From a girl full of 𝘀𝗲𝗹𝗳-𝗵𝗮𝘁𝗲... ...to a girl 𝗳𝗲𝗲𝗹𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗽𝗿𝗼𝘂𝗱 of her wins. 𝘞𝘩𝘢𝘵 𝘤𝘩𝘢𝘯𝘨𝘦𝘥? A complete mindset switch. I had to question everything: My beliefs, perspectives, approaches, way of thinking, reactions… I had to let go of many, so I could learn and build new ones. The ones that will serve me better and help me live this beautiful life I have. Even if a lot has changed when it comes to my mindset… I'm still improving and will be doing so for the rest of my life. BUT What was 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗺𝗮𝗶𝗻 𝘀𝗲𝗰𝗿𝗲𝘁 that helped me with my transformation? ➝ Building a 𝗙𝗜𝗧 𝗠𝗜𝗡𝗗𝗦𝗘𝗧. I used every lesson from my gym sessions and reverse-engineered it for my personal growth. From accepting mistakes, building persistence, setting goals, and finding solutions to shaping a healthy way of loving myself. It all came with a great bonus too. I’ve built a body I 𝘦𝘯𝘫𝘰𝘺 𝘭𝘪𝘷𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘪𝘯 and 𝘴𝘦𝘦𝘪𝘯𝘨 in the mirror. I want to help you do the same. Show you how to 𝗹𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗿𝗮𝗴𝗲 𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗿𝘆 𝘄𝗼𝗿𝗸𝗼𝘂𝘁 from your fitness journey to upgrade yourself.

It's not only the latter D, it's something more interesting 😌 open.substack.com/pub/simplyiva/…

I call it - knowing your worth.

@kevinfengcs88 Oh yes haha something like this

@IvaInspires Discomfort is always a sign of growth! The fact that I cannot walk after leg day is a good sign ;)

You don’t question the soreness after leg day. You know it means something’s changing. But when life hurts, you think something’s wrong. What if the discomfort is just growth without a pump cover?

Stop being two different people: Gym you VS. Life you Start being the same disciplined, resilient person EVERYWHERE. open.substack.com/pub/simplyiva/…

@kevinfengcs88 Absolutely. Removing negative things and distractions can move us forward more than we realize.

@IvaInspires "Cutting" doesn't always mean losing body weight. It also means dropping any habits that don't serve you anymore.

At the gym you can't just bulk then cut forever. Same like you can't just add good habits without removing what's holding you back.

@kevinfengcs88 Love this! We all have to start somewhere :)

The first thing you need to do as a writer is not to build a daily writing habit. It's to break that false belief that you have nothing valuable to share. You don't have to be an expert. You just need to have some experience that someone else doesn't.

@FitFounder Daaamn I'm strong haha 💪🏼

If you can hang from a bar for one minute you're stronger than 80% of males in America.

@hpfounder Oh I just have to add the last 2, nice! 💪🏼

The Best Anti-Aging Exercises: · Squat · Deadlift · Pull-Ups · Lunges · Hip thrusts · Back Rows · Bench Press · Overhead presses · Zone 2 cardio · Sprinting

@thejustinwelsh Time and location flexibility is still underrated.

My favorite business model is the one where work feels optional.

@PhilMaerz That's why I put fruits on my table instead 😂 I love snacking and I made it work for me not against me haha

If cookies are on your desk, you’ll eat cookies. Stop blaming willpower — fix your environment

You wouldn't walk into the gym without a plan, right? So why do you start your day without one?

@kevinfengcs88 You will master both I don't doubt it 😎

@IvaInspires Nah, I haven't even mastered body composition yet. Need to drop my body fat % still haha

You've mastered BODY composition but your LIFE composition is a mess.

@kevinfengcs88 That's so true! And it's nice once you realize it 😌

@IvaInspires It all starts with trying to look good for others. But you ultimately stay to tame your mind.

You start lifting weights for vanity, stay for therapy, and then develop mental mastery.

@TheAlanHsieh Love to hear that! 💪🏼 What's the best thing you got from fit mindset?

@IvaInspires Facts haha. Mental mastery at this point.

@itscristabraun hehe :D

@IvaInspires Ain’t that the truth :)

@kevinfengcs88 You just have to use it to your advantage ;)

@IvaInspires You don't have to sacrifice everything else for the sake of building your body!!

I spent 5 years watching people master their bodies while their lives fell apart. Always strong in the gym but... Weak everywhere else. Here's the missing part 👇🏼 open.substack.com/pub/simplyiva/…
