My hard drive died. Every PR video I ever filmed is gone.
160 squat, 170 deadlift, 120 bench, 85 OHP at 85kg BW.
Zero proof left.
Starting the receipts over. On camera. Today.
One thing I don鈥檛 understand is why some lifters treat rest days like a sign of laziness.
You trained hard all week. Your body needs time to recover.
What exactly are you trying to prove by dragging yourself into the gym every single day?

Look at those shoulder carefully. If egolifting on lateral raises built that then I'm doing the same lol

Big ego on the bench, tiny dumbbells on the side raises. Those side delts aren't going to build themselves, champ! 馃拃馃挭馃槄
I train during the week. Saturdays and Sundays are for recovery.
No guilt, no trying to squeeze in an extra session because I feel like I鈥檓 not doing enough.
I鈥檝e got a bigger body to build, and I鈥檇 rather be able to keep training properly than spend every day in the gym.

As long as you are consistent and pushing hard, you can pretty much achieve anything you want to
This is the kind of nonsense that makes beginners think they need to live in the gym.
3 solid training days can produce better results than 6 days with no proper plan.

Different sizes. Different disciplines. Same obsession with greatness.
Strength comes in many forms, but the discipline, sacrifice and dedication behind it are universal.
Your physique may be different, but the work ethic speaks the same language. Respect is earned under the bar, not measured on a scale.
This is the goal.
I want to be bigger and stronger now, but I also want to be able to walk into a gym at 59 and still move serious weight.

59 years old. Still showing up. Still putting in the work.
Everyone wants the body, the strength, the results. But few are willing to embrace the boring days, the discipline, and the consistency it takes to earn them.
Age doesn't stop you. Excuses do.
Respect the process. 馃挭

50 Cent in his prime had one of the most insane physiques I鈥檝e ever seen.
Broad shoulders, a tiny waist, defined abs, and serious muscle mass all without steroids.
Name ONE Black man who has had a more aesthetic physique than this. And no, we鈥檙e not talking about who鈥檚 bigger. We鈥檙e talking about PROPORTIONS.
I disagree with the competition part. For some people, lifting is literally a competition.
There's nothing wrong with wanting to be the strongest person in the room.
The problem is being stupid about how you get there.
PAY ATTENTION!!!
The ego that blinds you from understanding that there鈥檚 a weight that you鈥檙e simply not ready to lift is an ego you should eliminate.
And this applies to both men and women.
I鈥檓 not saying you shouldn鈥檛 challenge yourself or attempt heavier weights, that鈥檚 literally how you get stronger. But there鈥檚 a difference between challenging yourself intelligently and letting your ego dictate what you lift.
Progressive overload exist for a reason. Nobody becomes incredibly strong in a day.
The gym isn鈥檛 a competition to prove who鈥檚 the strongest person in the room. It鈥檚 a place to improve yourself, build strength, and become better overtime.
Know your limit and respect your current strength. Stop putting your body under unnecessary risk. Lift to get stronger. Not to impress people.
