Here’s a final set of presses for my chest training. When hitting peak fatigue, I’ll do two rest pauses and as many half reps as I can at the end. CONTROL THE WEIGHT - ESPECIALLY at the end when you’re so f*cking fatigued and all you got left is your grit and guts 🤪 - that’s the time to really CONTROL YOUR FORM. At this point it’s all mental flow state through the pain - and that’s where the magic happens. On the other side of is your pain, is your greatness. Then we’ll cry together after the set 😭😂 🤜🏾🤛🏼 As I said in my other post, I took a full year to drop approximately 50lbs (to play my character in Benny Safdie’s Lizard Music”) going from 285lbs which was my weight for filming “The Smashing Machine” to my current weight of 234lbs. Wanted to take my time and cut the weight in a smart, wise way that didn’t involve anything extreme or any kind of crash cutting. Doing it this way created a great opportunity for me to become super acutely attuned to my body - mentally/spiritually and of course physically. It’s also given me a completely new perspective on the “mind muscle connection” that we as athletes are always chasing. Full sovereignty over my trials, errors and progress. That’s the way we want it. I’ll post more training/training philosophy vids as I’m able to. And can’t wait to expand this overall conversation with all you guys about training, health, nutrition, wellness, peak performance etc - when we launch @ProjectRock 10.0 🗡️ 🛡️ — @therock TikTok
