Successful Workout or Waste of Time

Successful Workout?

What makes a successful workout? Is a successful workout doing things you are good at? Is it crushing your old score, time or weight? Is it perfect workout condition and you are feeling great? Or is it having all the cards in the world stacked against you? Is it your goat? Is it one that you got nervous for? Think about the last time you were in this predicament – it is hot, you are still sore from the other day and you are about to do something that is going to suck. Put your head down – step off the proverbial ledge and come out of the gate with the same confidence, fire and motivation you would if it were an easy one…. I think these are ones you work harder for… the ones that keep you up at night… the ones that make you step completely out of your comfort zone… the ones that have you questioning – what am I dong here! These are the ones that stick with you. These are the ones that affirm that you are making a difference. These are the ones that define who you are and what are your intentions. These are the ones that make us winners regardless of weight, time or score. Did you quit? Did you stand over this movement, this obstacle or this workout and say bring it on? Did you pick yourself off the floor – still gasping for air, barely lucid – mentally spent and say to yourself with a little smirk on your face – I did it! That’s what makes a successful workout. ~ The Average Joe
