Many of these will likely turn into their own post one day. Accept the following as unalterable laws of the jungle:
- Lifting is more mental than it is physical
- There is no shortcut. Stop looking for hacks and quick fixes
- Do not take advice from anybody who has not accomplished (or is at least working toward) what you are trying to accomplish
- Stop making up excuses why you can’t squat
- Do not use machines (with the exception of pulleys)
- Supplements will not make much of a difference in your strength or fitness level, and 99% of them are worthless
- Nobody is coming to save you – you have to motivate yourself to train
- This lifestyle is difficult, and you will be tempted to quit. When you experience failure, get back up and try again
- There is no perfect diet or training protocol. Stop searching for one because it’s really just an excuse to procrastinate
- Steroids are much more common than you think. Do not touch them (or SARMs/peptides/anything banned by WADA)
