I liken it to working out.  You’re pushing some metal up.  Your arms are burning.  Everything in your body is screaming ‘WTF ARE YOU DOING THIS FOR’.   Your arms are about to give.  Your spotter is saying ‘Come on, just one more!’  It hurts, you want to give up, but you know you can do it.  Finally, you get it past the rack.  DONE!

You feel burnt.  You think ‘Holy Crap! That was fucking hard!’  You do that for a couple of months.  Next thing you know, you’re benching 180, 200, 210… Now you’ve got pecs that would make Hulk Hogan proud.

That’s how I look at it.  Sometimes it just hurts to hear the feedback of your product.  It burns.  It feels like the bar is going to drop on your and you’re going to die.  But you know in the long run, you’ll be on the beach walkin’ around like you’re the ‘Situation’.  yo!
