Here’s a quote from martial arts master Bruce Lee that relates to training and life…
A river cuts through rock not by strength, but by persistence.
When it comes to your workouts, do everything you can to persist—stay consistent with your training…
Change your workout when things get stale, take a day off with no guilt if you feel stressed or overtrained, and don’t think you have to do any particular exercise…
For decades I thought I had to do heavy barbell back squats, or all would be lost…
After multiple back injuries, I finally hit delete—haven’t done barbell squats in years…
My quads actually improved with sissy squats and cable squats, and my back pain disappeared.
Even better, I no longer dread training legs—and with no spine compression, I may have gotten taller.
That’s just one example. Another was in yesterday’s newsletter: I discussed switching from the Full-Body Wave Workout to the upper-body/lower-body split Never Stop Growing program….
It was an instant fireball of motivation. Whatever it takes so that you look forward to your training to keep gaining….
Persistence is king.
Train hard—and smart—for BIG results.
