“When you put your mind to lifting, it does yield a measurable outcome, according to a 2005 study published in the Journal of Strength and Conditioning Research. More specifically, psyching up may increase force production during the bench press.

New Zealand researchers investigated the effect of psyching up on force production during the bench press by having 12 men and eight women with strength-training experience perform five reps after being distracted, while paying attention or after psyching themselves up in a manner of their choosing.

The result: Psyching up increased peak force by 11.8% compared to being distracted and 8.1% compared to paying attention.” - Carey Rossi

Create a mantra in your mind or an internal dialogue! “Train insane or remain the same”… find something that motivates you and USE IT!!!
