Revvin' up your engine……Listen to her howlin' roar
Metal under tension……Beggin' you to touch and go
Highway to the Comfort Zone…Ride into the Comfort Zone
Out along the edges, Always where I burn to be…..The further on the edge, The hotter the intensity
Gonna take it right into the Comfort Zone
Yeah, I know it’s not quite the same song when you add in “Comfort” is it?
Doesn’t quite take you to Top Gun - where when the movie is over you go buy cool aviator sun glasses to wear in a bar and spout verbatim random movie lines with your buddies at the gayest moments.
Add in comfort and it’s like watching the movie on TBS with 40, seven-minute long commercial breaks and all the sex scenes cut out. Afterwards all you can think of is what Kelly McGillis looks like now and the fact that she is NOT a hot lesbian...it would've been better if she would have announced she was gay 20 years ago....just sayin'....
Your workouts aren’t going to be the same if you stay in your Comfort Zone – there is no place for the Comfort Zone in the gym. PERIOD.
Good athletes know that you are going to have to be OK with being uncomfortable when you train. Success and being uncomfortable are like peanut butter and jelly. The Comfort Zone will make you soft – or keep you soft if you are just starting out.
There are hundreds of ways to train – but there is only ONE attitude to train with. Skip the comfort, make the gains, reap the rewards.
Next time you are training don’t stop when you get winded on that sprint, take a few more steps.
Don’t be scared of being uncomfortable – embrace it, call it lovingly to you. “Here pain, pain, pain. Come here girl, that’s it….crawl right into my lap!” If you fall seven times you need to get up eight. (Japanese Proverb)
Pain of regret or pain of discipline…it’s your choice. The plaque for the alternates is down in the ladies room.....that was Iceman in case you haven't seen the movie ;-)
