How do I become mentally strong?

And it’s exactly how it sounds.

In the same way that you can’t go to the gym, deadlift 225 lbs. for 5 reps one week and then expect to lift 405 lbs. for 5 reps the next week, you can’t expect to just wake up one day and be as mentally strong

It’s 7 days of almost no sleep, constant physical exercise, and psychological warfare.

It’s funny to me how often people ignore this principle in their lives.

Why is the internet so restrictive? Why is it impossible to find a place where you can express yourself fully?

Another great way to boost your mental

Anytime you’re training in the gym, challenge yourself, once per workout, to do just “One more rep”.

Leave a bowl of candy on the table. Leave an open pack of cigarettes in your office. Go to an, *ahem* “gentlemanly” website and leave it open in a minimized browser.

DON’T do this on the bench press or squat rack if you don’t have a spotter (there’s nothing mentally tough about breaking your back or killing yourself ok?)

6. Wake Up Earlier (Without Sleeping Less)

Here are a few ideas to get you started .

But anytime you’re doing an exercise where you can safely push yourself, go for just ONE more rep than you’re comfortable doing.

It’s simply learning to be comfortable doing things you don’t want to do.

Start small in 10–15 minute increments and eventually, you’ll be waking up at 4:30 a.m. like a Navy SEAL.

Sitting down for 5–30 minutes and doing NOTHING is way harder than it sounds.

5. Give Up a Vice

While I don’t recommend giving up sleep for a week and doing thousands of pushups (unless you have a thing for broken bones and screwed up joints), I challenge you to create your own Hell Week.

Cold showers suck. I’ve taken them (almost) everyday for nearly 6 years and they don’t suck any less today than they did when I started.

Challenge yourself to do something seemingly impossible for a short amount of time and you will walk away with more mental toughness than you’ve ever had before.

There’s nothing quite like intentionally subjecting yourself to frigid waters and saying “No” to the wonderful warmth of a hot shower when it’s only one twist of the handle away requires insane amounts of discipline and grit.

Do just ONE more rep when you don’t think you can.
