For years, I’ve noted great quotes that would motivate me in so many different areas of life. Now that I’ve made lifting weights a required part of training, I thought it would fun to find some great strength training quotes!
It turns out there are maybe less of these than about so many other things.
And yet, I was pretty stoked with the ones that I found. I know these 40 quotes about strength training will give you a boost! Just that extra reason to show up when you’re tired, to choose it when you’d rather go for a run.
Because in the end, the reason you show is to be better tomorrow than you are today.
Why Strength Training Quotes Work So Well
Science says this is why we so love those strength quotes:
- It’s like hearing someone else say they believe in you
- It’s like having a coach in your head to guide you through
- We know word choice matters in our training (have to vs get to)
- We like having role models, they give us things to aspire to
- They help us convey to others feelings we often can’t put into words
It’s easy to get caught up in the logistics behind achieving goals. The numbers, the miles, the hours spent, the grueling early mornings or late nights, the injuries – that we sometimes lose track of why we started the journey, to begin with.
Hopefully…
