How to Build a Jacked Back, Grow Your Triceps, and Leave a Lasting Legacy – Episode 457

Posted by Jason Ferruggia

What are you committed to? 

Becoming the best or your excuses?

Are you inspiring others and making people better? 

Or are you half-assing your way through life with no real purpose? 

You’ve gotta go all in at whatever it is you do.

It’s not easy.

I know. I deal with temptations, stress, and adversity just like you. 

It’s the choices you make daily that will determine whether you’re able to rise above the bullsh*t and leave a lasting legacy, or fold under the pressure of life and fade into mediocrity. 

Don’t fold. 

I’ve got a few tips to help you dominate all aspects of your life in today’s Q&A, and of course, plenty of training insight.
