If you did not achieve the bodybuilding goals that you wanted to achieve for your spring break, there is no need to despair.  Instead, use this spring break to get started on the bodybuilding program that will get you ready for summer.  By starting now, you will be in top shape by the time summer comes around.

Remember to use all of the tracking methods available to you and make sure that you are not losing more than 2-lbs of body fat per week.  In this manner, you can preserve and even grow muscle as you lose the fat.

Here is a full program that you can start using now in order to get that lean body that you want for the summer:

One of the reasons that people get discouraged with their bodybuilding program is lack of realistic goals.  I always say, aim high but you need to be realistic. For instance, if on the next 12 weeks you plan on losing 50 lbs of fat and replacing them with 50 lbs of muscle, then that is unrealistic.

Instead, settle for a loss of 1.5 to 2 lbs on the average per week and that will equate to 18-24 lbs in 12 weeks! After that, with twelve more weeks of dieting you will accomplish your long-term 50-lb fat loss.

When it comes to muscle gain however you really need to be patient. If you have 14-inch arms, do not expect them to be 18 by the end of 12 weeks. Instead settle for ¼ - ½ of an inch. If however, you are an advanced stage, like myself for instance, it took me a year and a half to get my arms from 18 inches to 18.5 inches. Therefore, the more advanced you are, the more patient you need to be.

In bodybuilding, patience and perseverance will be your best allies. For more information on goal setting and having the right bodybuilding mindset, please take a look at my articles below:
