“Strength does not come from winning. Your struggles develop your strengths. When you go through hardships and decide not to surrender, that is strength.” Arnold Schwarzenegger
As you work on each element of a work out, remember you are training in every moment. When it’s hard, you are building a stronger you. When you feel slow, you are pushing forward, constantly moving to complete the task. When you struggle to Rx or PR, your resolve to show up, keep training, trying and iimproving, makes you stronger physically and mentally.
