If you know me at all, you know I am obsessed with the power of our mental capacity.
Why is it that some people are ultra successful and some people are NOT?
Or lets put it in fitness terms…
Why is it some people push harder than others?
Why do some people have a ton of improvements and success and some people never really “Get it” and end up stopping/quitting?
Why can some people stick to healthy living better than others?
Now questions to ask YOURself…
When is the last time you have given YOUR BEST effort?
Do you do your best each and every time you Workout?
What holds you back?
What grade would you give yourself in your fitness career up to this point? Are you coasting through?
The great thing about fitness is you have an opportunity to improve every single time you workout!
Below is a cool blog I found to help you mentally train yourself not only for your workouts, but in life as well. “Train your brain like your muscles and everything will improve for the good.”
Enjoy!
