Hey /fit/
Is there anything you tell to yourself before you crush a big ass weight? Idioms and shit like that to get you in the zone, whether it be a 1RM or a new 5 rep max. Personally, here's mine
> Bless us, O Lord, and these, Thy gainz, which we are about to receive from Thy bounty. Through Christ, our Lord. Amen.

DISEMBOWEL THE MESSENGER OF PEACE
DRAG THE BODIES OF THE PACIFISTS
BURN THE INNOCENT
BLOOD FOR THE BLOOD GOD
SKULLS FOR THE SKULL THRONE

>When im alone
FOR THE EMPEROR
>When im with my gymbro, who's an xcom fan
VIGILO CONFIDO (every rep)
Gonna sound gay but I have a picture of

I also like to think of fitness as my religion and approach workouts with the mental state that a monk or ascetic might approach their duties in service of a high power.
Of course it is also nice to read some philosphy specifically with relation to strength - Mishima, Socrates, Sri Chinmoy - and look at some pictures of aesthetic statues.
