This is probably the hardest pill for some people to swallow. You can have all the tools, all the knowledge, all the support, everything, given to you…but at the end of the day it’s an inside job.
The tools and the support, those do make it easier – but the work has to be put in by you. This isn’t a post about ‘hustle culture’ – this is about your own mind. What you think about yourself everyday can make or break the person you are, the person you become.
I know I like to keep things light on this blog, and I know I focus on military nutrition and fitness…but with that, I can also say in my life and my career, I’ve seen some real close, good people be lost to their own mind – their own thoughts – even with the love and support of others…and even today, I’m still pulling for them, focusing on them getting the strength to pull themselves up and out whatever it is they’re in.
Mental mettle comes with looking inward.
Look inward, let go of the old, and start with being whatever is it you’d like to be. It’s not easy but it’s like working out – you see the results once you get the momentum going.
If you’ve already bought the guides (hey, thanks), and like the free knowledge gained on the SUPP UP. blog – then go ahead and check out the other gear in my shop.
Pick up some whey protein for your next workout, new threads for that sleeve-splitting arms day, or something else that’ll help you remember that when it comes to fueling and training your body, once you learn how to, where you are matters less.
It’s a good way to keep the blog running healthy and strong. Every item, the material, colors, style, ingredients, and quality, were all hand picked by me.
You’ve already bought all the gear and guides? Well damn – thanks. Not looking for anything in particular in return? Then go ahead and donate whatever you like.
One more thing – if you go ahead and get the guides, you’ll discover what’s unique to each book recipes are available under the “Snacks” chapters (preview of chapters available in shop), and how to eliminate worries or concerns about getting the nutrition you need to stay fighting fit for when you’re deployed or at home.
Both books have recipes that provide nutritional breakdown so it makes things nice and easy.
Drop by next week for yet another great post to add to your workout and nutrition arsenal.
Stop doing guesswork, start making the necessities of your life easier.
