"It's my life. It's now or never. I ain't gonna live forever. I just want to live while I'm alive."- "It's My Life," Bon Jovi

Now take a quick 5 minutes of your day to give this video a listen. You're always gonna feel pain, we all do, but you have to keep going. No matter what, you can't stop.

Workout of the Week

Hack For Big Back

It is well known that having a well built and cut back is a great asset to your physique. we're going to give you guys a hot take but to us, the back is one of the best looking parts of a human body. To help you achieve your dream looking back, we're giving you a full back workout.

Disclaimer: This workout will focus on your lats and traps. To build a full back, it's important to grow your rear delts, but we already covered this muscle in a workout a couple weeks ago.

Warm-up

  • Cross your fingers and reach in front of you as far as you can until you feel a good warming stretch in your lats and general back. Do this for around 30 seconds to warm your back muscles properly.

Section one

  • 5-10 pull ups or assisted pull ups

  • 3 mins rest

Repeat 4 times

Section two

  • 10 reps of close grip lat pulldowns

  • 1 min rest

  • 8 reps of seated cable rows

  • 2 mins rest

Repeat 3 times

Section three

  • 8 reps of barbell upright rows

  • 8 reps of T-Bar Land Mine Rows (lift heavy with this one)

  • 2 mins rest

  • 12 reps of dumbbell Shrugs

Repeat 3 times

Cooldown

  • Repeat the Warm-up for about 1 minute to be sure to stretch the muscles you just exercised.

Now Let's get to Work!

Hip Abduction Machine

If you begin with this one, lift lighter. If you go too heavy, you’ll injure your hip joints and that’s not good! We know some of you think you’re going to look weird when using this machine, put your ego to the side, your dream body isn’t going to come by itself!

Daily Self Growth Tip:

Build Resilience:

Develop resilience by learning how to bounce back from setbacks.Life isn’t always going to be fair. In fact, it’s rarely gonna be. So adapt or it’s going to beat you to the ground and leave you weak. When a setback occurs, tell yourself, how am I gonna get back up from this? A failure is not the end, it’s part of the process.

    Workout song of the day: Paramedic! by SOB X RBE

    This song from the first Black Panther movie is a real gym banger. Just look at Chadwick Boseman, the first black panther actor. He suffered from cancer, but he kept shooting movies. He kept the grind, he didn’t give up until the end, he’s a true king. We all should follow his example and keep up the grind even when it becomes hard.
