It is often a challenge to find a topic for Jasmine and I when we write. The more I actively think about it the more elusive the topic becomes. I am not sure about you but working out always clears my mind; it allows the unencumbered flow of thoughts and ideas to come. This is when inspiration comes.

Spending more time focusing on social media or whatever rather than their purpose in the gym. 5, 10 mins goes by when they realize it’s time to perform another set. Watch how they lift too. It’s mindless and really just counting reps so that they can get right back on their phone. The f

I needed a different focus for today's workout. One thing I learned many years ago in my competitive carer was, when things are feeling a little flat and my training feels stagnate, I would travel and go to different gyms. Getting into a new environment and new energy can help you get a new lease of life in your workouts again. This could be a great idea for everyone? The 45 minute drive was well worth it because it worked like a charm. I had one of my best leg workouts in a

Most failures could have been converted into successes if someone had held on another minute or made more effort! When you have the potential for success within you, adversity and temporary defeat only help you prepare to reach great heights of success. Without adversity, you would never develop the qualities of persistence, patients and perseverance that are so essential to enduring success. Many people have escaped the jaws of defeat and achieved great victories because the
