Summary

Matt and Scott discuss whether you should get hyped for a lift. They tend to say no, unless you've practiced getting hype and your form is good.

If your form isn't locked in, don't hype. 

Also, there is an importance for regularity before lifts. Because of this, you shouldn't act completely differently for PR attempts than lighter attempts. Do the same thing. 

If you're an advanced lifter, you might have a pre-PR attempt rituatual that is slightly different than a normal attempt. For Matt, this doesn't bring hype but rather focus. You need to be intensely focused and present for these attempts. 

For many lifters, having the one cue that you should focus on can help. Your coach and you develop the one cue for you to focus your technical focus (might be KNEES OUT for the squat on the way up, for example). 

Lastly, consider the differences between the meet and lifting in your garage and gym and practice for those differences (practice squatting and pressing looking into an open room as opposed to close to a wall).

Hey listeners, this is normally when we would talk about a holiday sale or how

0:07.4

now is the right time to start with online coaching because of how much money

0:10.5

you can save. However, as I met with our marketing team earlier this month to

0:14.8

discuss promotional ideas, we found ourselves focusing on the ideal outcomes

0:19.3

for people who want to work with a coach. And that called to mind how many of

0:23.0

our clients got into this for the form corrections and ended up making real

0:27.8

life transformations through strength training. We realized that the ideal

0:31.9

barbell logic client is not afraid of hard work. They don't just have goals, they

0:36.5

are driven by continual self-improvement. They pursue strength because they

0:40.7

care deeply about the people who they love who depend on them. We know that

0:45.6

price is always a consideration when it comes to deciding to sign up for

0:48.9

something. But our successful clients tell us that in addition to carefully

0:53.0

deciding where to invest their money, they're also very intentional about how they

0:57.3

invest their time. And when you care about your time that much, there is fear

1:01.6

that you could waste your time and not see the results you want. If any of this

1:05.6

sounds like you, I'm here to make you a promise. You give us six months of two to

1:10.6

four workouts a week and if you don't see changes in your strength or form, we

1:14.8

will give you all of your money back. That's all six months. The worst case

1:19.3

scenario is it ends up costing you nothing. The best case scenario is you invest

1:24.1

in yourself and you get exactly what you want out of your training. The only

1:28.0

risk is about on yourself. It's time to place that bet and put your money where

your goals are. Get matched with your coach now at www.barbelllogic.com slash
