    How the hell do you motivate yourself to give 100%?

    Typing this at the gym. I noticed that, given the time, I actually have no problem bringing myself over to the gym. The problem is going hard when I go to the gym. I used to have a personal trainer and I see him every now and then when I go to the gym (AF). He rightfully pointed out that...
