In reply to Jay. Yup it lights the fire but doesn't sustain it.

So true about the motivation. Used to watch 5 minutes before heading to to the gym but after a few times, it lost some stamina. Execution and action is the way to go.

In reply to KA.

I wouldn’t say motivational videos are completely useless BUT most people use them for the wrong reason.

All the videos do is spark a fire but if you don’t actually do anything, the fire quickly fizzles away.

Congrats on doing something yourself, man.

Motivational videos aren’t so bad, it’s just that they are short so the effect won’t stick. You’d have to pour that stuff into your head days and nights until it would get into your guts – so that ultimately, as every good player, you’d start to motivate yourself.
I’ve started mountain biking as a kid because I had mental parents and bike was the only legitimate way to leave the house. I’d go on for hours until I’d start shaking and when that happened, I’d down one or two of those 5g packages of sugar that you get with coffee in some places, and I’d keep going. Eventually in college I joined the boxing club and took up few other things in local gym. It was good but something was missing, guys didn’t really mean the business I think. After college I saw the point, it was like I wasn’t supposed to do this any more, time to get serious and all the rest of it. That was a mistake I made that I let myself be pushed where the society wanted me. Frustrated chap that buys stuff to forget.
I never stopped working out completely but 2 hours of bike per week over the last 2 years cannot compare to what I did in the past. So I am not in a bad shape but I definitely started to see how that change affected my personality. I thought like, ok, this isn’t paying the bills, I am not gonna do that anymore. But since I put the focus out of sport my ability to see new opportunities to let’s say pay bills better, and to go for them, it all started to deteriorate too. And I don’t wanna be that kind of guy. It’s like when you lose all faith and you just do what you are told to. To me this is far far scarier than losing money.

Great article and love your site. Sorry to use the forum wall but I’m not sure how else to contact you since “[email protected]” is sending me back a Message Delivery Failure message when I send emails for some reason. I purchased your program yesterday and have still not received the confirmation email with access to the material. Checked Spam folders, no trace. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

In reply to Alan. Yeah more ppl struggle with diet but I'd say a good chunk of ppl struggle with workouts as well.

I think the hardest part of getting into the best shape in your life has to be diet. Building muscle isn’t supoer hard if you’re putting in the work and eating right. It’s when you have to cut that kills your mind. I’m still stuck in a year-plus limbo that I won’t back away from, either. I’ve been going to The GYM 5 times a week (6 times last week) and it’s not the hard part.

In reply to Jose.

You have a very strong WHY for why you want to get/be in shape.

Most guys just do it to look good and get girls so they never get very far.

Thanks glad you like SS 🙂

In reply to Michael Schwobe.

That’s awesome, Michael.

I’m glad you realized that you weren’t lacking motivation but simply direction. Most people aren’t in a similar case.

Congrats on all your success so far and being self aware enough to set realistic expectations.
