"Brethren",... I'm struggling here. My days are getting longer, and my workouts are getting more intense, and the comp is creeping up (diet starts in 4 weeks). I awoke this morning at 0400 know I had to go to the GYM and bang iron, but all MOTIVE was gone. I thought, how can I survive much longer like this,... days starting 0400 with two workouts, full 9 hour shift, and college classes finally ending at 2100 (maybe). Not excluding other nonsense sprinkled on top (i.e. wife, kids, daycare.). I talked to my workout brethren at the GYM and they laughed at the chaotic degree of training I do. The “VOICE” hasn’t spoken to me in a few days, and I can no longer tone out the other patrons working out in the GYM. Needing a little HARDCORE push from my brethren.

Focus on the weight brother, when your feet hit the floor know that it's waiting for you .. in the cold dark, sitting on the racks and shelves. The steel my friend. It waits for you .. it pushes you .. it challenges you. It's going to wait for you all day, it waits for war. It wants to crush you, to break you down! We are all in this fight together, you and me and the rest of us. That pain you feel, that burning you feel when the weights coming down .. you remember ALL OF US feel that shit to. Your not alone in this .. so my question to you .. will you suffer with me brother ?
Just think, your competition gets out of bed every single morning and does what they have to regardless of other crap in their life. Why? Motivation. What is their motivation? You are brother. The fear of the fact that YOU are going to be a fuckin monster. Bigger, more cut. Every rep they do isn't just for them, it's for you as well. They will bust out every single rep with you in mind. Because they want to beat you. They want to destroy you. They are your fucking enemy.
Regardless of any other bullshit that's going on in their life, all they can think about is you. They turn their fear into intensity. They want that spotlight, they want to take it away from you. They want you to lose and dissapoint your friends and family. It isn't about a shiny piece of metal around their neck or a metal statue. It's about the look on YOUR face when they have their number called and not you.
So what the fuck are you still sitting there reading this for? You have a fucking job to do.
