Arnold Schwarzenegger — “Anything is Possible”
“The only way to be a champion is by going through these forced reps and the torture and pain. That’s why I call it the torture routine. Because it’s like forced torture. Torturing my body. What helps me is to think of this pain as pleasure. Pain make me grow. Growing is what I want. Therefore, for me pain is pleasure. And so when I am experiencing pain I’m in heaven. It’s great. People suggest this is masochistic. But they’re wrong. I like pain for a particular reason. I don’t like needle’s stuck in my arm. But I do like the pain that is necessary to be a champion.”
– Arnold Schwarzenegger
Some serious motivation right there from the big man himself. Time to stop making excuses and trudge my way through the snow to my freezing garage to bust out todays sets.
