Pick Up Something Heavy.

 

If training was nothing more than light weight, slow, squeezed isolation movements, I’d quit.
Fuck that shit. It’s so fucking boring.
This is how most people are introduced to the gym:
Deadlifts are bad for your back. Squats are bad for your knees. Heavy weight causes injuries.
Taught by people who don’t know how to train and look like they don’t train
I honestly believe that's why so many people quit after a short time. 
The training is shit, they see no progress, and it’s boring and tedious. Can anyone blame them for quitting?
If we didn’t live in an age where going to the gym is more about taking pics of yourself in the gym, 3/4 of the gyms would shut down.
“Training? No, no. I’m not here to train. The lighting is awesome! Hows my ass look?”
Thankfully, there is a lot more to training than pretending that easy shit is hard. Some exercises allow you to release every bit of pent-up emotion inside your body. Exercises that will change what you do daily. That will keep you awake at night. That will fill you with fear, dread, anxiety and excitement all at the same time. Exercises that will make you feel alive and not like you’re watching grass grow.
Exercises that will actually change your body and not just make you think you’re huge for 20 minutes.
I honestly believe if more people were introduced to the big compound lifts and shown how much they would change not just their body, but their life, the drop-off rate would decrease.
Of course they’re hard, but most people, as lazy as many are, don’t mind a bit of hard work if they are rewarded for that work.  The problem with light weight training is there is no reward. It’s just shit. So people quit.
I know I would.
Feeling strong is addictive. Making progress is addictive. There is no progress or feeling of strength with light weight.
Training is more than going to the gym and slowly squeezing a light weight, while getting a little sweaty and puffed.
It is literally your opportunity to build yourself into a better version of yourself.
Don’t waste that opportunity with bad training.

Pick up something heavy!
