I Can’t Do Visualization For You…But I Can Do It With You

Visualizing is like catching a fish from a stream with your bare hands.

People just aren’t good at stepping back into the observer mode in their head and directing the action. 

Even if they try, they’re flip-flopping between the coach and coachee. (This is one of the primary things that makes mental training so tough to do successfully.)

Everyone knows they should do mental training, but few people follow through mostly because they just don’t know how. 

My guided Fitness Maximizer Hypnotic Tracks are an example of this in action.

There’s a reason that page has more positive reviews than any other course or product I’ve put together! Mental training done-with-you makes it easier.

So that day, it clicked for me.

Why don’t I guide people in short 30-second to 1-minute visualizations in much the same way?

It’s Basically Lazy Fitness Magic

The Scientific Proof Is In…

Most of the research regarding visualizations physical effects is on sports performance. And fitness is just the same. 

• A study on judo players found that mental visualization training led to a 21% increase in performance effectiveness, along with 28% better focus, compared to a control group.[1] 
• A study that trained football players in mental visualization over six weeks found a massive improvement in visualization skills, which in turn was linked to better performance on the field. [2]
• Basketball players visualizing shooting free throws performed significantly better. [3] 
• Visualization led to improvements in cycling, as seen in the graph below, as well as improvements in self-confidence [4] 

That’s just a sampling of the research out there. But truth be told, research has hardly scratched the surface of the possibilities.

Almost no one is seriously applying it to fitness and strength training. And therefore, so many people are leaving gains on the table.

More Visualization is Better...

There is what for some may be a surprising study found in the book Peak Performance by Charles Garfield. The study shows just how powerful mental training can be for athletes:

“In my meetings with the Soviet researchers in Milan, they discussed government funded athletic programs that integrate sophisticated mental training and rigorous physical training. One study evaluating these intensive programs suggests their potential. Four matched groups of world-class Soviet athletes diligently trained for many hours each week. The training regimens were as follows:

Group I – 100% physical training

Group II – 75% physical training, 25% mental training

Group III – 50% physical training, 50% mental training

Group IV – 25% physical training, 75% mental training

When the four groups were compared shortly before the 1980 Winter Games in Lake Placid, Group IV had shown significantly greater improvement than Group III, with Groups II and I following, in that order.”

Olympic athletes swear by visualization. Are you putting it to use?

High Imagers Got Better Results than Low Imagers...But Both Improved

In 1992, Anne Isaac led an experiment with 78 subjects of trampolinists, some of whom were experts and others novices.[5]

They were divided into experimental and control groups, and this was a blind study, so the experimenter was unaware of who was in which group. Isaac had the participants tested on visualization skills through assessment and classed them as high or low imagers. Both groups were trained in three skills over a six-week period.

The practice was laid out as follows:

• 2.5 minutes of physical practice on the skills
• 5 minutes of mental imagery for the experimental group OR 5 minutes of abstract mental problems like math or puzzles for the control group
• 2.5 minutes of physical practice once again

In the end, there was a significant difference in performance between both the high imager and low imager groups, with the high imagers getting superior results.

There was also a significant difference between the mental imagery group and the control group, again the former group leading. Both the novice and expert groups saw improvement, which showed that visualization works in beginners and advanced people.

This was one of few studies showing that not only was visualization successful, but better visualization was more successful.

HOW You Visualize is Often More Important than WHAT You Visualize

What is missing in most of the research is specifics on how to visualize. Just a few studies look at that. For example…

“It was concluded that visual and kinesthetic imagery share similar neural networks which suggests that combined interventions are beneficial to athletes whereas separate use of those two modalities of imagery may seem less efficient from a neuropsychological approach.” [6] 

While that is good, and visual and kinesthetic are typically most important to sport and fitness, it is missing the auditory channel as well.

Because it is so seldom used in training, it can actually be super powerful and potent.

Visualizations Made Easy will guide you to using each of the senses. You’ll find which one, or which combos are best for you.

Even If You Currently Use Visualization, You’re Likely Leaving Results on the Table…

Just how well you visualize matters for your results too. 

Not just me saying that. A meta-analysis of visualization in sports stated:

“The effectiveness of imagery was positively associated with the intensity of the imagery training.” [7]

• Do you know how to make your visualizations more intense?
• Do you know how to utilize all five senses, amping up the intensity in each? 
• Do you know which sense is most powerful for you?
• Do you know how to use your imagination to go beyond reality?
• Do you know how to mentally time travel to unlock future gains right now?
• Do you know how to unlock that feeling of achievement right now to set you up for success before you’ve done anything?
• Do you know how your mind programs “hard” and “easy” and how your visualization can swap these?

This program will walk you through in doing all that and more. 

This is Also Visualization Training Wheels

Not only will this lead to greater results in the moment, but after using this program, even just for a little bit of time, you’ll discover you can do these visualizations on your own.

Essentially, this program acts as "Training Wheels" to get you up and successfully visualizing on your own.

You’ll gain access to new visualizations skills that few know are possible because not just the basics but advanced methods are used.

Them those training wheels will serve you in the many years to come.

Bonus #1 - Visualization 101

For those that think they can’t visualize, let me ask you a question. What does your mother look like? If you can answer this question, you can visualize!

That being said, many people do need practice with the basics. This bonus will take you through the foundational steps you need to amp up your visualization skills.

From “I can’t visualize” to visualizing better than most.

Bonus #2 - Body Composition Visualizations

I love fitness visualizations because you can see results right away with more reps, more weight, or sinking deeper into a stretch.

While you won’t see results as fast, these handful of body composition visualizations will help you get the body of your dreams.

Whether you’re looking to lose fat, gain muscle, or both, using your mind will help your body to go where you want to go.

Use these visualizations before, during, or after your workouts to “aim” your body, mind, and emotions toward your desired aim.

Bonus #3 - Post-Workout Recovery Visualizations

The legendary wrestler and coach Dan Gable said, “You have to work as hard at recovery as you do at training.”

That means, if we're using visualizations in the workouts, shouldn't we also be using them after the workout.

My experience shows that using mental training for recovery can be every bit as helpful as doing so for training itself.

There are two visualization audios here. My favorite one invokes the healing powers of Wolverine...

FAST ACTION BONUS #4 - REBATE OFFER

This is only available to the first ten people to claim it. I know visualization works and can speak all day about it. But as this is a new program it is missing testimonials and reviews from other people.

So, for the first ten people to send in usable reviews of how Visualizations Made Easy has impacted their lifts, their workouts in tangible form, I'm giving the full price in credit of what you paid for any Legendary Strength or Lost Empire Herbs product.
