Physique Coaches Scott Tousignant and Bryan Krahn share their thoughts on common phrases heard around the gym, such as BEAST Mode. What sparked this discus was a conversation that Bryan started on Facebook. Here's what he had to say,"Hope in my lifetime we see the end of this shit. There is absolutely nothing "hardcore" about training hard or heavy or following a strict diet. It takes time and commitment and effort, yes, and certainly the ability to delay gratification. But it is not "hardcore" and certainly not fucking "beast mode."Going overseas to serve your country in some bombed-out hellhole is hardcore. So is working three jobs to support your family. Or getting up at 3 am to write for 2 hours before your kids get up. Pushing a fricken Prowler or doing deadlifts? That's a luxury. Interestingly, 99% of the people who have this "training is war!" attitude are the most insecure about their bodies and usually look painfully average in real life. Whereas those who have fun with their training & lifestyle and see it for what it is -- an incredible gift -- tend to make far better long term progress. Beast mode? More like wanna-beast."Now, we'd love to hear your thoughts on the subject!Visit the Jacked After 40 websitehttps://www.jackedafter40.com/Do you have a topic you’d like us to cover in a future episode?
