Daily Mindset
“It’s not that I’m so smart, it’s that I stay with problems longer.” – Albert Einstein
Adaptation is our most powerful weapon.
And it’s not limited to what we do inside the gym.
When we think back to a workout, where we spur adaptation, we can all agree that it’s quite the experience. And it’s freaking hard (which is why we love it). When we are working through something on the cerebral level, shouldn’t we expect a similar struggle?
Both for mind and body… this is where the magic happens.
Inside the gym and out, embrace challenges one and the same.
A chance to learn, grow, and come back even stronger than before.
