Thank you for your kind words Joseph :) Yes I do get up at 04:30 and start my day with lifting. I agree with you. This practice has brought a lot of peace into my life. I also think that lifting regularly made me a more self-disciplined person. Also maybe because I can not “cheat” myself. The weight can never change. I can not blame it on the weather when my performance drops (like I could do with running) but always need to reevaluate my behaviors outside the gym to figure out why my body is slowing down or not in the form I would like it to be.
