It is important to remember WHY you’re at the gym in the first place.

And I’m not talking about just when you’re walking in the door.

No, I mean you should stay focused for your entire workout. Don’t let the problems of life distract you…when you’re at the gym, you’re there to better yourself, and in that moment, that is the only thing you need to worry about.

This means every exercise and every rep, ask yourself why am I here? Get bigger? Stronger? Slimmer? Whatever the reason, intentionally lifting to better yourself will make you push yourself harder and father.

Who do you think will see progress faster? The person who just goes through the motions of their workout, or the person who focuses on their body and the motion, with the end goal always in mind?

This is the 2nd time I’ve used 35lbs for curls and it still seems to heavy, like I’m forcing it and not getting a good muscle/mind connection. I’m going to drop back down to 30lbs dumbbells next time.

Been up over 24 hours…worked a double shift, then had bearings, and then right into another shift.

But I’m still showing up for my business and moving ahead…

My days of doubles and no sleep are coming to an end!
