Have you ever thought about lifting weights in the gym as therapy?

There is something so pure, so exuberant, so captivating and something that keeps you in the moment when approaching a big lift

A lot of people won't know what I am talking about and thats ok!
But to be able to experience being so focused on one goal that the noises around you start to drown out as you approach the bar and the only thing that matters in that moment is you, the bar, the weight and if you are going to win this battle or not.

It is a very compelling experience, one that I am grateful to have been a part of and I hope that I will be a life long strength advocate and experience many more times in the years to come.

If you workout for looks, for fat loss, for endurance, for anything else, that is amazing, I am truly happy that you are pursuing something in the gym.
However I challenge you to at least one time in the gym try to understand what I am talking about.
One of my greatest memories was the feeling of squatting over 500lbs
A goal that at the time, I was obsessed with conquering.
Find what you want to conquer, Find your obsession
