Building the foundation

Since I was in Mexico a few weeks ago…
The pyramid at Chichen Itza was built somewhere around 1,500 years ago and still stands in remarkably good condition today.
I consider strength training and building a strong body that is going to last similar to building a pyramid. Start by building a broad, solid foundation of strength and technique before adding layers of blocks on top. As your strength levels soar, take care to expand your foundation so it can support the ever higher levels of strength!

The strength game is measured in months and years, decades if you’re successful, not workouts, days, or weeks.
