This is the literal same term I use while weight lifting. I channel all pain and rage into the lift. It sounds crazy, but it works since a lot of athletic activity is about training your mind in the first place.
My workout buddy says he can see it on my face when I’m in the cold fury.
- abound 3y agoSame here. Weightlifting for me is sometimes more of a mental workout than a physical workout. Getting oneself into the headspace to "go for broke" on that final set is crazy taxing and requires a ton of focus, especially for full body lifts like squat and deadlift. I find lifting moderates my mood more than anything, it's hard to be angry when you've thrown all that emotional energy into a set.
