Weights…

Why do I lift them?

What makes lifting weights so important?

I go to the gym…

I approach the bar, load the bumpers and just before I get under to lift the weight, I feel something. I feel a tickle in my stomach, I feel my hands getting sweaty and my heart beating faster.

I feel all my expectations, getting in line in my mind, waiting for me to move ahead, grasp the (more…)

Tired…

That’s your mind trying to make you rest, take it easy, stay in your comfort zone!

Since I was little I have been involved in sports. I’ve practiced a lot of sports. You name it I did it. Even though my life has always revolved around sports, I always paid attention to school and studying and I never allowed myself to have bad grades. But I always detested the prejudiced point of view of teachers towards athletes. Even without knowing anything about you, when they hear you are an athlete, they put you in the pile with the dumber, the less perspective people and etc. Usually you need to make a big effort to get yourself out of this frame, that is limiting you and stigmatizing you!

I never understood this separation. Why would sport make you dumber? Why would sport limit your intellectual development and send you on the pile of being less than others? You see me walk around school with a basketball and you assume that this is all I am capable of… just dribble around and probably score some points during a game? Do you think that this runs out my whole potential to be something, to become somebody?

For all of you, who have such opinion, I want to explain you what it means to be an athlete. You have the right to (more…)

I am not the kind of person, who says she wants something, but yet her actions don’t match her words!

I am not the kind of person, who go in the gym a couple weeks before the summer, and states she wants to be in shape for the beach!

I am not the kind of person, who blames being overweight and her bad health on inherited, bad genes!

I am not the kind of person, who spends her life being jealous of other people’s success!

I am not the kind of person (more…)

There is no easy way!

If you wanna be great, you have to work hard!

You need to forget about your comfort zone, about giving yourself a rest, about getting by with failure!

If you wanna be great, you got to feel some pain-the pain of discipline, hard work and persistence.

It won’t be easy. I know you will (more…)

The day just started…and my strength is already gone….

I feel tired. I am hardly breathing. Seems like I am struggling to take a breath, trying to get rid of something that weighs like a burden. It is stuck in my chest and it is breathing my oxygen.

My pulse is racing. My heart is beating faster and harder. Just like my thoughts are rushing through my mind- they are rushing to remind me about their existence and leave behind them a loud echo, that is deafening everything around.

The bar is heavy, but (more…)

What are you hungry for?

We think that we are hungry for a better body!

We confuse ourselves that we are hungry for a better job…

We think we are hungry for more friends to count on…

We use food for comfort, when we truly need a caring word, a shoulder to cry and a helping hand to give us strength to get back up!

We dedicate everything (more…)
