+ 4 HEAD ON
I have a little saying I frequently use in my life that I thought I would share in case you have never heard it. It actually helps me focus on occassion and while I began using it for my lifting, I found I got addicted to it and started using it to confront other obstacles in my world as well.
We tend to want to put things off or avoid this or that and this philosophy rather than just a phrase has really helped me. It began when I heard it and related it to those days you need a real big lift knwoing you have dropped off a bit and I would get to the gym and just not feel like the hard push you know? Once I employed this little gem its like I almost wanted it to be tougher knowing I am moving things too big to move for my energy today. Its as though if it does not push my limits I don't like it. Now its a good goal for virtually anything I need to do but really want to put off and rather than try to avoid it I instead set my mind to confront it and do it now.
So when you walk into the gym today and look at all that work, put this in your head and tell me if it helps if you have never done so before ..."WALK THROUGH THIS SHIT, NOT AROUND IT"
Its all in our heads and anything we can say or do to increase our strength mentally, spiritually or physically is welcome. Feel free to share yours if you like, always looking for tools.

TxBigBoyIF IT'S NOT BURNING THEN IT'S NOT WORKING!
Just kinda how I gauge my workouts. In the gym I live for that burn and I don't stop until I feel it on every set!
tread-mHeeeeellllz yeah! Big Tex always brang it! That one works well for general guidelines for bong use as well, but hell the T know dat!
TxBigBoyHaha fa sho! Toke! toke! take it to tha head!
THIS TOO SHALL PASS!!
...I guess I'm depressingly resigned to my fate. :-(
Ironically, once I get started and pumped up; I don't want to stop.
tread-mI like that one greg but its what I use after I eat post workout in the head. What, I eat a lot of rice!
LOL! I completely overlooked that! You just opened a whole new "motivational door" for me!
PAIN IS WEAKNESS LEAVING THE BODY.I use this to push in a couple more reps.
"DO IT TILL YOU SPEW IT" (for those U.S folks spew means vommit or "chuck")
Sometimes i do it just for fun lol
tread-mWe know what the F spew means Nooklet!!! Lmao...that ones bad ass brother, like it!
Nice! No translation needed her bro.
STAY STRAIGHT!.. cause it takes alot less time to get somewhere is you stay a striaght line with it instead of walking around and dodging all the shit you NEED to do.. you want to get results or be a champion then stay straight and do what needs to be done. you will end up there alot faster!.. each day you fucking puss out the further you fall behind
"IF IT'S WORTH DOING...THEN OWN THAT BITCH!" I say this to the new guys in my gym when they complain about the lifting regimen. I also like yours I will have to quote ya on it sometime. When they ask who said it I will just say "A big guru named Tread."
tread-mI like it max! Hell I'm gonna be talkin all kinds of shit at the gym today! Lol
I just got in and I straight up quoted your ass!! The look I got when i said "A guru once said that." was priceless. No telling what was going through their head.
This is great advice, but if you are a masochistic mofo like me and simply love the pain and burn, you'll bust yourself automatically.
Especially love that shit when training legs!
I feel you bro, nothing better then some heavy as squats.
tread-mLegs have to bring pain and heartbreak or you know you sucked today. Lol you do get it done brother!
thanks bro i needed this today
TRAIN TODAY LIKE ITS GONNA BE THE LAST TIME EVER !!!!!!
This does it for me bro, once i have a couple of warm up sets away its all gunz blazin lol then i have to be dragged out the pit kickin and screamin, i would rather have a power rack than most other things in life.
tread-mOh yeah, likey! Thats a damn good way to think V, if I knew today was my last day in the gym I would make it my best day in the gym, love the V juice brother always!
"pain knows no holidays"
tread-mIn the words of Ronnie Coleman...YEEEEEAAH BUDDY!
