Summary

Is your training fun!?

Niki Sims and Andrew Jackson discuss why they entitled this podcast "Beast over Burden," feedback they've seen from listeners, and how they've come to think more about training for life.

Is Your Training Fun!?

Some people seem to enjoy training more than others - Matt and Scott have discussed so-called "medicine takers."

Acknowledging this, however, you should not dread every single workout. As your training session looms, your blood pressure should not increase. Training should not suck the joy out of you.

Andrew & Niki have noticed, both from the client and coach perspectives, that despite the effectiveness and helpfulness of the MED programming approach, sometimes more stress - even the minimum effective additional dose of stress - is counterproductive.

Increasing stress in these situations is not ineffective for physiological reasons, but because the client simply cannot continue to grind away with the same workouts and lifts. Is your training fun?

A change needs to happen - and that change isn't the stereotypical "MED" change.

Beast Over Burden

Training should be fun. Of course, we don't begin to train for fun, but rather because we've identified trends we want to stop and problems we would like to solve.

You want to be stronger, healthier, more confident. These things actually enable you to have fun outside the gym.

If you don't burden yourself with challenging training, then physical limitations will burden you later in life. Then you'll burden your loved ones.

Training empowers you throughout your life, making you more capable and helping prevent your reliance on others as you age.

Is your training empowering?

0:00.0	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
1:32.4	your goals are. Get matched with your coach now at barbelllogic.com slash coaching.
