Motivation Is A Lie - How to Train on Your Worst Days
About this episode
Nobody talks about the workouts that almost don’t happen. The ones after a long day at work, when you’re mentally drained, physically tired, and the last thing you want to do is train. No highlight reel, no music, no perfect conditions. Just you deciding whether or not to show up. Motivation is unreliable. That’s why it can’t be your system.
You don’t need a better plan. You need fewer negotiations with yourself.
The goal isn’t to feel good. The goal is to follow through.
Anyone can train when it’s easy. Consistency is built when it’s not.
