Lose Love Handles And The 4 Minute Mile.

Before 9th of May, 1954, it was widely assumed that an English Mile could not be run faster than 4 minutes

. On that day, in Oxford, Roger Bannister ran the mile in 3 minutes and 59,4 seconds.

In the years after several runners all went under 4 minutes, and today even some high school athletes will run at a time that once was considered magical.

So, what does that have to do with losing weight and lose love handles? The common thread is - its all in the mind! Before Roger Bannister ran his mile under 4 minutes it was a widely held assumption that it was impossible to do so.

Of course it wasnt, but the interesting thing is that once that magical record was broken other runners found it easier to do the same.

It is quite common to have deep seated, subconscious, assumptions that hold you back when you try to lose weight. Assumptions like :

I never manage to lose weight. I am a big boned person. I have a slow metabolism. Its natural to put on weight as you grow older.

If you have thoughts like these inside yourself, then you will not be able to lose weight or lose love handles.

Why?

Because your subconscious will sabotage your efforts, without you even realising it.

And the reason for this, in its turn, is that your body is actually ruled by your mind. Your mind, and your body, wants to keep itself - you - healthy and functioning, and if your mental attitude is that it is natural to put on weight as you grow older then your mind simply wont let you lose pounds. That would be "un-natural".

Now this might sound strange, even completely false, but it has been proven in countless situations. Let's make it clearer:

Imagine youre four years old. Someone close to you is slowly wasting away. She -or he - is not eating and looks badly malnourished. Your family all try to make your relative eat.

Of course, the passing away of a relative is not really something that a child understands - however, the emotions that are being felt are of course being felt also by the little child. Imagine how deep an impression all this would make on a four year old.

And then imagine what will be in your subconscious when you try to go on a diet as a grown-up ... its not hard to imagine that as you start to get slimmer your mind will remember those emotions.

The emotions tell you that it is dangerous and bad to be thin, it will make everyone sad. Getting thin calls up subconscious memories - emotions - of death and grief..

And, emotions are MUCH more powerful than logical reasoning! This is the reason why your emotions have to be looked at if you are to succeed in losing love handles or belly fat, and getting slimmer.

Your subconscious must be enlisted! That is crucial!
