There will be times when you want to stop, but hold strong and reach out to your coach if you can. Even the pros go through tough times, so don’t freak out because you do. Just don’t let your immediate wants take over the gains and steps you have taken to prep for a competition.

…and then we met, my friend, my lover, my wife, my daughter—those with whom I choose to populate my existence. Not my Facebook friends, and not those I “like” with the meaningless click of a button.

Maybe not everybody has to be a consistent leg press farter or leg press clencher. Maybe some people straddle the line, dip one toe into one pond one week and the other the next. Maybe some people have uncommitted flatulence tendencies. What I’m really driving at: some people in this world are willing to go for it, whatever it takes.

By the end of the first week, I was a physical wreck, having a difficult time placing one foot in front of the other, tying my shoes, getting dressed, walking up and down stairs. I thought of the countless clients I have nearly crippled with extreme leg workouts, pushing their bodies to the brink before bringing them back. I felt momentary empathy.

Walking around the gym, watching all the team members train, you realize that there is no BS going on here. There is some SERIOUS work going on.
