress you are making, knowing that you can continue to grow in other ways at the same time gives us a sense of peace. So that we don’t need to rely on changes to the scale or changes to our muscle mass to feel okay. Because there will be times when we do plateau. When we don’t see changes. When we don’t see growth. When we may even go backwards. But this is all part of the game of life. Like snakes and ladders. Maybe today’s a ladder. Maybe tomorrow’s a snake. But one day you will make it to the end. Accept that life’s a game and run with it. Accept the struggle. Accept the adventure. This is what makes life worth living. What makes the fruit of your efforts taste that much more sweet when you finally reach that peak.
