Getting strong is important. A lot of people like to focus on "general fitness" (whatever that means) in their training, without realizing that fitness simply means the ability to complete a task. As you have probably figured out by now, just about any task you can think of is a lot easier to complete when you're strong. Hard to argue with that.

Here are a few things you need to keep in mind to get stronger:

(and by "here" I clearly mean "in the episode itself", so stop reading FFS and go listen!)

Let's be clear: if you're going out of town for, like, a day or two, no need to worry about missing a workout.

But what if you're going to be out of town for a week, two weeks, or even a month or so?

AND, what do you do if the regular equipment you'd otherwise have access to may be tough to come by? Do you just give up on your gains and slide back to square one?

Hardly, friendo. Pat and I will show you the glorious way forward to Gainsville (not the Florida one, the figurative one) in this fine episode.

I'm joined on this fine episode by none other than the legendary Tom Morrison - mobility and flexibility expert and all-around Irish gent.

In much the same way that some of the best things in life are free, some of the best bodyweight moves are the ones that everyone ignores because they don't look "sexy". However, if you're looking to do more pullups, more dips, heavier military presses, reduce low-back discomfort, or what have you, the moves I talk about in this mighty fine podcast are just a few that you should try.

The wise and mighty Earl Nightengale once said:

"Whatever the majority of people is doing, under any given circumstances, if you do the exact opposite, you will probably never make another mistake as long as you live."

Sagely words. And every bit as accurate for your strength training as for your business, relationships, and life as a whole.

To make progress, look at what others are doing & then do the opposite.

One of the biggest mental shifts you should make in your fitness journey is taking a step away from "beast mode" (i.e. all hard workouts all the time) to "least mode".

I dish on more in this podcast. Tune the F in already!

I wouldn't say I'm feeling dour or pessimistic by writing an article with such a title, but you know what? Sometimes you've just gotta forget the spoonful of sugar and dole out the medicine. So I'll say it like this:

If you're still talking about all the changes you're gonna make this year (and haven't taken any meaningful steps toward them), just quit already.

But if you're NOT ready to throw in the towel...well, then listen on.
