You get to choose your suffering.
The first photo is me when I was out of shape.
The second is me at the end of a bodybuilding prep. Exhausted, depleted and with a face that barely looked like mine.
Both came with their own form of suffering.
You can suffer from staying comfortable, avoiding the gym, eating whatever you want and never pushing yourself. Drowning in the mind of someone who isn’t happy with how they look.
Or you can suffer through the early mornings, the hard sessions, the cardio, the discipline and the days when you really don’t feel like doing it.
You’re going to suffer either way.
So choose the suffering that moves you forward.
Pick the pain that pays you back.
