M4:D7 (D307) Strength

  

What's on my mind today?

This transformation game requires strength.  It isn't enough to set up a plan and begin to work it, you must have the strength to get through it to the end.  This strength comes from within yourself.  It isn't something someone else can give you.  We can encourage you, support you, cheer you on, but we can't give you the strength you need to succeed.

I have found over the past year that strength can come and go.  It is what you do with yourself during times of weakness that really matters.  You have to avoid behaviors that will undo what you have already done.  Frankly, I believe we all go through periods where our behaviors don't propel us forward, but that is not as disasterous  as behavior that sets us back.  A holding pattern is never desireable, but it is ok as long as we don't fall backwards.

Dig deep and you will find your strength.  It is there.  If it wasn't, you wouldn't be here reading these words.  You would be off eating the wrong things and not exercising.  You would not be the slightest bit interested in reading what I have to say because what I have to say only effects one person—me.  This blog is all about me and what I am doing.  If it helps you, that's an awesome thing.  I honestly hope and pray that it helps millions of people.

Great workout!  I had never done dumbbell deadlifts before.  It is different because you have to support the weight in each hand.  Grip really becomes a huge issue.  This was a great leg workout.  I really felt the burn.  It is interesting doing body part splits because as each day goes by a new body part is experiencing DOMs.  What a trip that is.

Strength from within is a powerful driving force during a transformation.

    I totally agree.
    Its all about willpower, and how to use it. If you have the willpower, you can archieve anything, but without it your lost.
    Like you said, you cant make people want things that they dont seem to want.
    Sometimes it has to get worse before it can get better.
    Your doing an awesome job, man.
