For those of us that workout, our goal each time is to push the limit of our stamina. Whether measured in reps, minutes, or miles, most of us continue to push the limits of our body. But what if I told you it was not your body setting those limits? What if I told you it was really your mind?
The mind is a very powerful tool. It is so powerful, that it’s greatest trick is making us forget it exists at all. We run as far as we can. As soon as we start to breathe heavy, sweat, and our limbs tire, we know we are pushing the limits. But again, the limits of what? Have you ever just kept going when you think you can’t any longer? The trick is, you can, and you know it.

Many of us have already taken the step to put some sort of exercise routine into our life. If you have not already, I would highly suggest it. You don’t have to go out right away and be Rocky. You can simply start off with a healthy walk. However, this post is for those of us trying to balance our workout with our life.
I train in Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, Muay Thai, and MMA (Mixed Martial Arts). It is a very demanding workout each time I train, but there is much to be learned from pushing your body like I do. The most important thing I learned is how to take care of it in order to avoid injuries while still getting the most out of my workout.
