The first 15 years of my working life was in a manual labor job (as a pipe fitter.) I laugh when people tell me my 3-hour-a-day exercise routine (6 days a week) is overtraining. 1.5 hrs doing (one lift a day) & 1.5 hrs running on the beach, working on speed and power along the way (Plyos, uphill mud sprints, and whatever else I can dream up.) Compared to shouldering 6" schedule 40 pipes and walking them up ladders all day, that's a piece of cake. Oh, and BTW, my back was fine. The real pain started when I stopped and got into a desk job.
Hi Rob, I have many family members who have worked very physically demanding jobs and myself I run and own my own restaurant, I work 80h/7 days a week. Our bodies actually like working hard, and over the years and decades builds incredible resilience. When my brother stopped working a physical job he got fat lol. Many other family members who stopped working hard had pains and ailments developing one after the other... People are afraid of hard work and make up reasons like it's bad for your health. There is nothing wrong with working very hard, it is good for you.
@@akpowerlifting My hats off to you, sir! Running a successful restaurant is challenging; only some here in South Fla survive. After I stopped working in the field, I developed sciatica ( like your brother I got a little to chubby)and shoulder impingement in both shoulders. When I got back to moving more and lifting, all this went away mostly. I still have a little pain in the right shoulder on low-bar squats. While I agree that overuse issues are a thing, underuse was the cause of my pain.
Started last year, at age 35 now i have abs to "show off" at the beach this summer. Let's go never thought abs and Sterlin Nelson would come together. I'm just getting started and grateful i made fitness 5% of my life moving forward for me and my family.
❤listening to this after running which I didn't wanted to do makes so much sense. I always feel great after running and lift specially when I didn't wanted to do it but I do it anyway. Love from Ind❤
Hung out the whole podcast haha. It is funny how you can train your butt off for anything. And when you stop. Your body only wants to go back down to baseline
I think forcing yourself to do something that doesnt make u feel good is will power. If you like to Drink and u say no for delayed gratification that means u build willpower.
