Arnold Schwarzenegger's ideas on Discipline, collected in one place with clear source context.
"I don't do things halfway. I'm very obsessive."
"Every rep counts, every set counts, every meal counts."
"If you don't find the time, if you don't do the work, you don't get the results."
"Bodybuilding is much like any other sport. To be successful, you must dedicate yourself 100% to your training, diet and mental approach."
"The last three or four reps is what makes the muscle grow. This area of pain divides the champion from someone else who is not a champion."
"The resistance that you fight physically in the gym and the resistance that you fight in life can only build a strong character."
"You can't expect to see results if you only put in the work on the days you feel like it."
"Rest is for the weak. You can sleep when you're dead."
"Just remember, you can't climb the ladder of success with your hands in your pockets."
"There is no magic pill. There is only the work. You have to do the reps."
"Pain makes me grow. Growing is what I want. Therefore, for me pain is pleasure."
"I welcome the pain because I know that the pain is necessary to be a champion."
"The only way to be a champion is by going through these forced reps and the torture and the pain."
"I welcome the pain. I don't know why, but I just like the pain."
