To get fit, follow a plan with a goal, not just random exercise.
Physical Fitness
The marriage of discipline and biology - where willpower meets physiology
A bit of movement can do much more good than some medicine.
Looking good is a bonus, but feeling strong and capable is the real reason to work out.
I prefer skill-based fitness (calisthenics) than pure strength-based (weightlifting).
Two-week break in exercising can have a serious impact on your performance.
Exercise machines are good as long as you're an exercise machine salesman. Free weights or body-weight exercises are much better.
Fitness is a lifelong habit, not a quick fix - keep at it steadily.
Resting after workouts is just as important as the workout itself. Over-training invites injury and burnout.
Civilise the mind but make savage the body.
The body achieves what the mind believes.
Fitness is not about being better than someone else. It's about being better than you used to be.
Strength doesn't come from what you can do. It comes from overcoming the things you once thought you couldn't.
Your body can stand almost anything. It's your mind that you have to convince.
Consistency is more important than perfection.
The only bad workout is the one that didn't happen.
Don't wish for a good body, work for it.
Fitness is like a relationship. You can't cheat and expect it to work.
The pain you feel today will be the strength you feel tomorrow.
Your health is an investment, not an expense.
Great things are done by a series of small things brought together.
Take care of your body. It's the only place you have to live.
Excuses don't burn calories.
Success starts with self-discipline.
The harder you work for something, the greater you'll feel when you achieve it.
Don't stop when you're tired. Stop when you're done.
Your future self will thank you for the choices you make today.
Strength training is not about how much you can lift. It's about how much you can handle when life tries to crush you.
Fitness is 10% inspiration and 90% perspiration.
The body is the servant of the mind.
You are one workout away from a good mood.
