Pedro Bautista es el futbolista más admirado y seguido por ser uno de los mayores goleadores de la temporada 2017 en la segunda división peruana. Pero, ¿cómo lo hace? No se trata solo de tener buenos reflejos musculares en las piernas, además de tenerlas desarrolladas. Hay más factores en juego.
Por eso, buscamos a este delantero limeño del Club Defensor La Bocana de Parachique (Sechura, Piura), que acaba de cumplir 30 años de edad, que mide 177 cm de estatura y pesa 74 kg, y quien recientemente ha fichado por el equipo de primera división Unión Comercio de Nueva Cajamarca, San Martín, para que nos comparta sus secretos deportivos y nos aconseje al respecto. ¿Listo? Toma nota y aplícalo en tu vida.
1. Disfruta los entrenamientos:
Es cierto que cuando Pedro se está preparando para su próximo partido, hay una serie de progresos y metas que deben lograrse y tienen que lograrse; pero si crea un ambiente tenso, o agresivo, lo más probable es que sienta al entrenamiento como un deber incómodo, y no como un deber agradable.
"Es importante trabajar con alegría", afirma. "Así las cosas salen mejor".
en ese sentido, Pedro nunca olvida que la camaradería en un deporte colectivo, como el fútbol, es crucial si quiere conseguir los mejores resultados. "Me divierto con mis compañeros en el día-a-día, tratando de ser una familia", dice.
2. Cúidate en lo personal:
Lo que todo deportista demuestra en público tiene mucho que ver con las decisiones que toma en privado, y para Pedro Bautista parten de dos decisiones clave: "comer sano y dormir a mis horas".
Sobre lo primero, él siempre vigila que su dieta esté adecuadamente balanceada de acuerdo a la actividad deportiva que realiza, o a aquéllo que necesite corregir para alcanzar la excelencia.
Lo segundo es algo que la gente descuida a menudo. Dormir todas las horas que necesitas dormir repone energía y va activando mecanismos para que tu cuerpo asimile lo que comes y lo que entrenas. Si trasnochas, no esperes resultados óptimos. Recuerda que se recomiendan de ocho a diez horas de sueño profundo para restablecerte y alistarte para la próxima jornada.
3. Piensa en la persona que más amas:
Parece un vano consejo romántico, pero resulta que sí funciona, y funciona mejor que cualquier reconstituyente. Pensar e inspirarte en la persona que más quieres, o amas, activa un conjunto de hormonas en tu cuerpo, como las serotoninas, que siempre te mantendrán de buen humor y además altamente inspirado para dar lo mejor de ti cuando entrenas o cuando sales a jugar en la cancha, o concursar en el podio, o demostrar de qué estás hecho.
Es mejor concentrarse en los afectos que siempre serán permanentes, no pasajeros. En el caso de Pedro, ese cariño que lo inspira es el de su propio hijo: ""la motivación más grande es mi bebé y es lo que me lleva a ser cada día mejor profesional".
Y recuerda: siempre hay alguien que te quiere y te quiere bien. Date el tiempo para descubrir a esa persona, disfrutar, aprender a compartir la calidad de cada momento, y convertir esa energía en tu propia motivación.
4. No te creas perfecto:
Un pecado en el que solemos caer todos es la soberbia; más si eres deportista, y mucho más si eres un deportista exitoso.
Ojo que una cosa es tener autoestima y otra es vanagloriarse. La primera siempre se manifiesta en que tengo bien claro el concepto sobre mí al margen de lo que el resto cree sobre mí; lo segundo siempre consiste en exagerar mis cualidades positivas al punto que no tengo la humildad de reconocer que también tengo mi lado malo o pésimo (que de todos modos lo tengo).
"Uno nunca termina de aprender en la vida y siempre estoy presto a aprender en el día-a-día de mis compañeros y de los profes", repite Pedro.
Siempre recuerda que el equilibrio en la vida es importante, especialmente cuando se trata de autocalificarte y autoexigirte.
5. Hacer un gol es un pase a la net:
Este consejo es una creación 100% original de Pedro, y consiste en imaginar que la red del arco es otro de tus compañeros de equipo a quien tienes que darle un pase sí o sí.
Pedro dice que lo usa como una automotivación psicológica y siempre le funciona para marcar una anotación (¿mencionamos que es uno de los mejores goleadores de su liga?). "Pensando así me saco la presión cuando quedo de cara al arco", nos confía. "Es más fácil todo ".
Por supuesto, pobre del guardameta rival... pero, así es el fútbol, ¿no?
6. Quédate a definir tu cuerpo después de la sesión de entrenamiento:
Si eres un deportista de alto rendimiento y tu desarrollo físico parece estar en toda su capacidad, recuerda siempre que no todo es perfecto porque los seres humanos no somos totalmente perfectos. Pedro lo sabe muy bien: "Trato de fortalecer [mi cuerpo] dándole un 'plus', y reforzar lo que me falta".
Así que una vez que termine tu sesión de entrenamiento usual, no dejes de dedicarle unos minutos adicionales a verificar y corregir esas partes o ese rendimiento que esté por debajo de lo esperado.
Claro está, tampoco caigas en la vigorexia. Conversa con tu entrenador o instructor al respecto y definan qué hacer para corregir y mejorar allí donde realmente se necesita.
7. Vive feliz haciendo lo que te gusta:
Sí, parece un mantra, y de hecho lo es: nadie alcanza la excelencia en su campo... ¡si le disgusta hacer lo que hace! O sea, imagina hacer las cosas que no te gustan hacer. ¿No sería una especie de suicidio largo y lento?
"soy muy feliz porque trabajo en lo que me gusta, que es jugar fútbol", recuerda Pedro. "Todas las personas que hacen lo que les gusta tienen un buen rendimiento en lo que hacen", añade.
Recuerda que no es lo mismo cumplir con un deber que te incomoda que cumplir con un deber que te agrada y te satisface. Nadie te dirá cómo marcar la diferencia si es que tú mismo no te conoces, no te exiges, no te pruebas y no eres consciente del talento que tienes.
¿Y cuándo es el mejor momento para comenzar? Pues, ¡ahora mismo!

How to make the perfect goal
7 tips from the top scorer Pedro Bautista those never will fail to you.

pedro Bautista is the most admired and followed soccer player because he's one of the 2017 season's top goal scorers in the Peruvian Second Division. But, how does he do it? It's not only about having very good muscular reflexes in the legs, or having them well-developed too. There are more playing factors.
That's why we looked for this Lima-nativeParachique's Defensor La Bocana (Sechura, Peru)forward, who just turned 30 years old, who's 5 feet 9,7 inches, who's 163,1 pounds, and who's recently signed in Nueva Cajamarca, Peru's Unión Comercio first division soccer team, to share us his sport secrets and advising us about. Are you ready? Take note, apply it in your life.
1. enjoy the training:
It's true when Pedro is preparing for his next match, there are some achieves and tasks to be gotten, those got to be gotten. But if he creates a stressing, agressive environment, the most probable is he feels the training as un uncomfortable duty instead of a nice duty. "It's important working joyful," he affirms. "Things get better that way."
Pedro never forgets the camaraderie into a collective sport, like soccer, is crucial if he wants to get the best results. "I enhjoy with my team mates everyday, , trying to be a family," he says.
2 Care yourself:
what all sportman shows in public has to be muchly with decisions he takes privately, and for Pedro Bautista they start from two key decisions: "eating healthy, sleeping on time."
Regarding the first, he ever watches his diet to be correctly balanced according to the sport activity he does, or that he needs to correct for reaching the excellence.
The second is something that people uncare often: sleeping all the hours you need to sleep replaces energy and activates progressively the mechanisms for your body to assimilate what you eat, what you work out. If you keep awake overnight, don't wait for prime results. Remember it's suggested 8-10 hours of deep sleeping to reset you up and getting ready for the next day.
3. Think of the one you love much to:
It seems to be a vain romantic advice but it works actually, and it works better than any booster. Thinking and get inspired of the person you love much activates a set of hormones inside your body, like serotonines, those will keep you ever good-humored, and higly motivated to give your best when you work out, or when you start to play on the field, or when you compete on the stage, or show up what you are made of.
It's better to be focused on the everlasting affection, not short. In Pedro's case, that inspiring love is his son's: "The greatest motivation is my baby and it's who leads me to be a better pro everyday."
And remember - there's ever somebody loving you and loving you good. Give yourself the time to meet that person, to enjoy, to learn sharing the quality of every moment, and to turn that energy in your own motivation.
4. Don't believe you're perfect:
A sin we all use to commit is arrogance, more if you're a sportsman, much more if you're a successful sportsman.
Look! One thing is having self-steeme, another one is boasting. The first one ever means I have pretty clear the concept that I have about myself independently what the others think about me. The second one ever means overacting my possitive qualities as much as I'm not humble to recognize I also have a bad or awful side either (what I have anyway).
"Everyone never ends to learn in lifetime and I'm ever ready to learn everyday from my partners or coaches," Pedro repeats.
Ever remember that balance in your life is important, especially when it's about self-ranking and self-demanding.
5. Make a goal is passing straight to the net:
This tip is 100% created originally by Pedro and consists in figuring out that the net of the goalkeeping is another of your team mates who you have to pass the ball straight anyway.
Pedro says he uses it as a psychological self-motivation and it ever works him for scoring a goal (did we mention he's one of the best goal scorers of his league?). "Thinking that way I take out the stress when I stay facing the goalkeeping," he trusts us. "Everything's much easy."
Indeed, poor opposite goalkeeper... but, the soccer is so, isn't it?
6. Stay ripping your body after the workout session:
If you're a top-profile sportsman and your physical assets seem to be in full capability, ever remember not all is perfect because human beings are not totally perfect. Pedro knows it very well: "I try to strenghten [my body] giving it an extra, and beef up what I lack."
So, once your usual workout session ends, don't miss to give some additional minutes to verify and correct those parts or performance that is below the expected.
Of course, don't fall in vigorexia neither. Talk to your trainer or coach about and define what to do right there where it's really necessary.
7. Live happy doing what you love to do:
Yeah, it looks like a manthra, and actually it is. Nobody reaches the excellence on the field... if dislikes to do what does! In other words, imagine to do the things you don't like to do - would not be a long, slow suicide?
"I'm very happy because I work in that I love, what's playing soccer," Pedro remembers. "All the people doing the things they love to have a good performance in what they do," he adds.
Remember that it's not the same accomplishing a uncomforting duty for you than acomplishing a kindly, satisfaying duty for you. Nobody won't tell you how to make a difference if you don't know yourself, don't be exigent to yourself, don't test yourself, don't be conscius about the talent you've got.
And when is the best moment to start? Well, right now!

¿Hasta qué punto me influye la genética?
Por ChulucanasGym
Modelo: Henry Hernández*
Hablando en términos estrictamente clínicos, la genética sí influye en la construcción del cuerpo que deseas. Es decir, todas las características propias de tu ser y que te vienen heredadas por generaciones influyen en tu capacidad de incrementar masa muscular, o perder grasa corporal, o tener mayor resistencia, o tener mayor fuerza... o todas, o ninguna.
Sin embargo, la genética no determina por completo tu forma corporal final. Si bien no podrás cambiarla en su programación, sí podrás conocerla para irle sacando ventaja, o balanceándola al nivel que estás buscando a través de una dieta, un entrenamiento y un régimen de descanso debidamente diseñados y seguidos con toda la disciplina que te sea posible.
Es probable que también necesites suplementación, pero solo aplica en los casos cuando se pruebe clínicamente que tu cuerpo posee algún tipo de déficit o carencia y es necesario recurrir a la medicina para compensar allí donde falta. Cabe indicar que este 'empujón' extra siempre tiene que estar aconsejado por un médico o un nutricionista de confianza.
Pero, ¿cuánto tu genética te juega o no a favor? Lo primero que debes tener en cuenta es cuál es la forma primaria de tu cuerpo o biotipo, el que se constituye en tu primer indicador visible... a menos que quieras someterte a pruebas de laboratorio, que siempre serán mucho más seguras:
- Si tiendes a estar delgado, por lo mismo no acumulas mucha grasa corporal y tu masa muscular es poca, tu biotipo podría ser ectomorfo.
- Si tiendes a engordar, acumulas mucha grasa corporal (la que no debe confundirse con masa muscular), tu biotipo podría ser endomorfo.
- Si tiendes a tener masa muscular sin necesidad de ejercitarte, no acumulas grasa corporal (o te puedes deshacer rápidamente de ella), y tu contextura siempre guarda rasgos atléticos, tu biotipo podría ser mesomorfo.
Dependiendo de cuáles sean tus metas deportivas, se tendrá que diseñar un plan que funcione específicamente a tu biotipo. Por lo general los ectomorfos y endomorfos requerirán un tipo muy especial de entrenamiento, y su capacidad de alcanzar el físico que buscan puede tomar varios meses o hasta años; en cambio, los mesomorfos podrían tomar unos meses en mejorar su forma y de allí apuntar al objetivo físico que buscan. Por eso, recuerda siempre que lo que parece funcionar en otra persona no necesariamente funcionará contigo.
Por otro lado, si no eres mesomorfo, no te desesperes ni busques 'soluciones mágicas'. Paciencia, buen humor y disciplina tendrán que ser tus constantes.
Igual si eres mesomorfo, no peques de autosuficiente porque una cosa es tener algunas ventajas comparativas físicas respecto a otras personas, pero descuidarse no garantiza estar en forma.
en base a este primer dato y a tus objetivos de desarrollo físico, se diseñará tu plan de alimentación y tu régimen de entrenamiento. Aquí no podemos darte una fórmula de uso general; simplemente te recomendamos que dialogues mucho con tu instructor para realizar el diseño y tener algún mecanismo que permita controlar progresos (usualmente será las medidas corporales, el rendimiento en los entrenamientos, tu propia capacidad de motivación).
Lo que sí es común para todos los biotipos es el tiempo de descanso. Sea cual fuere tu actividad deportiva, ocho a diez horas de sueño profundo te permitirán recuperarte y construir la forma deseada.
Pero si tu estilo de vida no te permite tantas horas de descanso, debes trabajar seriamente en disciplinarte mediante un horario, el que seguirás con entusiasmo y actitud.

How Much Do genetics Influence On Me?
The very enthusiastics say it's not related and the less motivated use it as an excuse, but what does science say about?
By ChulucanasGym
Model: Henry Hernández*
Talking in strictly clinic terms, Genetics do influence on building the body you wish, what means your body's whole characteristics and those come inherited in you by generations influence in your capability of increasing muscular mass, or losing body fat, or having more stamina, or being stronger,... everything or anything them.
However, Genetics do not determine completely your final body shape. If you can't change it in its programming, you will know it for taking it advantage or balancing it at level you're looking for, through diet, training, and a resting regime correctly designed and followed as much disciplined as you can.
It's probable you also need supplementation, but it only applies in case when clinically proven your body reports some deficit or scarce, and it's necessary running to the medicine for compensating there where it lacks. It's good to mention this extra puling has ever to be advised by a trustable medic or nutricionist.
But, how much do genetics play in your favor, or not? The first you must have in mind what your body's primary shape or biotype is, which turns into your first visible indicator... unless you want to have some lab tests, what will be ever much safer.
Depending on what your sport goals are, it would design a plan that works straight to your biotype. Generally Endomorphes and Ectomorphes will require a very special type of training, and their capability to reach the shape they look for, can take many months or years even. Despite, Mesomorphes could take few months to improve their shape, so target to body goal they're looking for. That's why you have to remember that it could be working for one individual not necessarily works to you.
In the other hand, if you're not Mesomorph, don't desperate or look for magic solutions neither. Patience, good humor sense, and discipline will have to be your constants.
And if you're Mesomorph, please don't be self-sufficient because one thing is having some comparative physical advantages compared to other people, but uncaring doesn't guarantee to keep fit.
Based upon this first tip and your body achievement objectives, your feeding and training plan will be designed. We can't give you here a formula for general using. Simply we recommend you to talk muchly to your trainer for doing the design and having some mechanism allowing to control the progress (usually body measuring, routines performance, your own motivation capability).
What indeed is common for every biotype is the resting time. Whatever your sport activity is, 8-10 hours of deep sleeping will you rcover and build the desired shape.
But if your lifestyle doesn't allow too many resting hours, you must work seriously on get disiplined through a schedule, that you'll follow enthusiastic, full of attitude.

Regresemos a la Naturaleza
Por Ronald Benites
Hay un lugar donde se pone a prueba todo el esfuerzo y sacrificio que desplegamos en el gimnasio: el medio natural, el aire libre, allí donde la electricidad y la tecnología son de uso limitado, donde somos nosotros en medio de la Creación.
Muy pocos recordamos, o queremos recordar, que mucho antes de que existieran las redes inalámbricas y los teléfonos inteligentes, los seres humanos teníamos que estar en forma para ir en medio de los bosques, las montañas y el agua buscando nuestro sustento. Hacía falta estar bien alimentado pero también tener los músculos fuertes y flexibles para podernos mover con rapidez, sagacidad y éxito; de lo contrario era imposible sobrevivir.
Incluso cuando nos fuimos organizando en asentamientos humanos como los pueblos o las primeras ciudades, la actividad física constante era básica para ganarnos la vida.
Conforme nuestro conocimiento permitió que la tecnología se desarrolle más, también hemos ido perdiendo esa conexión con ese medio donde nos desafiábamos y nos desafiaban a sobrevivir. En cierto modo, la comodidad de un techo y la inmediatez de un click nos ha ido despegando de nuestros espacios ancestrales, y aunque tratemos de recrearlos a pocos metros de nuestros hogares o dentro de ellos, no es lo mismo.
Por eso, para quien se exige constantemente en un gimnasio o un centro deportivo, el retorno a la Naturaleza no debe considerarse como una actividad extravagante sino necesaria, no como un hecho extraordinario sino como una costumbre continua.
La razón es tan simple como que el contacto con la Naturaleza nos revitaliza al respirar el aire puro, al obligarnos a estar en constante actividad física, a resolver nuestras carencias con creatividad, a maravillarnos con los procesos y las interacciones de los seres vivos y el paisaje... porque de ahí vinimos, y ahí tenemos que regresar tan frecuentemente como podamos para limpiarnos
el alma.
Podríamos decir que, desafortunadamente, nuestros espacios urbanos cada vez más ahogan nuestros espacios naturales, pero en cierto modo somos responsables de ese proceso al no plantearnos un crecimiento ordenado y un aprovechamiento más racional del medio y la forma cómo vivimos.
Por eso, es deseable que, además de pedir que nuestros servicios básicos estén debidamente implementados y satisfechos, también debemos incorporar el respeto y la conservación de nuestros espacios naturales en los que podamos intervenir preventivamente sobre nuestra salud física, mental y hasta espiritual. Espacios en los que no solo podamos realizar actividad física o practicar deporte, sino en los que también podamos meditar, producir alimentos saludables
y hasta seguir terapias de diferente tipo.
Nuestras autoridades actuales o aspirantes tienen allí un punto de agenda interesante que no deben obviar, sino promover, gestionar y defender.
En lo personal, disfruto mucho de estar en contacto con la Naturaleza: siento que limpio mi alma; y para fortuna hay muchos espacios alrededor de Chulucanas,
mi ciudad, donde puedo disfrutarlos tras avanzar unos pocos minutos sea a pie, corriendo, o en bicicleta (de hecho, las fotos de mí mismo en este artículo fueron tomadas en este lugar).
Aunque confieso que tengo una gran debilidad por la sierra, por la que siempre voy a sentirme maravillado. No sé. Quizás algún día llegar a vivir allí,
comer rico y saludable, ejercitar mi cuerpo y mi mente mientras escucho a los animales o el agua de los arroyos como fondo... en fin, regresar a ese espacio
donde alguna vez el ser humano aprendió a ser humano.
Let's Return To Nature
By Ronald Benites
There is a place where all the effort and sacrifice we display at the gym is tested - the natural mean, outdoors, right there where electtricity and technology are limited use, where we are among the Creation.
Very few of us remember, or want to remember, that much before wireless and smartphones existed, human beings had to be in-shape for going amid the forests, the mountains, and the water, looking for our livelihood. It was necessary to be well fed but also having strong and flexible muscles for moving forward fastly, sagaciously, successfully. Despite it, surviving was impossible.
Inclusive when we were setting down as human settlements as towns or first cities, constant physical activity was basic to sustain our life.
As our knowledge allowed the technology developed muchly, we also were losing the connection to tat mean where we encourage or were encouraged to survive. In some sense, the confort of a roof or the immediacy of a click have been taking off our ancestral spaces, and altough we try to recreate few yards away our homes or inside them, it's not the same.
So, for who works out hard constantly at the gym or a sportscenter, the return to Nature must not be considered as an extravagant but necessary activity, not like an extraordinary milestone but a frequent habit.
The reason is so simple as the contact to Nature revitalize us when breathing pure air, forcing to be in constant physical activity, solving our lacks with creativity, getting amazed by the processes and interactions of living beings to the landscape... because we came from there and we have to return there as often as we can for cleaning our soul.
We could say that unfortunately our urban spaces drown our natural spaces much more everytime, but we are responsible in some sense about that process when we refuse to propose an ordered growing and a more rational exploitation of the environment, and the manner we live.
So it's desirable that we must incorporate the respect and conservation of our natural spaces where we can intervene preventively for our physical, mental, and even spiritual health, also demanding our basic services to be correctly implemented and satisfied. Spaces where we can practice physical activity and sports, meditate, produce healthy food, and even follow therapies of diverse kind too.
Our actual or aspirant authorities have there a straight interesting agenda item they must not skip but promoting, managing and defending.
Personally, I enjoy a lot being in contact to Nature. I feel I clean my soul, and there are fortunately many spaces around Chulucanas, my city, where I can reload myself after going some minutes up by walking, running, or biking (actually, the pictures of myself on this article were taken in this place).
But I confess I have a big predilection by the mountains, abouth those I am going to feel ever wondered. You know. Maybe become living there some day further, eating tasty and healthy, working out my body and soul while listening to the animals or the creeks' water in the background... in the end, returning to that space where the human learned once upon a time to be human.
