Here’s The Trick: Routine Is The Enemy
♡
“Eat meat and vegetables, nuts and seeds, some fruit, little starch and no sugar. Keep intake to levels that will support exercise but not body fat. Practice and train major lifts: Deadlift, clean, squat, presses, C&J, and snatch. Similarly, master the basics of gymnastics: pull-ups, dips, rope climb, push-ups, sit-ups, presses to handstand, pirouettes, flips, splits, and holds. Bike, run, swim, row, etc hard and fast. Five or six days per week mix these elements in as many combinations and patterns as creativity will allow. Routine is the enemy. Keep workouts short and intense. Regularly learn and play new sports.”
- Greg Classman, CrossFit Founder
Obsessed is a word the lazy use to describe the dedicated.
I need to work extra hard these coming weeks because I'm signing up for my first marathon ever - a 10km run in KL. Let's do this!
Quote of the Day: Muhammed Ali
♡
Champions aren't made in gyms. Champions are made from something they have deep inside them a desire, a dream, a vision. They have to have last-minute stamina, they have to be a little faster, they have to have the skill and the will. But the will must be stronger than the skill.
- Muhammed Ali
Motivation of the Day: Michelle Rodriguez
“You have to struggle no matter where you are to get to where you're going.”
"The more confidence you have in yourself and the more you believe that you are destined to do what you are gonna do, it will happen."
Watch her in this badass scene from Machete... The movie was terrible but she (and Jessica Alba) made a good distraction.
"This crazy little party girl who loves to enjoy life actually has a purpose. So, that's really the core of why I've survived so many years and I can go and I can fall down and I can get back up. Why? Because I know why I'm here. That's the question that a lot of people need to answer when they do fall is, 'Why am I here?' If you can answer that question, you'll be able to dust yourself off and shine like a phoenix out of ashes."
-Michelle Rodriquez
Are You Ready To Change Your Mind?
You're right. It is easier to eat pizza than run on the treadmill. It's easier to turn to ice-cream rather than people for supporters. It's easier to say "Fuck it, I give up" than to say "Fuck this, I can do this."
So you know what? I'm not going to sit here and tell you day after day you can do this. If you don't believe you can, then you can't. That's the honest truth. You need to do this for you. And if you don't want it enough, then you sure as hell won't achieve it. So take the easy way out and remain unhealthy and continue to gain weight because you can't realize you are the only one hurting yourself.
I didn't say it would be easy. I said it'd be worth.

3 Of My Favorite Motivational Quotes By Arnold
“Strength does not come from winning. Your struggles develop your strengths. When you go through hardships and decide not to surrender, that is strength.”
“To be successful, you must dedicate yourself 100% to your training, diet and mental approach."
“The mind is the limit. As long as the mind can envision the fact that you can do something, you can do it, as long as you really believe 100% .”
How can you not love this guy? He's strong, motivating, smart and the Governor of California!

They Say Time Changes Things…

They always say time changes things, but you actually have to change them yourself.

Sounds Like A ‘Keep Walking’ Ad….
The toughest thing about being a success is that you’ve got to keep on being a success.

Accept No Excuses, Just Results
♡
There's a difference between interest and commitment. When you're interested in doing something, you do it only when it's convenient. When you're committed to something, you accept no excuses; only results.
- Kenneth Blanchard
Funny Quote of The Day by Ellen Degeneres

You have to stay in shape. My grandmother, she started walking five miles a day when she was sixty. She’s ninety-seven today and we don’t know where the hell she is.

Nike Better World
I've always loved the advertising for NIKE. They come up the most inspiring and motivational writing for their ad campaigns. Check out the new site for Nike Better World.
This was taken from the video:
Don't tell us what we can't do.
Don't tell us not to dream.
Big fat hairy hairy audacious dreams.
Like making the world better through sport.
Sport is our passion.
Sport reduces disease, lowers crime, rallies communities and denies prejudice.
Sport laughs in the face of racism and flicks a towel on sexism's butt.
Hell, it's even been known to stop wars.
That's a pretty impressive resume.
Sport, you're hired.
We won't rest until everyone on this planet has access to it.
We will make the best gear to propel humanity forward,
without wrecking our global playground in the process.
We will do good with a vengeance.
We're going to be so environmentally friendly it will make you puke.
Think performance and sustainability
hitting off so well they have each other's names tattooed across their chest.
And to all the cynics, we're going to make the world better for you anyway.
Because like sport, we don't discriminate.
We've made the world better
but we still want a better world.
-Nike Better World
