I came across this video months ago and I still watch this video almost everyday. Eric Thomas explains that you need to hold yourself accountable for your actions instead of constantly blaming others. Once you start holding yourself accountable, you start looking at things differently. “You owe you an explanation” – Eric Thomas

This is the first workout post for Workhorse Athletics. This is the exercise I have in store for tonight. Feel free to use this on any day that fits your schedule. The key to bulking is leaving the gym with compete muscle failure. I look for weight that is heavy enough for me to do 6-8 repetition. ALWAYS do more reps if you can. If you reach 8 and feel like you can knock out 1 or 2 more, do the reps. Don’t save yourself for later sets.
***If you finish this workout and still feel like you are not at muscle failure, try this finisher I like to do. Jump on the assisted dip and do sets of 10 reps till failure. Use the least amount of weight first. Continue to add more assistance until you hit failure.***

The first time I saw this photo a rush of “chills” came over my body. It is powerful, yet simple. On the bottom you have an depressed and broken down individual who was so close to success, but gave up, not knowing how close he really was. He will never see or reach the diamonds (success) because he gave in to the negative thoughts, the trials, the tribulations, and decided to quit. On the top you see another person. He is eager to continue. He doesn’t know how long he has to go, but he knows he will be successful if he doesn’t stop working.
You never know how close you are to success. It could be right around the corner. All you have to do is press forward, keep persistent, never quit, and you will be right where you want to be in life.
Good Morning Workhorses,
Make sure you wake up with purpose. Understand what you need to accomplish to make steps towards your goals. Stay focused and driven. It may be a new day, but the GRIND is the same!
