There is a side effect of lifting weights that people often overlook...
"Feel the burn" is a common phrase used to encourage mind-muscle connection and muscle fatigue in order to break down and build muscles, since the "burn" indicates that the exercise is working. (Assuming the right things are burning!)
Something transformative happens when we fall in love with "feeling the burn" - we begin to seek it out in our daily lives. We confront and embrace challenge. We run towards obstacles instead of away from them, because we know "the burn" is how we grow and get stronger. We know we can do hard things, and we will become better for it.
The self-discipline, self-confidence, and self-development we gain from achieving and maintaining a fitness routine impacts all aspects of our lives. When we know that we can rely on ourselves to persevere, we can then face something that tests our limits, and create new ones.
And that, is true strength.
