What's going on, fam? Welcome to episode 2998. Today is Ask Papa Swoleo. I sent out a swole text to members to ask me anything. So let's get into some of those questions.

The first one is going to be from Lacey. And Lacey asks Papa Swolo, did training and discipline come naturally to you?

So many people, quote, fall off. Some used to, or some kind of a typo.

But it's no longer a struggle. I've never fallen off training. I have fallen off from nutrition.

So the answer to this is, I don't really know how to answer this. The answer is yes,

because what progress are you going to get from doing something intermittently? It did come naturally

in the sense that I followed principles from professional bodybuilders, from what I've seen

from people that have been and were currently successful

and it's really about mindset it's about executing and doing it when you don't feel like it's

staying to a program staying on a pattern you're not going to make progress with anything if you're

not consistent and you're not dedicated you're not disciplined so to be honest it never really

factored in

that I would just do it randomly and expect amazing results. And that's the problem with so many

things in our society today is people expect outstanding results from putting in sub

100% effort. You know, even if you put in 100% effort, there's no guarantee that that effort is going to

bear fruit. So you have to make sure that not only are you relentlessly consistent, but you're

consistent in your pursuit of adapting and adjusting in order to make sure that that progress

is there. Just because you are consistent and disciplined does not mean that you are guaranteed results.

I think this is one of the most important things that people forget is that just because you're

consistent and discipline doesn't mean that you are guaranteed or that you deserve results.

A lot of people go to the fucking gym, but they don't do the right things. They're not consistent

with their seven pillars. They're not consistent with their nutrition. So I always say, and I have evidence online, I haven't always been perfect with my nutrition. I don't even know what perfect is even now. And I'm sure, even on the day to day, I might not eat enough calories or I might not X, Y, and Z, but I'm eating the right foods and I'm always trying
