The hardest lift to master is your Ego. 🧠🛑
We live in a world of "30-day transformations" and "instant gratification." But here is the professional truth that most influencers won't tell you:
True hypertrophy (muscle growth) is a slow, biological process.
If you are sacrificing form to add lbs to the bar ("Ego Lifting"), you are actually robbing your muscles of growth. When you swing the weight, you use momentum. When you use momentum, you remove tension.
And tension is the language your muscles speak.
Here is the hierarchy of growth:
1️⃣ Stimulus: Control the weight. eccentric loading (the way down) is where the magic happens.
2️⃣ Recovery: You don't grow in the gym. You grow while you sleep. If you’re getting 5 hours of sleep, your workout was a waste.
3️⃣ Fuel: You can't build a house without bricks. Undereating = zero growth.
Stop trying to impress the room. Impress your future self by doing it right. It takes years, not weeks. Fall in love with the process.
Drop a 💯 if you’re training for longevity and results, not just likes.
