Your motivation comes and goes.If you keep waiting for everything to line up perfectly before you start, you’ll be waiting forever.You don’t need the perfect schedule, the perfect diet, or the perfect training plan.You just need to start with what you have, where you are, and get a little better as you go.Stop waiting for the perfect time. Start now. ⏳

It’s become such a habit for me that I never stray from lifting 4x a week, unless I’m too sick (which is maybe once a year). Do you ever take a week off, even as a de-load?
