Train for Strength, Not Aesthetics

Train for Strength, Not Aesthetics

The rise of social platforms such as Instagram and Facebook have allowed individuals to post pictures of their seemingly perfect bodies, enabling a culture of aesthetics over everything. Such a culture has intoxicated the reasons for training. We no longer train to be better, to be stronger, to feel good, to move freely. We now train to obtain that perfect six-pack so that we can post a picture posing on the beach. We train to look good, we train to garner compliments, to get likes. Yes, looking better is a result of working out, but it should not be more than just a byproduct of training. Training to be physically stronger on the other hand, has numerous positive implications.

Give Yourself a Break

Give Yourself a Break

In today's world, where criticism of others is at an all-time high, it is easy to forget we are human. Social media has allowed us to comment on each other easily. We pass sly digs at each other without much thought. The interactions we have with each other are emotionless and empty. A world where criticism is not the exception, but the norm makes it easy to be harsh ourselves. Why do we criticize ourselves when there is no shortage of criticism? Why do we continue to put ourselves down when there is no one to pick us up? Why do we pass so much judgement? To err is human, to be perfect. Unrealistic.

It is important to pick yourself up, it is essential to be your own support. Occasionally, give yourself a break! You must realize that no one will be your motivation, no one will love you like you.
