I started lifting weights 4 years ago. I started reading Starting Strength (2nd edition) by Mark Rippetoe 15 months ago, and I started training according to his guidance 12 months ago.

You have decided to get into the best shape of your life. You have been working out for two or three years now, and yet you are still scrawny. It’s time to change, to start anew. But 5 days from now, it’s back to normal. You miss a workout because you have too much work, [...]

Do you like to do most of the things you have to do everyday? I am sure you already know that you have to love doing something in order to do it well. But how can you get yourself to love doing something? Consider this: you’ve been lying in bed for nearly an hour, and [...]
