The road to failure is paved with good intentions. --- this should be a quote --- look it up...

training philosophy --- this concept of no pain, no gain is archaic, primitive, and rooted in ignorance. By training smarter, you can forgo this silly mantra and learn to challenge yourself in a way that your body can adapt (not break down). Let me be clear, it's not easy. But it doesn't have to feel like punishment. Learn to listen to your body. Learn to use your most powerful muscle, your mind, to challenge yourself, find success, and challenge yourself again. It's through this Challenge-Success Cycle that you grow in strength, develop skill, and build the confidence necessary to achieve your goals. The challenges you give yourself may not always be pleasant, but you will be better for them. You should never judge the quality of the workout by how sore it makes you.
