This is Part 2 of a video series where I give you 13 awesome neuroscience-based tips and strategies that will allow you to hack into your own brain, and re-program it so that it has no choice but to lead you to achieving your goals. And while I’m going to tell you specifically how to leverage these brain hacks for your fitness goals, the principles apply for any goal or behavior change that you want to achieve in your life.
In Part 1 we discussed how to subliminally influence your behaviors and motivations, the strategy of simultaneous goal coactivation, the did a deep dive into 5 different meditation strategies to achieve neuroplasticity or re-wire your brain. If you haven’t seen that I’ll put a link here and in the video description below. Now, in Part 2, we’ll start off with
-a hack based on something called Contingency Management, which is similar to operant conditioning, and tell how you to leverage the fact that we as human beings will work harder to avoid losing something we have than to gain something we do not. This principle will not only help you to form new habits, but also how to stop previous, bad habits or even overcome addictions.
-Then I’ll give you hacks that will make your goal-oriented behaviors completely automatic, so that you don’t even have to think about doing them.
-Next we’ll touch on a really cool brain hack called Delay Discounting which will enhance your ability to persevere instead of getting discouraged about the amount of time it takes to achieve fitness goals.
-After that we’ll learn how a deeper knowledge and understanding of exercise science will drastically increase intrinsic motivation to work out.
And finally we’ll cap it off with what I believe to be the most important strategy to use when setting your goals.
