You prepare yourself, harvest knowledge, feed your body right, do your homework, and then give your best effort to the Iron.
But you don't chase PRs every workout, you don't try to be who you were yesterday— you take what is there, and accept the hand you've been dealt with grace.
One day you'll be stronger, one day you'll be weaker— 'cause you're not the same person, every time you bang that iron.
You don't shoot for being the same weight you were 10 years ago— you're not the same person.
You apply yourself, diligently— consistently over time— and accept whichever results you’re given for it.
That's what lifting stoically is all about.
STAY ON THE IRON PATH, STAY HARD - Mr. Potato
