"Your mentality is a big piece of it. And if you're so stressed about how hard a workout is going to be, you might never end up doing it. Even now the majority of my workouts are very low intensity. But that allows me to get a lot of volume in because I'm never stressing about what I have to do next."
Especially the part about, "even now, the majority of my workouts are very low intensity." I know I give into the temptation to do too much, too fast, too quickly, because I think it's what I "should" do (for some reason). Great stuff.
Also, I'll definitely have to pick up the book recommendation! Thanks for that!
