DM #491: We’re all guilty of it. You, me, everyone. Rehab ain’t sexy, so it tends to take a backseat. But if you looked in that rearview mirror you’d see that your future gains are sitting right there next to that unsexy rehab. Funny how that works.

Far from a soapbox speech tonight, because, like I said, I’m guilty of it too. But the fact of that matter is, when you’ve got something that just won’t go away, be it pain, asymmetry, dysfunction of any kind…ignoring it likely isn’t going to make it get better.
—
Training harder typically just serves to increase that asymmetry as the strong side gets stronger faster than the weaker side can catch up, or, eventually that stronger side craps out from just doing too much, and there go ALL the gainz.
—
I get it. The ‘accessory’ work that I asked you not to call accessory work (DM #486 ?) isn’t as fun as clangin and bangin the iron. So then you know what? Use that as motivation. Do that unsexy stuff (btw, @marcusfilly bout to make ALL that stuff look good though, @revive_rx coming correct), fix your ?, then get back to doing whatever it is you love.
—
Give it the attention it deserves then get back to giving attention to whatever it is that tickles your pickle. The choice is yours.
