Don't feel nervous about going to the gym. More times than not, the people you are most intimidated by are actually glad that you're there.
This should be everyone's "Step One," no matter what it is you're doing! ππΆ Keep It Mello - Marshmello feat. Omar LinX πΆπ
Pick a few exercises that you want to improve on or maintain and do them at a light intensity for your warm up every single day. πΆπ Simon Patterson-Now I Can Breathe Again ππΆ
A quick story of what happened to me a couple weeks ago in the bathroom.
There are no rules. I grew up on a farm. I wasn't supposed to listen to rap music but I still blasted DMX all day, every day. Today I own a gym. I'm supposed to have a niche carved out but I don't. My life has always been uncategorizable. My gym is now uncategorizable. I don't care that I don't fit into a category, and I don't care if you understand or not. I have no reason and no time to explain. πΆπ Moguai-Gangsta ππΆ
You are your biggest critic. Don't let the fear of how others view you hold you back. πΆπ Joel Fletcher-Rattle ππΆ
I've talked about this before...on days you're not feeling 100%, don't over-do it trying to get back up to speed. Instead, implement one to a few small things that you can be successful with. Then you will be prepared to do a little more on the days to follow. πΆπKolonie-DecemberππΆ
Thanksgiving is just a few days out...make sure to enjoy it with no restrictions! πΆπGiuseppe Ottaviani-MusicaππΆ
For my first Q & A show I answer these questions: 1. Is soreness indicative of a good workout? 2. Should you take a rest day, or do something every day? 3. How do you know when you are ready to progress/take your workout to the next level?
According to Parkinson's Law, you will get a task done in whatever time you have to do it- whether it be 20 minutes, or 2 hours.
Just a quick message as I cruise in for another Squat Saturday with the squad.
I wasn't able to do a pull up until after high school. It took me to take lifting seriously (and to start practicing them daily) to be able to do them. It wasn't pretty at the beginning but I slowly accumulated more and more repetitions, and therefore more and more pull up strength. Today I am willing to challenge (and confident that I can beat) the majority of the people I come across to a pull-up contest. You can do this too. You just have to get started with a small task and build from there.
If you want to learn how to do a movement or get better at any particular exercise, why not do it every single day? If you are always waiting around for your body to feel good enough to train a movement, you're never going to improve at it. High-frequency training! Every day kind of stuff!

Take a small step today to set yourself up for a bigger step tomorrow.
Everyone has days that they struggle. Today is one for me.
What do you need to do to get excited to work out? Drop $300 on some new workout gear? chug a gallon of pre-workout? Whatever it is, do it! πΆπ Danny Howard-Apex ππΆ
There should be no need to look at the Nutritional Facts label on the foods you buy because the foods you buy shouldn't even come with a Nutritional Facts label. Eat more one-ingredient foods and less foods that come in a package with an ingredient list and nutritional information.
Today I am repeating the workout I did yesterday. Just because I feel like it!
You don't need to spend hours at the gym each week and you don't need to be utilizing a ton of different exercises. In fact, I would rather see you perfecting a few exercises rather than getting wrapped up in trying to use too much variety in your workouts. For reference, I only do about 10 exercises over the course of all of my workouts in a given week. Keep it simple!
I am not a know-it-all. I am more of a know-it-none.
