Today, I’m going to teach you my four part pre-lift routine my athletes value more than any other. Successful lifters create stability in their lifts - both physical and mental. Without that stability you will imagine failed lifts, have distracting thoughts, and ultimately fail too many reps you should be able to hit.

Whether you are proud of the athlete you become or not, depends entirely on your mindset. Not your physical capacity.
