Alexey Panteleyev is a director, producer, businessman and a good friend of mine. In the film industry he is known for working with such personalities as Dmitry Nagiyev, Sergei Belogolovtsev Vadim Shlahter, Nikas Safronov, Vladimir Dovgan, Dmitry Puchkov (Goblin) and others. He is currently working on the creation of two full-scale projects. Alex, as I am, is not a professional sportsman, but he cannot live without physical exercise, because he believes that it helps to get integrity.
In the late 1990s Alex got involved in powerlifting (power triathlon with a barbell). And yet, for almost 15 years, he trains with great pleasure. All beginners ask the question: how quickly will they make progress? Nothing happens instantly, there are no miracles. You need to love sport, you have to get used to it and you need to have a desire. Then, you will get the result over time. Now Alexey’s trainings give him energy to work and strengthens his character and willpower. It is very important, because willpower helps to cope with any difficult situation. You have no need to go to gym, if you do not want to become a successful and healthy person. There is a small nuance: according to Alexei, the most important thing in life, in all its aspects, is to think about the future. We should constantly imagine ourselves in six months, 5 years, 10 years, tomorrow.
Pay attention to what you are doing in order to have good results in the future. Successful people think about tomorrow. It is advisable to consider every action as a small step towards success, to the most desirable future. Compare yourself to the average person. Are you trying to take pleasure here and now? A moment’s pleasure, which leads to negative consequences… For instance, a person takes coffee, drinks and enjoys it. People do not notice the effect of caffeine, which comes in 3-4 hours and increases nervous irritability. But since many people drink coffee regularly, the do not pay attention to it and the state of irritation becomes constant.
People are always chasing some pleasures. For example, alcohol has a quick effect. It is able to create the illusion of happiness and a human being is constantly striving to get this sensation, reaching it with blurring consciousness. And during exercise you feel an influx of positive energy.
Good physical shape is one of the bases of a successful life. Alexey, a person who engages in physical exercise almost the entire life, cannot imagine how it is possible to abandon sport even for one year. Think about what happens to your body, — Alexey recommends. The body must always be athletic and feel energy flow.
