5 Motivation-Boosting Nootropics That Will Keep You On The Arm Toning Bandwagon

By Katherine Crawford M.S.

Unfortunately, most women fail at arm toning not because they aren’t exercising or eating right, but because they can’t sustain a high level of motivation for prolonged periods of time. Many start the race, but few finish it.

And our society aggravates this problem because it focuses so much on supplements and one-trick wonders. We are obsessed with synthetic foods that are going to alleviate all our problems. We should be obsessed, however, with ways to increase our mental stamina.

Figuring out how to optimize the mind with standard psychology can be tough. And let’s face it, life will throw curve balls at us that are simply unpredictable. As a result, I am going to reveal 5 motivation-boosting nootropics (nootropic means mind enhancing) that will provide an instant increase in motivation:

1. Lung ching green tea. Also known as dragon well green tea, this stuff is amazing. And it’s far superior to bagged green tea. You will get an immediate and strong surge in mental focus after having a hefty portion of loose leaf.

2. Organic cocoa. If you like chocolate, you will love cocoa powder. You see, cocoa powder is chocolate on steroids but without the added sugars or fats. You can expect an immediate flood of feel good feelings and an increase in circulation (as demonstrated by Harvard researchers) when taking cocoa.

3. Ceylon cinnamon. Also known as true cinnamon, it’s far superior to the cinnamon you are used to consuming. Ceylon can be identified by its cigar look since its rolls are not hollow. Combining a stick of Ceylon with loose leaf green tea will pack a powerful punch. It will also increase insulin sensitivity which translates into more energy going to your brain.

4. Organic yerba mate. You have to be careful with this one because it’s very potent. But safe nonetheless. Another loose leaf tea, yerba mate has the potential to keep you alert and happy for up to 8 hours. Let me repeat that, yerba mate can give you a mental boost for up to 8 hours. But you have to start with low doses and asses tolerance.

5. H20. Don’t roll your eyes just yet. I believe dehydration is a prime suspect for decreases in mood. Why? Because of caffeine. We are a culture that is addicted to caffeine, seriously. And our bodies don’t build up a tolerance to caffeine’s diuretic effect. Thus, many women are unknowingly suffering from low grade dehydration throughout the day. Lower dehydration equals mental sluggishness.

If more women starting focusing on their minds instead of the next wonder pill, more women would achieve successful arm toning. So make sure you take the above nootropics any time you feel the motivation beginning to flag. Stick with it, and you will get sexy arms. I promise.
