I always talk about the gym... I never really talk about all my "prep" outside the gym. I never tell you all how many times I successfully squat 150kg in preparation for my goal of squatting 150kg at the meet. Or how many successful bench presses I have, no matter how light. And I have gone so far as to imagine what it's going to feel like to pull that last deadlift and know I reached my total goal. For the 90 min I spend in the gym every day, I spend at least another 90 in my head every day. Not all at once... but through the day... always running through the set up, the feelings, my brother's voice, the commands, the success. I imagine it both as if I complete it and sometimes as if I am watching myself.
Keep in mind, it doesn't always go as planned... I mean, when I invisioned getting pumped about my 400 Wilks, I did not imagine leaping and being so excited that I slipped and nearly ran into a pole... but, that's okay :) The feeling was exactly as I knew it would be.
