The problem with this is that you are a bag of flesh and water, not iron. It’s a metaphor that has zero connection to the reality of training. Obviously training hard is important, but recovery is equally important - if your recovery is shit, you are limiting how hard you can actually work.
So yes, iron is forged in a fire, but a successful athlete is forged on the sofa as much as they are by the weight room. Ditch the cringey metaphors and start training smart.
Iron is forged in the fire, not the couch, so I’d prefer to see this through rather than scale back down.
