Just wanted to start a thread for discussing things related to the iron game that put you in a good mood or make you all the more motivated to train more. Two examples for me both occured last night.
Failing to set a PR initially, then trying it again after some rest and getting it. This happened to me last night at squats. I had to bail on my first attempt at a new pr, but my training partners motivated me to try it again saying it looked like I could of had it. I got back under the bar and picked it up and with my training partners spotting me I went for it and nailed the rep almost perfectly. It was great; better than if I had gotten it the first time around.
2)Shopping for food after a workout. I just love that lingering feeling of fatigue as I walk through the isles and pick out quality food for the week. I feel like I’m esuring that fatigue I feel is going to turn in great results.
What kind of stuff puts a spring in your step when it comes to the gym?
Coming back off of a scheduled break to find that not only have none of your lifts decreased but have actually increased. Makes you realize that if you work hard enough, that break time is that much more beneficial.
Being completely freaking exhausted after a workout, and then rewarding my self with more reps or more sprints or whatever.
About day 5 of the week, when your SICK AND TIRED of eating brocolli and chicken, and you could fry up some onion rings at any MOMENT, but you dont, you add a little soy sauce to the brocolli and you chomp that grilled chicken down with a huge smile on your face, knowing some day that IT WILL PAY OFF PEOPLE! PEACE!
All of the above, and I have to throw in something about girls.
The feeling I get when my girl and others grab my arms,legs,chest, you name it,they grab it. And they Love It.
That wooing and cooing sound they make is Priceless, and the only way to get it is to earn it in the gym. Now that i’m thinking about it, I gotta go thrash some weight.
Thanks.
