A workout isn’t a competition. Every day isn’t game day. 

Can you imagine if athletes like boxers or football players had a fight or a game on the daily? It would be disastrous! 

Every workout is an opportunity to learn, practice and improve, not beat yourself to a pulp. That’s why it’s called a “training session.” 

Here’s what matters and doesn’t matter when it comes to your workouts:

What matters 

• You felt better afterward than you did before 
• Your mood is elevated 
• You learned something 
• You progressed in movement quality and/or strength 
• You used great technique 
• You felt accomplished 

What doesn’t matter

• You got super sweaty 
• You got sore 
• Your watch says you burned a lot of calories 
• You lifted lots of weight with bad form 
• You got lots of rounds with crappy form

Your workout is about one person…you.
