Now, I already know that those who are defensive are going to get a little bit pissed off at what I'm about to say.

But here's the thing. If I'm talking to you, you probably need it. And if I'm not talking to you,

you can utilize it. This episode is about tough love. It is about tough love in your training

so that you can push yourself and stop making excuses.

Remember, fitness is a choice.

It's not a chore.

So when you're not getting the results you want

and you know you're not trying hard enough,

you cannot get mad at anyone but yourself. But listen, we all know that I'm here to help.

And we all know that I created insanity. And I'm going into the tough love category today because

one of the things that really makes me sad and somewhat disappointed is when I see people on a path of change and they

have it together and their path and their journey is interrupted not by, you know, something like

a death in a family or a loss of a job or something that's super, super traumatic and life

changing. But when it's interrupted by

nothing other than them, making excuses not to continue to be consistent. Listen, when I go to the

gym at this point, especially when I'm in prep, it is a job for me.

I'm not saying that it needs to be like that for you, but it is a job for me.

I sit in my car before I go into the gym and I'm like, all right, after lock in, I give

rid of every excuses.

My routine actually is to play a song as I'm on my way to the gym that motivates and inspires me.

I let go, like I said, I let go of those excuses before I walk in the door.

And I'm like, you have to go after whatever it is that you want to go after if you want to win.
